Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Sucks for owners that bought before he was clearly a shitty person. Insurance was already higher for them because there was a value premium. Now used ones sell for less than competing models but they still have to pay higher insurance.
A lot of unlucky car service people in my area invested in the sedans.
I REALLY want to talk to one of those right wing tools who used to go around tampering with recharge stations and rolling coal on Teslas. See what they've been up to lately
If you have a 401k you are invested in Tesla.
If that bothers you, you can talk to your broker about how to diversify your investments to mitigate losses stemming from their now toxic brand.
I know absolute dick nothing about investing, and this is not advice. I just know I hate the dude enough to talk to a stranger on the phone.
eDolf Musk is learning a valuable lesson: As a billionaire, you can basically do what you want. Except if you are in a very competitive business and it makes people hate your guts.
good…

Use of an actual ellipses rather than three distinct dots. You're just the sort of pedantic that I am and I salute you.

A bit more info with some sourced cases.
Many such cases
Aren’t they insured by Tesla because no other insurance company will touch them?
Tesla has its own insurance but it's not required or even available in all states. I've switched between several insurance companies.
Yeah it'll do that
Kids, this is your brains on drugs
Just saying that in the unfortunate event of a write-off accident the insurance providers for Tesla owners might replace their car with a non-Tesla if they request it.
If they total the car, they cut you a check. They don't care what you do with the check.
Hell yeah.
More! MOOOORE!!!
