Jon S. von Tetzchner<p>Tesla sales are down. What a surprise...</p><p>I have never been a fan of Teslas. I am a fan of EVs, however, and there is just a lot of quality vehicles out there and most of them have a dashboard, which IMHO should be a requirement, as well as normal placement of things like turn signal controls and window wiper controls.</p><p>I know some of you just dislike cars in general and I respect that.

Please help me keep them at bay while I get ready for a month or two of training for my new job. It's $220 insurance, $280 car loan, $500 or so total just for those. I also have other expenses including food to cover and once again my accounts are well into the red. </p><p>Any amount spare helps, it all adds up.</p><p><a
