At this point i no longer care if they lower the price until they're free. They will have to sell them as scrap at a loss. I will never, ever, ever buy a Tesla.

Right into the ocean

I wouldn't even get in that unopenable-emergency-doors death trap.

At one point I was considering buying a Tesla. Then I didn't like Musk, but felt I could justify buying a used Tesla, as it wasn't giving him any money.

Then Nazi salute and DOGE and lol, nope. I won't even uber a Tesla.

He'll still get money for the subscribable services scam and dealer service.

Oh, don’t worry. He can just buy them from himself using taxpayer money via subsidies from his other company like he did last year. If you’re an American taxpayer, you’ve already bought one.

I'd take a free Tesla. Pull the batteries and drive modules. Scrap the shell, sell the drive modules, use the batteries for home storage.
