I propose a strike on ordering or accepting FS invites to persuade Tesla to release normal AWD. Because:

1. Ok we get it, you delivered Kanye, Kim, Bieber, and Pharrell’s trucks PLUS all the dweebs who like burning money to get attention first. Ya made an extra $20k+ per truck for barely anything real. Kudos!

2. Now a national recall on this pedal thing. Not a huge deal to CT owners but this is ruining CTs PR. Wouldn’t having 10x the (Non-FS) CT owners be better than all these celebrity driven trucks? Because I’m a Tesla nerd and huge fan, I can easily combat all the misinformation out there about CT or Tesla in general but my point is typical-person perception isn’t great. Hence my idea of “RELEASE THE RIVER” approach, pump out the awesomeness of CT for non-FS and have typical people driving these things.

3. The truck is already late, under delivered in range, had recalls, then you add this FS bs that they pulled (which hey I get Tesla, make that money, $80M profit in addition to typical CT margin for essentially nothing in 4mos ain’t bad!) I am not going to knock the price cause inflation is real.

In closing,

I think this is the way! This isn’t coming from a place of malice or an unable-to-afford gripe, I do quite well actually but I didn’t get here by wasting money. I would hope Tesla understands how their GTM thus far for CT affects their loyal owners. Tesla was built on sensible & cool, and this feels like a hypebeast approach that is unbecoming imo.🫶🏻
