Sell it for parts.
Make a youtube video out of destroying it in a remote area.
Disaasemble it and turn it into art.

Mark it zero dude, he was over the line.

Its a bad investment, if your values matter more to you than your net worth, you can find a way, you can absorb some monetary loss if you actually care.

Here's a bunch of alternatives to a Model Y.
Used Ioniq 5s from 2023 or 2022 seem to be going for about the same price as used Tesla Ys from 2022 or 2023 on carfax.
Yeah, you're not gonna be able to sell a 2 or 3 or 4 year old used EV for a comparable brand new EV... cars depriciate, EVs often more so as the battery pack degrades with wear and can't really be 'repaired', only replaced, which is quite costly in terms of both parts and labor.
Yeah it’s a weird take because if you can afford a Tesla you can afford the few grand it sank in value to get a different vehicle. It’s the usual wallet > morals type of deal where a guy who owns a company and can afford a Tesla is just worried about few hundred bucks
I edited in some actual comprable vehicles and looked up some prices while you made your reply.
... Yeah, I have no idea how you can afford a Tesla Y but not find a comparable alternative.
Its almost like an excuse to justify keeping it.
Yeah I’d be okay if someone who has a Tesla was just honest and said that changing cars is a hassle and seems like too much effort given the backlash is new and the car is 4 years old. That’s at least a logically consistent argument and since they own the car already it doesn’t carry the same moral implications as buying a Tesla post Nazi Elon. Pretending it’s a financial hardship or that nobody would buy it is just lying to yourself I think. Plenty of politically clueless people still buy Teslas in the US.
