No thanks. I'll take a Chevrolet Bolt, this year.
Tesla delivered 55,000 vehicles in 2015. They have orders for 400,000 Model 3's. They collected nearly a half billion dollars in deposits. With an operating loss of $150 million last year, that wlill take care of 3 years of operation but what happens after that when they try to deliver 8X the number of vehicles they currently produce...and at a much lower price?
I predict a not so great future for the nitwits that dropped $1000 deposits, the vehicle owners, the investors and Tesla itself, especially with oil barrel prices in the $35-45 range.

Respectfully disagree. A 26-month, interest free loan ALWAYS has opportunity cost. The fact that deposit rates are pitiful right now is largely irrelevant.
