And this is an upper middle class suburb of one of the nation’s most important cities....a suburb surrounded by very *wealthy* towns.
High demand? Not that *I’ve* noticed.

Who would want to buy one of these cars when the company will likely go bankrupt and you won’t be able to find parts 3-5 years out? Looks like a DeLorean like bankruptcy to me.
Yup, and I bet one side is that Tesla doesn’t really inform buyers that there are virtual zero replacement parts or repair venues for their cars. And as more and more of these gross polluters hit the streets the odds of their cars being damaged or breaking down increase.
