I wonder if someone breaking it and collecting insurance money from it would end up being the preferred option over selling it.
Three fiddy and I will use for target practice.
Who is buying all these Teslas that Tesla owners are all selling because nobody wants a Tesla?

What if everyone would transfer their PayPal credit to a regular bank account on the same day? Would that bring Paypal value down?
hard to estimate, but probably not. I think what makes such companies go down is when the investors fear their money might be lost. that is, when the company is not worth much compared to their invested money.
So only, when the user count is dropping, that would be the case for paypal.
What happens if Tesla falls? America's charging station infrastructure is owned by Tesla. Looks like the whole EV push has been a complete failure. What about the environment and global warming, seems like people really don't care about any of that in comparison to settling political grievances. It is what it is.
@[email protected] Are you a Tesla owner who only charges at Telsa charging stations? Tesla doesn't even own the majority of charging stations in the US. They only recently started allowing non-Teslas to use their chargers. Where did you think all the other EVs were charging?
Tesla will be taken over by PE who will sell off the charging network. Once rebranded as ChargePoint or Electrify America, they will will no lobger be targeted by vandalism and arson. The cost of removing the toxic Tesla brand isn't trivial, but the locations and infrastructure have value. They won't just be turned off when there is profit to made.

There is no point in worrying about the environment without first fighting against facism.

what you expect from temupanzers
If I were to drive one, I would never let such circumstances push me to sell.
I hope they lose money because they bought a 1939 Volkswagan with an electric motor on it, and then claimed
Well how was I meant to know the man who lives on the internet 24/7 and can't shut up about his opinions of women, non-whites, fascism, lgbt, and lies like he needs his pants to be warm for the winter, was somehow a bad guy? I bought a cool sticker, so I'm absolved of giving him any money :^)
These people bought them because they thought he was a real life Tony Stark, especially the early models and Cybertrucks. I consider everyone driving in one a useful idiot for Trump and Musk.
