A former retail worker who quit his job and sold his house to buy a Telsa has no regrets about his risky but lifechanging decision.
Melbourne man Ryan Cowan and his partner Paige wanted to 'shake things up' after spending the Covid pandemic in the Victorian capital.
The city endured the world's longest lockdown after living through more than 230 days of stay-at-home orders.
In February 2021, Mr Cowan, 32, quit his job and sold his house before moving to the coast to buy a block of land.
Three months later, the couple bought their first electric car, a Telsla Model 3 and made a $4,500 profit when they recently upgraded to a Model Y.
They also rented a Model X for a week.
Almost two years on, Mr Cowan estimates he's racked up a combined 20,000kms in his EVs and now earns a living in his 'dream job' spruiking the benefits of electric vehicles.
