Wow, really? They have a store in my local mall that is always packed with people. They have been trying to build hype for the past 2 years in in our area, I thought they would succeed.

Edit:
Website is still up and the Reserve page is still working. but looking at the price of 90K-100K+, I think this would have been a hard sell...
I never went into the store, but I assumed based on brand and style of the vehicle, this would be a 60K car

 

The current gas prices are now trickling down to goods and services. I reserved an Uber for tomorrow night to meet up with a friend, I'll be working late and parking is an issue so it's easier to take an Uber, and the price has gone up from what it normally is which is $12. Interestingly enough, it's a little cheaper to select an Electric vehicle

 

I noticed that this week at the grocery store. A couple of things suddenly spiked, but perhaps the clearest example is tubs of lettuce (Earthbound Farms or Gotham Greens brand). We get these regularly, and the standard "sale/coupon" price is $1.99 pretty much every week, with a very rare 99 cents maybe 5 times a year. Has been that way for YEARS. This week the coupon is $2.49, which I'm expecting to be the "new normal". Since these are physically large compared to their cost/weight, I'm guessing the per-delivery costs have risen to the point that the prior margin was untenable.

 

Not to bring up or discuss gas prices, but diesel is now above $7 at many stations here, and gas has pretty much hit $6 for regular. As we already know or are slowly learning, it's diesel fuel that transports goods. Maybe time for the Tesla Semi?

 

only makes sense. same thing here
