    I work in a factory wide role. Those pictures are a mix of production associates, engineers, and other support service personnel. I am right behind the person @T-Rex266 circled. Black vest and blue/green shirt.

    Although I will say prices are cheaper than what I paid at launch and it’s eligible for the tax credit again lol. Tempting.

    Reading of inventory piling up
    Across the board and discounts going up everywhere. A lady who was driving a year 15 year old Lexus RX last year at daycare showed up in a brand new Tesla when we started back for the summer. Even got Teslas showing up in the worst hoods up in Philly.

    I remain convinced Ford separated out EV results to create a papertrail blaming the govt to make the case for a bailout on favorable conditions if there is another round of bankruptcies. "You made us do this and it was never profitable."

    Sad part is those piled up lightning with the window sticker of the old price aren’t EV credit eligible no matter the discount.
    Online says you can order and have one by October

    and why buy a EV without the Tesla connection?

    The free mkt created Tesla...Gov subsidies created all the rest.

    It’s the biggest reason I wouldn’t. Especially with how inefficient it is. I flash back to when I owned mine. Pain in the ass finding charging
