Buying a Tesla is like buying a computer. Yes, you can keep waiting for the next improvement but then you will never have a computer.Yeah ofcourse its an iterative process. But I would really love it for her to get the 4680 structural battery. I have not been trading Tesla recently so not in the know about when it is finally expected to arrive
She should buy the car when she needs a car. There is nothing wrong with the cars from Fremont. The two we have had since 2018 are still like new. If she already has a reliable car and just wants a nicer/more ecological one, then she could go either way. But she should be aware that it's still going to be about the same car from a practical perspective. But to get it she will have to be without it for a lot longer.
So it really comes down to when she wants to take ownership. IMO, the sooner the better for quality of life reasons. And it might be hard to get a Texas car in San Fran if Fremont is still making Model Y's by then. Because there is a cost with shipping cars, enviro and monetary.
