Comment on Elon Musk: your new Tesla will drive from the factory floor, to your house 'this year'

  You can absolutely get a new car delivered to your house

  I’ve never heard of this.

  the topic of discussion in this thread is having the car drive itself to your house, not to the dealership for you to pick it up.

  Yes, that was my point. 🤷‍♂️

    I’ve never heard of this.

    Now you have. You can even get a used car delivered to your house and have your old car taken away at the same time if you are trading it in.

    Yes, that was my point

    Ok? So what was the point of your first comment? Anyway, I think this conversation is going around in circles, and it seems like it was just because you weren’t aware a car can be delivered straight to your house, instead of having it drive by itself and rack up miles and wear and tear before you even get to ride in it.

      I really don’t know how to be more clear about this without just repeating things I’ve already said.

      you weren’t aware a car can be delivered straight to your house

      I wasn’t “unaware” that it was possible, I’ve just never even heard of that happening. Every car I’ve ever bought and every car I’ve seen someone else buy had to be picked up from somewhere.

        I’m pretty sure Tesla has offered delivery to a home pretty much from the very beginning. I remember they had some money back guarantee when they announced it because obviously you can’t test drive if you don’t go to a dealership.

        I don’t even see what point you’re trying to make. All I said in my first comment is that having the car drive itself from the factory to your house saves Tesla the hassle of delivering it to you, and it will put unnecessary miles and wear & tear on the car before you even get to drive it.

        That was my first comment right? Now look at your reply to that. So I explained that a car can be delivered to your house on a flatbed truck where it won’t put on said unnecessary miles and wear & tear. No imaginary special concierge needed to pick you up and take you to a dealership to get your car. Do you agree? If yes, then I think the conversation has reached a conclusion.
