Careful bull
I traded in my P85D for a P100D a few days ago, and there were a few minor items that Tesla service is going to take care of during an appointment in late Jan.
So I was quite dismayed to be told by my service center that Tesla will no longer be offering Tesla loaners starting in January; only cars via enterprise. I told them I was disappointed by this change, and they said they were too, but the decision came from above.
...
The only solution I've come up with is if Tesla offers Tesla loaners with a daily fee that is subsidized by whatever the amount Tesla would otherwise pay enterprise. I'm disappointed by this decision, even though I understand it. All of the other high end manufacturers provide brand loaners, or more accurately, the dealers of those brands do. I'd hate to see NADA use this as an example on the benefits of a franchised dealer in between the customer and the manufacturer.
Has anyone else been told this by their service center (yet)?
What are your thoughts?
Does anyone else have any other ideas?

Porsche doesn't provide ANY loaners here in Toronto. They'll drop you off if you're within 15 min drive, or pay for a taxi (or give you taxi cheat), one way, or both, if you don't feel uncomfortable asking twice.
And I never got out of there with under $1000 bill. Last estimate for my 2004 turbo was $15K, to do everything they suggest
BMW used to be worse, if I remember, been awhile.
