People that live in a car centric country where you cant go anywhere without one and can’t afford a new car just yet. I have a relatively new car and relatively doing well financially, but if I had to buy a new car immediately I’d probably be fucked for the rest of the year. And the fact that the resale market for Tesla is probably not that great right now you won’t get much money back by selling it. I am seeing a lot of Teslas with the logo taken off, though.
