    There is a Tesla dealership near my house that has a lot full of them. A ridiculous number. It seems that Tesla is struggling to get rid of them. Hard to believe that there is not a huge market for electric dumpsters sold by a conspicuous asshole.

      I thought Tesla’s business model was to not have dealerships? Don’t you order Tesla’s online? Or are these second hand?

        I don’t know. I assume it is either a dealership or a lot for the storage of inventory. They have multiple other Tesla models as well. It hasn’t been there long and isn’t labeled in Google maps. The photos in street view are years out of date and show buildings that were torn down.

        I don’t, but know I’ve definitely seen Tesla dealerships. They have full Tesla branding so I always assumed they were related to the company and not third party.
