    Where’s the assumption? If you buy a luxury brand, you’re not struggling. Buying one of the first EVs is not a “I’m broke” decision the same as buying luxury shoes. Your position is that in the last five or so years someone could have zero ability to trade in their brand new Tesla? Use common sense, I implore you. Obviously there are outliers but no, most people had the chance.

    You argue like a Republican, with bad faith “some people might not fit your generalization!” nonsense. Support of fascism should be met with escalating resistance. We’ve had years to discuss it, yet here we are.

      People can lose their jobs after buying something. People can stretch beyond their means to buy something.

      Tesla is not a luxury brand by any stretch of the imagination.

      brand new Tesla?

      If it’s used it’s by definition not brand new lol. 5 years has not been recent enough to realize musk is a Nazi. Closer to around 2 more realistic. Maybe 1 even.

      That’s not a Republican argument.

      Trading a car in is a big decision if you aren’t rich, especially if it’s your first newer car.
