How anybody could buy a Tesla at this point is completely beyond me to be honest

Ya, so elon doesn't care... He's literally dismantling the united states right now and enjoying every minute of it. Also, anecdotally it still feels like those things (teslas) are everywhere around here. There's even a few cybertrucks driving around. Saw one on my way home, and another person with one works at a company just down the road.

Our very own Lex Luthor.

Coincidentally, I drive a car that sounds like it was named after Lex Luthor.

"Things aren't looking so golden for Tesla in the Golden State. Tesla's dominance in the electric-vehicle market continues to falter as the brand reported its fifth consecutive quarterly registration decline," California New Car Dealers Association said in a report published on Jan. 31.

Emphasis mine, but the bad news is that the Model Y and 3 are still the highest-selling cars in the state - so there’s still plenty more room for those figures to fall:

Still, the Model Y crossover continued to be the top-selling vehicle in the state, with about 129,000 units sold last year. The Model 3 sedan was a distant second, with around 53,000 cars delivered.
