What came out in the news yesterday was no surprise at all because he laid all this out a good 18 months ago.
That is true
Why would I buy a Tesla if Tesla isn't a car company, and they hope to be out of the retail car business? I'd prefer to buy from a company that focuses on what I'm buying... A car.
I'd say people who refuse to be pressured into loving EVs, even when being called names... Are in fact thinking for themselves. When they sit down and pencil out the coat for themselves, they are thinking for themselves. When they look at how they drive and how that may affect what car they buy, they are thinking for themselves. The lie is that if you don't worship EVs, you aren't thinking for yourself. So, if we ALL AGREE, that means we are thinking for ourselves?
. That seems counter intuitive.
Variety is the spice of life.
Buy what YOU like.
Like some others on here I will have a major problem with someone telling me my old gas and diesel vehicles should be parked or scrapped in the future.
I see some risk of high depreciation in the purchase of the Y when it goes out of warranty.
Or it could go the other way and the majority of cars run virtually problem free for 300000 + miles and these become like a Jeep Wrangler where they just hold their value.
The oldest versions of the Y are only about 4 years old now.
Plus there are a few different battery chemistry, internal structure body designs, assembly and different processors and sensors plus Hardware variations.
What was it Shooterdon said if you want bleeding edge ....? you better be ready to bleed.
ps.
Tesla Motors in 2017 the decision was made to drop the 'Motors' because the company is into much more than just vehicles.
They still keep the motor reference in the registered trademark T which denotes a rotor pole and the line above is representative of a piece of the stator of Nikola Tesla's original design
