If you can buy a Tesla cheap enough the usable parts, such as batteries and motors, can be moved to a different frame or vehicle. Even an ICE vehicle that you'd like to electrify. It's all just parts.

    I like the way you think. When Tesla tanks and gets sold off for pennies, could you please start a Tesla Conversion business? I'd like to have a useful EV pickup that can carry a slide-in truck camper. I don't need any of that self-driving shit or connections to the Cloud or giant touch screens. Just pedals, gauges, levers, buttons, and a steering wheel.

    There are some companies working on electric crate engines for conversion, I forget the names but they should be ready sometime soon
