Uh-huh, like the base price of the Model 3 is $35k, and nobody has taken delivery on one of those yet?

I'm sure a few people will finally get the opportunity to buy a $40k Y, but as I've repeated, it will be at least a year after the initial launch. Besides all that, $40k is a heck of a lot of money for a vehicle. I've bought 4-unit property for $62k.

My guess is we are still at least a decade out from EVs being sold in quantities large enough to severely impact ICE sales.
