    I think a lot of people are in really deep from 2021/2022 car purchases and will lose their ass if they sell it.

    I also think 99.999 percent of people will have next to no reaction seeing a model 3 or whatever on the road because they are common traffic.

    My guess would be that people putting these badges on their car think it’s funny.

      Also, no one is buying used Teslas for the same reason people aren’t buying new ones.

      I have 2017 tesla I bought before Elon’s crazy wasn’t managed away from the public eye. I took shit for 5 years from every conservative I knew because I drove a libtard, climate-hoax vehicle that I bought because I thought it was less detrimental to the environment. Now it swung the other way and I take shit from the left because Elon is a piec-of-shit nazi.

      I paid more for this car than I have for any other car and I don’t regret the financial decision because I can drive this bitch for another 20 years. But every few years, I have to eat shit from some other political party because we can’t have a mature discussion about the changing political climate.

        I’m glad I’m fiscally and technologically conservative. I bought my first hybrid in 2012 (after the tech had 2-3 generations to mature). I’m considering going with a PHEV for my next car, which will probably be in about 10 years or so.
