Does anyone know what’s going on? Is tesla trying to force us into new model 3?
Not a chance, no way they’re going to force me into one of those cars and don’t make the S interior look like a 3 either..

Seattle *new* inventory went from 17 cars to 1 in a single day. I highly doubt they sold 16 Model S cars in a single day. Obvious market manipulation.
As the OP, and having watched the official Tesla Used Model S for sale in the US drop from 1200 models in Feb. to about 100 now, I am stunned.
Been advising my father-in-law on a P85d or P90d, we've literally seen that model price RISE 20% from Dec 2018 until now. I feel terrible for my advice to him. Worse, there is no used inventory left in Red. There used to be 60 at a time.
There have been a lot of theories here, but no one really knows why this dynamic happened or what the summer holds. Certainly clear to me that Tesla, Inc. wants out of the used S market. Until evidence proves otherwise, the "Tesla Model S CPO/Used" appears to be over.
RIP Tesla MS CPO/Used Inventory (2015-2019)....was a wild ride!

Prices on new are hard to resist. A co-worker was looking for an inventory car and is so glad he wasn't in a rush.

Ever heard of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson? The F16 graveyard. I figured Tesla could use it for Model S. Better that than selling them for $50k or les
Please try not to be insulting on these or any other digital forum. My post was neither sarcasm nor silly. Perfectly reasonable possible conclusion. You can disagree, offer other ideas (as you have in other posts) but do not personally insult someone.Sooo, if Tesla doesn’t want to earn money on pre-owned cars, who will? What will they do with all the trade-ins then? Park them in Arizona? Use them for parts? Launch them to outer space?
You’re either being sarcastic or totally out of whack.
That is real talent. Thank you for sharing.Got lucky out trying to get a Milky Way shot of the TeslaView attachment 408373 when a storm rolled in..

Which part was insulting? The fact that I called your conclusion out of whack? Because it is? It’s a shame you can’t call things their real name in this country anymore. My apologies!
You might be right. Certainly some decision was made inside Tesla vis a vis the used market and what they would support. Could be a 1 quarter strategy or two. But they are testing something....Conspiracy theory, don't flame me.
Could it be that Tesla is trying to push out all the existing inventory for new cars made after 4/23? thus holding back on used inventory.
People placed orders after 4/23/2019, many of them have not received their VIN yet. That got me thinking.
It's not anything about "this country anymore", it is about being kind, which works anywhere, anytime.
You called me "out of whack", not my conclusions. Neither of us know what is happening to this market. So ideas are worth discussing.
If you want to apologize, give a real one, not a backhanded one.
Shrug. If you can go back and re-read your post and just check its tone, you might understand how apocalyptic it sounds and how much panic it could induce in a random reader of this thread. I don’t want people to make impulse decisions and buy an overpriced S just cause someone wrote “RIP to used Teslas” in a panic tone. Let’s finish this argument here .
