OT but hey.
I have been nagging a longtime friend to buy a Tesla for years, all the way back to 2013 when I got my first S. And he's very frugal and bought used cars in the interim, never indulged in any fancy stuff, but I started noticing a chink in the armor in 2019 and kept at it, offering my referral code, really working on winning him over.
Today he forwards me an email and the subject line is
He ordered a Model Y. Last week he was set on a 3, and then yesterday he emailed asking, "For eight thousand more I could buy a Model Y. Maybe I should get the Y?" and of course I did not discourage him from moving in that direction.
His explanation for buying a Tesla in 2020? After me pestering him for YEARS to get one?
"There's no sense in buying a gasoline vehicle any more."
This is an historic day. He is not an early adopter. This bodes very well for Tesla.
