Makes me think of Rich Rebuilds on YouTube and his saga of trying to buy a Tesla online. Total nightmare.

A used Tesla. While it was indeed a nightmare that I hope Tesla figures out a way to solve, it's not quite the same as if he bought a new vehicle.

How is buying used vs new any different when Tesla has no third party dealers? I buy a used MacBook Pro from Apple is the same as a new one direct from Apple. It’s not like buying from eBay. He bought the car directly from Tesla using the same exact process as buying new.

The entire logistics process is different, the car has to go through repair, etc.

He purchased it from Tesla. Why should the experience be any different than buying a new car?

Ask anyone who ordered a new Tesla online, or visit https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/forums/ if you don't know anyone who did. There are plenty of detailed stories, almost of of them are extremely positive even though people with bad experiences usually complain more and louder than others.
