I'm 100% on board with that if the return process is pretty frictionless. I need to be able to test out the vehicle for a few days without making a full commitment just based on online product reviews

I don't see how it could be anything but a hassle. Consider:

- The vehicle is financed and you'd have to unwind the financing. That has to be a pain in the ass.

- You traded in your old car.

Plus stories about Tesla being really bad at giving people their money on returns (or even cancelled/upgraded leases) quickly.

I can’t afford to have most of 40k sitting in limbo for a while while Tesla figures something out. Can you?

The real answer to this question is: nobody can afford $40k in limbo.

The 30-day US Treasury is at 2.44% this week. This means you get $81 / month MINIMUM if you just leave that in US Treasury Bonds. That's the lowest-risk Treasury available, you make more money with any other investment on the market.
