I feel like unless you bought an Incel Camino or a brand new Tesla like in the last year, you really shouldn't be on the receiving end of quite so much hate, TBH. They were the car that finally got EVs off the ground as an acceptable alternative, so it's a shame early adopters are possibly being lumped in with MAGA truck owners.
I'm kinda conflicted about this. On the one hand, selling a car takes time and energy, and might not necessarily be feasible to do in just a few months, especially since the market for em is going to SUCK. On the other hand, if you continue to drive a car from a company owned by a literal Nazi once you know, then... well I don't feel too bad for you.
Sell their cars to who BEN? Aquaman?
In the end someone will own the car and be f'ed because of it. The seller will take a huge financial loss because other people think it helps to force people to make bad financial decisions while Tesla already has the money.
Here's the thing, if you own a Tesla, it's already been depreciated through elon's actions. You just haven't realised (in the accounting sense) the loss yet.
The fact is that they are being targeted, so selling now is a method of hedging your losses. The other option is to gamble that you won't be targeted.
The car still has utility to the person who owns it. It's "real" value is irrelevant to most people so long as it does what it was supposed to do when purchased.
Also adding the fact that people almost never purchased a uSED tesla for a reason, because the QC issue crops up, and new drivers are turned away from it. the only time i notice someone getting a used one(is a youtuber trying to mooch off of another ytubers fame., its actually quite sad)
