I don’t think everyone buying a brand new vehicle would be a net win for the environment, especially with the kind of vehicles sold here(giant SUVs are still massive even when their EVs, take much more resources to both build and charge than small cars). I would also love to the math that shows something like my vehicle, a Fiat 500, contributes more pollution than a container ship.
A year ago I bought my wife a Mazda CX-5 diesel and paid 10K for it. Now I found out that it has an engine defect that will be extremely expensive to repair, so the car is a write-off, at best I can get 2K back.

Especially if you can get warranty from the repair shop for a few years, it’s still likely cheaper than vehicle payments on a 3-5 year old used vehicle that may have issues still. I’m not saying fix it, or not to, but look at it as costs of transportation and having to buy a new vehicle still.

This is a misunderstanding of how google works I think.
If anyone ever wanted a simple demonstration of how insane tesla fans are, the comment section on that article is perfect. I don’t think there is a single sane or reasonable comment out of 100s.
