Y'all might as well hang on to your Tesla stock. In a few more months it will be totally worthless just like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, VA benefits, our constitution, our laws, and a bunch of other stuff of value.

i would just let them rot in the dealership. putting them on fire just lets Tesla collect insurance in the inventory. Now the Insurance companies know that the trucks are held together with glue, they have become uninsurable to owners. that might make any other sales of the vehicle impossible.

Only tesla insurance is all you can get for teslas because….
