Angers some current owners. You can always find people to complain about anything. It's just that bashing Tesla sells newspapers today, and that's where the news industry is going.
I bought a Model 3 seven months ago. At the time it was a good car, at a fair price. Even with perfect hindsight, it was a good decision.
- bwanab 4y agoAnd as Musk pointed out, back in the days when Tesla raised prices, no customer who got the prior low price volunteered to send Tesla a check for the difference.
- Dylan16807 4y agoThat's not a good argument. The general expectation is that customers should know when lowered prices start and end, and be able to take advantage of them. Not that they want the newest price.
- bwanab 4y agoI know it's not. I was being tongue-in-cheek.
- sshine 4y agoI got a Model Y three months ago. Je ne regrette rien.
- limitedsupply 4y agoUsually the fairness that people seek in these situations is just the desire to dump the unfairness on someone else. E.g. the demand to extend the discount to 3-month old purchases ignores the fact that the people who bought a car 3 months and 1 day ago will feel more upset and wronged.
- Dylan16807 4y agoMore wronged? Maybe a couple very unreasonable people. In general I doubt it. Also you can handle that with a staggered discount.
- limitedsupply 4y agoMore meaning they would have felt wronged even before that. In general I agree that it’s unreasonable. Discounts happen, prices change, we can’t always time purchases perfectly.
- saddd 4y agoThere's also no advertising relationships that would dissuade anyone from bashing. This is not to say that Tesla doesn't deserve the bashing (it does).
