Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Why was he towing them?
You make it sound like they were randomly failing and not involved in accidents etc
I used to own a Model X. 13 failures in 4 years, including 3 where the car was just dead and needed rescuing.
They’re cheap cars, badly made. They do just die.
I no longer own a Model X.
If it was for accidents, the other brands would also have similar stats, moreso since teslas are also fairly rare over here compared to byd, and even bmw and mercs electirc lines.
We'll have to wait for clarification from him but I'm pretty sure that's exactly what he means.
