I don't see it as any more conspicuous than a Model 3 at $35k. You're getting a truck and more functionality, so $5k seems like extreme value, not conspicuous. It's also an EV, so the equivalent ICE car should cost around ~$30k, which is a nicely trimmed sedan, but certainly not a luxury truck.

Woah, I was never excluding the other models from my assessment.

Do you consider the Model 3 to be conspicuous consumption?
