  I’m just saying it would certainly be more convincing if he did.

    Maybe you can switch cars whenever you want, but for most people, it’s a big expense. And wasteful if you don’t wait until you have to.

    And if you bought a Tesla when you still thought it was a decent company, you’re probably the sort of person who is not a fan of being wasteful.

      It’s a fucking Tesla, not a Hyundai. The absolute cheapest model starts at 40 grand. 75 if it’s a Model S.

      Sorry, but I don’t think “it’s wasteful” is a valid excuse here.

        I don’t understand what the cost has to do with it. Why does that not make switching cars a big expense?

        And why is being wasteful not a valid excuse? I drive very car I have ever owned until I can’t anymore. Because there are way too many junked cars just sitting around and new materials wasted on new cars that are not necessary.

        I drive a Prius. I bought it years ago. If I found out today that the president of Toyota is a racist, why would I sell my Prius just because he’s worth hating?
