If they use the Supercharger network, or get the vehicle serviced by Tesla, then they're making money still.

But, the right thing to do is to keep running the vehicle, you're right about that.

At least some Teslas use the Supercharger network for free, so they're a drain on the company at this point. But I think they canned that program a while back for new sales.

Personally, if I picked one up (and I probably wouldn't unless it was even cheaper than they are now), I'd spray paint it in gaudy pansexual pride flag colors.
