    They really should disaggregate recalls fixed with OTA updates from recalls that need a physical intervention. Obviously Teslas almost always need an OTA update

      True, but Tesla having people beta test for them while in extremely fast and heavy metal boxes seems irresponsible.

          No, they are cheap because Tesla built extremely efficient factories, assembly lines and car designs from the start. Try to look up the differences between Tesla and other manufacturers like VW, Toyota etc…

            I was joking, they aren’t cheap, they’re average priced for a subpar car. The Ford Maverick is $25,000, a whopping $10,000 cheaper than the Model 3.

            Edit: I’m stupid, I thought the Ford Maverick was the EV model. It’s in fact the Ford Lightning, which starts at $50,000. Teslas are in fact cheap.

              Why are you comparing a compact Tesla to Ford trucks? Teslas are definitely expensive. And the model 3 isn’t $35k, it’s more like $50k.

            efficiency is when you have to recall your cars the most out of anybody because it’s more efficient to get them out the door and in to the suckers customers hands and then fix them later
