Chels’ Tesla registration was about to expire, her Bluetooth wouldn’t connect, and the DMV was already haunting her dreams.
So she did what any rational, financially sensible person would do – in girl math terms, anyway – and bought a brand-new Audi e-tron instead of renewing it.
Because why drop a few hundred on paperwork when you can drop a few tens of thousands and get a fresh set of wheels?
Her 15-second TikTok confession has already pulled over 100,000 views, with commenters lining up to say the same thing: “This is the logic we support.”

From Tesla Bluetooth hell to e-tron heaven
The clip opens with Chels sitting in her car, with a text overlay spelling out the math: “My registration was out and my phone wouldn’t connect to my Tesla. So I bought a new car on my way home.”
Next shot – Audi e-tron steering wheel, quick flex.
TikTok comments came in hot.
One woman said she trades in her car every single time registration is due, telling her husband it’s ‘saving [them] money.’
Another got rid of her car when she needed brakes. Someone else? “Did this when I needed new tires.”
Arizona even rewards you for it – trade or sell before your reg expires and you get a refund for the unused months.
Trading up? That’s the perfect blend of girl math and survival instinct.
Girl math meets car culture
What Chels did isn’t random – it’s part of a bigger shift.
Modern cars, especially from luxury brands, tend to lock owners into dealer-only repairs with proprietary parts and special tools.
Both Tesla and Audi play that game.
So when your options are to either pay dealership prices to fix a problem or upgrade, the showroom wins. Especially for a generation that swaps phones the second the battery starts lagging.
It’s car ownership as a subscription: Bluetooth stops pairing? Upgrade. Tires worn out? Upgrade. Don’t like the vibe? Upgrade. Financially risky? Maybe. But happiness-per-dollar ratio? Off the charts.
Judging by the comment section, plenty of people are ready to throw their keys at the dealer if their infotainment ever freezes. And honestly… same.
Chels turned a Bluetooth glitch into a leather-lined, electric-powered fresh start. It might not pass an accountant’s audit, but in girl math, this Audi e-tron basically turned a profit.
