Some big names have announced their sales of Tesla, including former Angel-Investor owner converted into Canalabisia Joanne Wilson.
“We are not the only owners of Tesla who want to get rid of their cars.

Wilson and her husband, risk capitalist Fred Wilson, apparently possessed two teslas. While one was changed, the other could have a more disastrous destination.
In the same blog post, Wilson said he was considering putting the other Tesla in front of his cannabis dispensary in Manhattan, Gotham, April 20, and letting people destroy it.
“My partner suggested that we take our other Tesla, yes, we had two, now one, and we put it in front of Gotham on 4/20. We could give the dolls, let people crush the car and film it for Instagram. It can become viral,” he wrote.
Senator Mark Kelly, D-AZ., Published a video earlier this week announcing that he was also separating from his tesla. The legislator, who is an astronaut retired from NASA, said he bought the vehicle “because it was fast as a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people.”
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump bought a Tesla earlier this month to show his support for the technology billionaire. He said the vehicle was “a great product, as good as possible.” He also praised Musk and said he was “treated very unfairly.”
“I just want people to know that they can’t be penalized for being a patriot,” Trump told journalists outside the White House. “And he is a great patriot. And he has also done incredible job with Tesla.”

Apparently, Christina was summoned for $ 2,000 to replace the broken glass in her vehicle. While many sell their teslas, the experience of Hazel and Christina with vandalism made them double. Christina and her husband ordered a collectible liquidation cyber from Tesla and Hazel said she bought even more of the company’s shares.
