Yes one that wouldn’t go as far or charge as fast as the Tesla he owns now.

This is one of the things that infuriates me about Tesla. The idea of making a capable product, then artificially and deliberately limiting it with your hand out for more money, seems somehow immoral to me. I wouldn't buy a BMW with their infamous seat warmer subscription, either. I think such corporations deserve a few "moneylenders in the temple" slaps. I hate crippleware software, too. I'm a FLOSS kinda guy. In fact for decades I've wished for an "open source" EV, and/or one offered by a nonprofit company. > Bottom line, I'd be ok to say yes now to upgrading (at about $22k): > - if I could get a refreshed straight answer from Tesla as to how much > it costs (surprisingly difficult) and what I get for the money > - if there was not an occasional concern about trustworthiness of the > automaker (but I suppose this goes for others too) > - if the CEO was not taking so many morally questionable positions. Wow! You must really like your Tesla. For $22,000 you can almost buy an entire other-make brand new EV with zero miles on it. Heck, if you wre in the EU you could get one for less than $22k, but it wouldn't have the range you're used to. And I'd just about bet that $22k would get you a pretty nice lightly-used much newer EV of a different brand.
