Despite sales restrictions, Tesla is building a small base in Texas
Most young car buyers like Brad Holt can barely afford to fantasize about luxury sedans such as the ultra-chic $70,000 Tesla Model S.
Moreover, the all-electric Tesla — a long, slinky new sedan that is probably the highest-profile electric vehicle ever — can’t even be sold in Texas technically.
But the 26-year-old Holt, an independent film producer in Dallas, wanted one so much that he took all the money he earned from his first big job and poured it into a deposit on a Model S — before he had even driven one.
“I’m very interested in gadgets and techie stuff, and the transition to renewable energy,” said Holt, who also does video production for the University of North Texas. “This is all my favorite stuff in one package.”
