yeah, for a while they were the only option if you wanted an EV with >80 mile range, but there are other options today
Tesla’s no-dealerships, no-hassle purchasing experience is more like ordering something from Amazon instead of the usual, infuriating slog of trying to purchase a new car. Its strictly superior to the legacy car companies, and so are Tesla’s batteries.

You can buy a car from Carvana for the listed price and they’ll deliver it to your home now. One less reason to buy Tesla.
