  All the posts keep using the $ symbol. But I bet that’s exactly what’s going wrong.

    Earlier it was listed at 17k Euro which is only $18k USD. Somehow that figure doubled in the last hour.

      From the article.

      A Scottish couple has been confronted with a £17,374 (A$33,370) bill after their Tesla Model Y wouldn’t start after a night out.

        Them exchange rates be crazy. I wonder if it really fluctuated $5k between the time of the article and when I looked it up yesterday.
