The comparison to a car salesman is apt. If I were to trade in my 6 week old Model 3 to Tesla right now, they'd offer around 20 grand less than I paid them for

The comparison to a car salesman is apt. If I were to trade in my 6 week old Model 3 to Tesla right now, they'd offer around 20 grand less than I paid them for it.
Though to be fair, that's probably true of any random car dealer, because of what Tesla did to the used market a couple weeks ago.
- zamfi 4y agoThis is a very 2021 take. Outside the limited-time pandemic-related supply chain issues, every new car drops in value the second you drive it off the lot. Nothing to do with Tesla. If anything, the last 2 years of sky-high used car prices have more to do with production capacity than any intrinsic value in used cars. (The value in the last 2 years coming from immediacy, not intrinsic value.)
