Alternatively, you don't have a listing on Tesla's site saying that a car costs $40k, and then when you call them up to buy it, they say they are adding a "$25k

Alternatively, you don't have a listing on Tesla's site saying that a car costs $40k, and then when you call them up to buy it, they say they are adding a "$25k dealer premium", so you can have it for $65k. That's what actually happened to me when I was about to buy a rav4 prime a year ago. So instead I just went and bought a model Y for $50k, and am extremely happy with it. And also blacklisted Larry H Miller from ever getting my business again. But I guess I haven't had to deal with repairs, so maybe things will get worse.
