What was going on in the background during the last 10 seconds of the video? You hear a bang, then someone repeating "Watch your legs officers!".

Good news! Tariffs just made new stuff significantly more expensive so the resale value will be higher now. /s
I was curious so I went to look up the average egg price and see the reported price by the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows it is an average of $3.13/dozen as of March 26th, magically down from $8.17/dozen on March 1st. However, the lowest reported price in any state is $6.79 in Virginia. So something is quite fishy.
Edit: This article seems to shed a little more light on things. The wholesale price has dropped but retail prices will lag. Sounds like a drop in egg demand due to high prices and farms getting caught up on egg laying hens and causing the wholesale market to settle down.
They mention just doing the bare minimum to keep from getting fined, otherwise they wouldn't bother with any of it. Instead of even looking at a proper fish ladder they are just making a permanent trap-and-haul feature.
Depends what you want to do. They don't require a network connection to operate as a vehicle. So if you don't care about the remote app features (local ones such as lock/unlock still work over BLE), live traffic, streaming music or updates, then a network connection isn't necessary.
If you do want any of those features, then you would need to either get root access to the gateway and infotainment systems to modify the endpoints or take over the C&C server (formerly named "mothership") domains and certificates.
3900-3500 = 400?
The main things are removing the cellular connection and disabling the connection back to the Tesla services. Back in the old days you could pull the SIM card, root the center and driver's displays, setup firewall rules to block traffic to/from the Tesla servers, and disable the VPN.
This is more difficult with the newer models. You can still pull the SIM, but would need to get creative for root access since it is a continuous game of whack-a-mole between the root methods and patches.
Would you consider a BMW 3 Series a similar sized ICE car?
According to BMW they range from 3536-4008 lbs.
Will certainly be a bummer if they do go under, I really appreciated their serviceability. Have several in the immediate family that have been going for over 7 years at this point though all kinds of calamities. Each time can I just pop out all the components clean/replace as necessary and get it back in service, good as new.
The Atlanta Federal Reserve GDPNow is estimating that Q1 GDP is -2.8%. Originally it was predicted to be +2%.
