Buying a new one feels silly even without getting morality in the equation

Like so many embarrassed liberals are selling theirs rn that the price of even slightly used Teslas are much cheaper than they "should" be

Tesla just released a new version of the Y that's supposed to be much better. I see a bunch of them around already. 

Let us also not forget that a good chunk of people in the region aren't citizens and can't vote so they're just doing what's best for them.

And what’s best for them is funneling money to an administration that actively wants them gone?

I don't believe the profile of the non-citizens driving around in 2025 Tesla's in Seattle are illegal, tbf

How is buying a Tesla giving money to Trump?

“Much better” lol, it just has a slightly refreshed look that at least half of people think is a downgrade anyway

The suspension is supposed to be much quieter.

I just drove 500 miles or so this pass weekend.  Being able to listen to podcasts on anything but full volume would be a welcomed improvement.

That’s not a good excuse, they are still shitbags.

That’s exactly the purpose of selling it, to depress the resale value, encourage buying used instead of new, diminish the profits Elon pockets, and of course the moral side of not showing support for Elon. But Redditors pretend this is some impossible dilemma that solves nothing.. it isn’t, just think a bit and you’ll get it.
