1) $TSLAQ: Stop the Presses! Must read/see thread:

Rich Rebuilds Finds His Car And It Is Still Not Ready, Posts New Video In Which We Learn:

1. Rich, has now been in contact with 8 different Tesla reps.

2. Mannheim Auction NY had his car (continued)

3. Rich asked for more photos (wait until you see these puppies in the video)

4. Mannheim charges Tesla $15 for the photos and Tesla sends them to Rich

5. Rich wanted to see the car in person. Mannheim says NO. Sat image shows Mannheim location in New York. (Attention: SGF!)

6. Rich's followers, some of who turned into haters, spread his first two videos so much that Tesla sends a higher up rep to the East Coast to investigate Rich's missing car.

7. Suddenly nearby delivery center can give Rich a Model X loaner, which he reneges on.

8. One of the reasons Rich gives for reneging on loaner was he was worried that the loaner "was already sold" and that he'd be driving a car somebody else really needed.

9) Tesla rep says his car's front two tires are bald and they need to fix some "other" things.

10. Rich asks for what the so-called Tesla 70 point Inspection program looks for. Tesla would not share the list with him.

11. As a test, Rich calls BMW and asks for a list of what they check on a CPO in their 120 Point Inspection: BMW emails him the list.

12. BMW list shows everything from last service date to wiper blade condition, glove box, weather seal, paint, etc., with a 20 minute minimum road test checking for squeaks, rattles, wind noise etc.

So, BMW's list is beyond a thorough check for their CPOs and Rich sez,

13. "Now at this point, I have a feeling a NEW Tesla wouldn't pass BMW's 120 used car inspection."
- Rich Rebuilds from new video "Why the Used Tesla System is Broken!"

14. And you think, "Can this get worse?" Hint: It gets worse.

15. Rep tells him his car needs body work.

16. Rich searches for the nearest repair shop close to his delivery center. It is 90 minutes away. Rich shows up unannounced, and finally a rep walks him out to a yard and sez, "You must be very important, because I've been getting multiple phone call about this car for days.

17. Wait until you see this car. (start 11:30 mark)Rich says, "Now I felt special for about 3 seconds and then I was led to the car and this is my quick video of it."

Holy, fuckamoly!

18. Yellow writing on everything needing to be fixed which photos from Mannheim never showed.

19. Now the BIG REVEAL:

20. Rich wonders how in fuck a major car company can sell something like this as Certified Pre-Owned with multiple checks?

21. Rich starts digging around and finds out he's "late to the party" (and so are many of us in the $TSLAQ community.)

22. "TESLA DOESN'T SELL CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED CARS ANY MORE, THEY SELL USED CARS!"

23. Say, "Wot???"

24. Rich explains, "How did I find this out? A late night tweet from Elon Musk over a year ago. I had to google tweets from Elon Musk to find out this major change from Tesla."

25. Rich continues, "Apparently, it caused quite the frenzy,because Tesla employees were busy trying to press CTRL/APP to change the word "CPO" on their website to "USED."

26. Rich asks, "How do you just stop a CPO program? How you just stop selling quality used cars?"

(continued 26.) which are a representation of your brand?:

27. "Even Kia has a Certified Pre-Owned Program for a fraction of the price, AND they have better photos!"

28. Rich then shows another guy's $70,000 Tesla "CPO" car and what was inside. (No spoiler. See for yourself!)

29. Rich then tells how his friend was driven to a dirt lot, handed the key fob, and left on his own with his new $118,000 Tesla.

30. Rich then says Tesla should bring used car sales "back in house."

31. Rich said he heard from the "higher up" while he was finishing this vid:

32. The higher up emailed Rich saying his car "could" be ready as soon as this week.

Rich sarcastically says, "I am personally excited by this, but then again, "as soon as this week" could mean as late as June!"

33: Just watch the damning video, Folks, and realize how bad it has gotten, how bad it can get. Rich has waited two months for his USED Tesla, nee CPO, and in this video, you have all the proof of a car company which is the worst run on Planet Earth.
