    In what is likely a first for Car and Driver (C/D historians and archivists are still fact-checking this), we have actually paid real money for a new car. We are leasing a Tesla Model 3.

    Here’s a short version of the inside baseball behind this decision: We usually request vehicles from manufacturers, and without too much of a wait, these cars appear at our office for testing. Some of the test cars remain for a two-week loan, and some commit to a 40,000-mile stay. We have repeatedly asked Tesla for vehicles to test, but lately, company reps have been painfully slow to respond to our requests. And we're impatient.

    Yeap, Tesla is having trouble selling Model 3s so they don't have any freebies for car magazines. Consumer Reports sends their regards.
