Hey guys, my name is Rich and I’m sitting in front of my very expensive Honda Ridgeline. You probably clicked on this blog post because you either own a Tesla or you were thinking about buying one, or maybe you just saw my handsome face and thought, “Damn, yeah, I gotta know more about what this guy has to say.”
I used to make Tesla videos a long time ago, but I ultimately stopped because everyone owns a Tesla now. If you type in “Tesla” on YouTube, you’re going to get Cybertruck speculation videos, 5-year updates, 10-year updates, 100,000 mile updates, and the top 10 hidden features for a car that has literally made 5 million of. There are no more hidden features, guys; they’ve all been discovered.
Back in the day, when you told people you owned a Tesla, it meant something. I owned a Tesla back when people would wave at each other, and it was kind of cool to own one. You had this really small niche group, and now the market is so saturated with Teslas that you can literally rent a Model 3 for $50 a day in some places.
Rich dads used to buy their daughters a white C-Class Mercedes for their birthday; it was the quintessential basic entry luxury car to show off to your friends. Now dads are buying their daughters white Model 3s because they’re trendy and hip and they’re all over TikTok. EV adoption is what people really want; the prices of EVs have gone down significantly, and you can literally get a used Model S for about $15,000 to $20,000, depending on mileage.
By the way, this is a public service announcement: anyone who knows a Tesla Plaid owner, please call them, check on them, make sure they showed up to work today. A year ago, a new Tesla Plaid was $160,000, and now a new Plaid is literally $89,000. Most Plaid owners were about $50,000 to $70,000 underwater with their cars. Check on them, give them a hug, tell them it’s okay, and remind them how fast their car is 0 to 60.
Now, if you’ve been living under a rock, I need to share some important information with you about a marketplace that has virtually everything you’ll ever need and at least 10,000 things you didn’t even know you needed. TEEU has a better program than just about any other place because, unlike most marketplaces, shipping is actually free, and there are free returns for up to 90 days. Plus, they offer price protection if the price drops within 30 days of your purchase.
In conclusion, owning a Tesla can be a great experience, but it’s important to be aware of potential battery issues that may arise. If you find yourself in a situation where you need to replace the battery, carefully consider your options and weigh the costs involved. Whether you choose to repair, sell, or drive your Tesla, make sure to make an informed decision that aligns with your financial situation and needs. Thank you for reading, and I’ll see you next week with more insights and updates.
