    And that’s really the only reason I have one - it was the only long range electric car available when I bought it. Now I would choose any of the many other options first.

      I’d be curious about why you haven’t taken the moral stance and sold it.

      What’s going on in America needs people to take actual steps. Votes aren’t enough anymore.

        I don’t pay Tesla for the vehicle (I don’t even supercharge), so it doesn’t actually affect their bottom line if I sell it. Buying a new car does affect my bottom line though.

        Boycotts are only effective when they change purchasing behaviors, and this purchase is long done. I do encourage everyone who asks if I like my car to look into specific alternatives instead however.
