      I had Tesla sales reps at my WeWork office one week back in like 2019 iirc. They had a very aggressive sales campaign for a while at least. One even offered to have me test drive a Model 3 right their in the parking garage, which I declined.

      So yes, they were making it very easy. Have you ever had car salesman show up at your office?

      Many bought the thing 5+ years ago when Tesla was basically the only electric with a real charging network…

      Until relatively recently, if you were an American who wanted to buy an electric car and wanted to guarantee you wouldn’t be stranded somewhere with a dead battery, Tesla was literally the only option.

          K live in your fantasy bubble and revise history all you want, not even a decade ago Teslas were considered very good cars, and the only viable electric option for some. Not hard to figure out why people bought them then, just like it’s not hard to figure out why people are selling them now.

              Dude, relax, you’re fighting with people that agree with you that Elon is a Nazi piece of shit. If a bunch of people that agree with you, more or less, are downvoting you and saying that your anger on this one is misplaced, maybe it’s time to look inward.

              Let people realize they made a mistake, jeez. That’s all this is. People made an uninformed decision, and are now realizing their mistake. You never made a mistake before? Jfc

                Im chill as Bob Dylan on penicillin. I simply have zero tolerance for Nazis or Nazi sympathizers. It’s cool people realize they made a mistake, but they are simply realizing the extreme costs of supporting a Nazi.

                Your weird attempt at labeling gaslighting sure as hell didn’t work dude.

                Even if you werent a Musk fanboy, Tesla cars have literally always been shit quality, this is well known. I remember videos from 2015 from brand new Teslas with massive cracks going down the length of the car.

                But yeah Im gaslighting! Hahaha not the fucking Nazi madman scamming you all, what a joke.

                Additionally, Tesla has and ALWAYS has been extremely anti-consumer and anti-repair, they do not give a fuck about you.

                  Nah what you’re doing is textbook gaslighting. Not to mention, putting words in my mouth. You wanna have a level headed conversation, I’m down, but if you’re gonna continue to let emotion take over, I’m out.
