Tesla has the same problems as the other electric vehicles that are not selling according to company projections. Range, price and length of time and number of places to charge up the batteries. I saw a Model S on the road a few days ago. It is a nice looking vehicle but not for the average joe’s pocketbook. It looks like sales to the FEELING GOOD SAVE THE EARTH CROWD have started to peter out and they are experiencing the struggles of trying to sell to the average joe.

I think the harassment of supposed save the earth people, who have yet to walk the walk, must now begin. Hoist them on their own eco-pitards.

Imagine the caterwauling when the purchasers of the VOLT, Leaf, Prius, Honda EV, etc. go to trade them in when the batteries are going bad and out of warranty.

They will probably have to pay the dealers to take them.

That will be the true test of their "Greenie" credentials.
