Closing the stores made me, potential customer, worry about whether Tesla the company will be around, spare parts will be available, software I am entrusting my families life to will be debugged promptly. Can parts of their business cease to exist on a whim from The Mad King? Reversing their decision hasn't made me worry less.

More worrying than that is the crashing Tesla resale prices: https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/price-trends/Tesla-Model-S-d2039 https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/price-trends/Tesla-Model-S-d20... Normal cars don't decline 20% in resale value in the last year.

  I wonder how much of that is related to Model 3 availability. To me, a high-end 3 seems like a better buy than a lower-end S. If you expand your date selection farther back, it looks like the S price decline really started around July 2018.

  Not unusually bad depreciation for a luxury car. Better than many.
