Absolutely 100% what I was thinking hahahah. Also that article also states something about the resale value going down..... ummmm .... going down? How is that possible? I would assume the current resale value is $0. Who on earth would buy a used ev from a company that doesn't even exist anymore?

Then with enough leaving the market, they will become a rare collectable, to bring the price back up in a few (or many) years.

Absolutely, the best thing to do is preserve it as best as possible and put in storage. In many years it will be worth something as a rare kit rebuild

Somehow, I just picture the old devices I've forgotten in a drawer somewhere for a decade - with alkaline batteries inside.

So it sounds like you're telling me that the telemetry may still try to phone home, but there's no longer anyone there to answer? The automated firmware update system which lets the manufacturer brick and/or fuck with your vehicle after you've bought it no longer does anything?

This sounds very interesting.
