As owners of two 2020 Tesla…
As owners of two 2020 Tesla model 3’s, I’m not glad the company is doing poorly because of Elon’s activities. There must be a lot of people losing their jobs as sales of new Teslas diminish. That in itself is sad, though I hope they can easily retrain to work on other EV’s.
If you look at the bigger picture, it was very quiet at the service center the last time I was there. That will mean fewer technicians to work on cars, so fewer appointments available.
Also, because these cars are computers on wheels, we know what it’s like when a company stops supporting their software. We’ve been enjoying frequent software updates, that keep making our cars better. I find that is one of the great values of the Tesla brand. Really, all Tesla owners need the company to stay in business and do well.
I love my car and had certainly planned on driving it for a very long time. I don’t want it to become an obsolete brick.
I hope everyone who wants to buy one gets a good deal. But then I can only hope Mr. Musk finds something else to do other than politics, or he sells the company to someone good. Meanwhile, our cars are armed with bumper stickers that we hope will ward off vandalism. We love the cars and but don’t drive them to show support for what the CEO is doing. Unfortunately it’s hard for many people to separate the two.😊
