So this is endemic? I noticed a lot of Uber drivers drove Model 3s when I flew into Miami a few months back and saw the same thing in Berkeley a few weeks ago. Are the Model 3 owners having trouble paying that high car note?
The Model 3 is ridiculously expensive. Base price RWD $47k. You can get into a Prius for $25k. At 58mpg there will never be a breakeven for the Model 3. Economics will be different with this upcoming $7,500 tax credit, but that obviously doesn't apply to any current owners.
