Oh you’re totally correct here, that is definitely a pay cut against inflation - fortunately not the case for me, just expressing this opinion, thanks for your kindness there. I am indeed beating the dead horse here, but I guess what I’m trying to say is, I really wish there was an even cheaper model, because $35k/$40k seems to be right at that point of pushing the budget of a budget car into luxury territory, and not truly giving consumers what they want, a base model. Sorry if I’m not being clear, a bit hard to explain. But that’s not Tesla’s problem, just an issue of the economics of the industry at this point. Hoping we see that significant drop in cost as battery tech evolves.
