Musk’s repeated outbursts against advertisers have dried up the main source of revenue for the loss-making company formerly known as Twitter. A recent decision to sue them for heeding his own advice to not buy ads on the platform hasn’t helped. At some point, he will have to provide a fresh infusion of cash to salvage his $44 billion takeover.
Judging by the used car online sites, it has about as much value left as any other car with similar age and kilometers. If I had to buy a car right now, I’d probably take a hard look at the alternatives. But they’d have to actually be better, I usually make car purchase decisions based on the qualities of the car.
Although Musk is certainly trying to make such principles difficult.
Good thing my car is new enough that I don’t have to make this choice for several years. Perhaps the competition will have caught up by the time I need to get a new one.
Competition has exceeded tesla. I recently got BYD Seal, and it is better than the equivalent priced tesla
I’m glad it worked for you. Things will have to change a bit globally that I would consider a BYD.
Oh right, perhaps already I don’t make purchase decisions purely based on the qualities of the car :)
I figures it was a simple calculus, especially since BYD is the OEM that supplies parts for many of the other brands, especially the batteries.
I’d rather benefit from that status than support a egotist like Musk. Besides anywhere outside America the Teslas are made in China, just like the BYDs 😆
Have you looked at what your money would support, buying from BYD? If part of your decision is who profits, both choices are horrible and you could argue Musk I less horrible. This is one of the reasons I try to keep that out of my decisions.
Berlin disagrees.
The price of used Teslas has nothing to do with the value of Tesla stock.
Intel’s stock dropped from $50 to $20 over the last year, but their processors still cost the same.
Yeah. I’m more worried about repairability etc.
