If you're rebadging your Tesla because you feel some second hand shame for owning one now that it's clear to anyone with eyes that Elon Musk is a literal Nazi, just sell it and buy a different EV.

Sell it to who? Is this a game of hot potato?

Yeah, my friend is really glad he sold his Tesla last summer.

I think a lot of people are in really deep from 2021/2022 car purchases and will lose their ass if they sell it.

I also think 99.999 percent of people will have next to no reaction seeing a model 3 or whatever on the road because they are common traffic.

My guess would be that people putting these badges on their car think it's funny.

I’m glad I’m fiscally and technologically conservative. I bought my first hybrid in 2012 (after the tech had 2-3 generations to mature). I’m considering going with a PHEV for my next car, which will probably be in about 10 years or so.
