If he drops the price to about $8k and includes lifetime fast charging, I'd consider one. Of course, for $8k, there are plenty of much nicer used trucks available on the market, though.

Idunno, they seem like they'd be perpetual rotten fruit magnets. Like you'd have to hose them down a lot

Hosing it down would just accelerate the rusting

Lifetime anyfeature is only of value as long as the company still honors it. Will Tesla still be in business in a decade? Seems doubtful.
