Down what? Sales volume? Stock price? Sale Price?


Tesla stock is up 73% this year.

This.


+2 Also, just saw in the politics forum that they are one of the most deadly vehicles.


Then why did my insurance premium go down when I bought a Tesla? Oh, right, because it's a really safe car.

For a time, Tesla made the most sense. It does not anymore. Highly encourage people look into other EVs. There are quite a few options out there that are both cheaper and frankly better made.

Except in the case of EVs. The tech is changing so rapidly that you may well want to replace/upgrade sooner than you otherwise might want to. A lease also gives you an easy out if it turns out that the tech doesn't suit you. And, if you do like the vehicle and the residual value justifies it, you retain the option to buy the vehicle at the end of the lease term. Sometimes leasing incentives also bring the total cost of ownership well below that associated with an outright purchase, but that needs to be considered case-by-case.


^^This right here.

I’d also strongly suggest that OP look into other EVs, like Lucid, Ioniq, or Polestar.

This is what I always believed but the one year lease and residual buyout cost for our EV was lower than the cash price including dealer incentives, price matching etc. The loophole for the federal tax credit is a big part of this.

tesla are the best we are set on it, the other ones are at least 5-8 years behind


Not sure where you're getting that misinformation, but have fun with your Cybertruck. Hopefully somebody keys it soon.


Good luck trying to key a cyber truck, but Tesla is the only brand that will be around in the next few years, especially after the next administration pulls the plug on the silly EV subsidies because Tesla has made major strides in not needing any federal help by bringing down costs.


Doubtful. But enjoy your hitler mobile.



It’s sad pathetic how much you hate our environment, you climate-change denying loser!


Musk is a climate denier.
