Customers on the waiting list for the Tesla Model 3 sedan may have been bumped up in line a bit.
Electric car blog Electrek reports that at least a few people have said they are cancelling their orders for the yet-to-be-released car over Elon Musk's collaboration with President Donald Trump's administration....

So, fewer potheads in self-driving cars? Hmm, that might not be a good thing.
So "a few" people reporting on a blog that they are cancelling their orders is now national news? I hope CNBC doesn't read the blogs about Comcast. They'd be reporting that its about to go into bankruptcy based on the blog comments about people hating the service and cancelling their service.
These jokers can’t afford Tesla. They can cancel them in their day dream
Tesla fans are not concerned about Climate Change anymore. How Quaint.
They know it’s a cow. They were just looking for an excuse.
or they can head back to their overrated golf carts called the Prius. My libtard work neighbor has a Tesla and I really doubt he’ll trash his Tesla because he loves it.
The battery is the left’s solution to gasoline.
If California secedes, do you think it will go to war with battery operated tanks and planes? I hope so.
Hydrogen on the other hand is a different story.
It’s like the Starbucks boycott but a whole lot more expensive per unit.
“People say...”
“If California secedes, do you think it will go to war with battery operated tanks and planes? I hope so.”
You want to go to war over a state leaving the Union?
“They know it’s a cow.”
Care to explain?
$1000 deposits up in smoke.
An aspiring major industry executive works with POTUS to benefit his business. The problem is...what?
Funny thing or not. Anyone can buy a Tesla. Third party financing charging people with little credit charging them up the wazoo.
I know this first hand, someone I worked with got a Model S. He had a good job, but zero credit. He was 24 or 25 years old. But, he had to take a second job driving for Uber to help pay for it.
I spent an hour with a Tesla salesman at the South Lake Union store. It was an awesome hour and I really wanted one. Just the free electricity alone would make it a no brainer to me. However, I live in KY and I would have to pay for the electricity. And the range is terrible when it’s cold out. And it turns out that those motors don’t hold up all that well and, well, I’ll let google explain it:

Kinda reminds me of the AMC Pacer. Once the “newness” wore off, sales fell off a cliff. Though pacers may have been more reliable than Teslas are.
Eating their own again are they?
BTW, the difference in btu’s of energy in a cubic foot of gasoline and a cubic foot of battery is staggering. That is why range is a problem. That is why there is no such thing as a battery operated hair dryer. :-)
