    I’ll get my $100 deposit back when their $40k electric pickup truck turns out to be $78k, just like Ford did. Not worried.

      100% agree, no way it’ll be $40k. Still crazy that as of 2021 there were 1.5M orders, which means they’ve been holding and most likely making interest on $150,000,000+

      So you gave them an interest free loan for a few years?

        Pretty much, yeah. Assuming 5% interest for the 25 months they’ve had it, Tesla has made a little over $10 off my deposit so far. I hope they enjoy two happy meals with their gains. I’ll be fine.
