We’ve known for years that the owner is a lying, creepy, out of touch dipshit and that it’s a very flawed car and the company will cut costs to save money on safety items, every time.

Electric vehicles with drive assist are awesome and are the future, but there are alternatives, especially if you have money, which a lot of Tesla customers do. And they’re not particularly well built; how many of these do you think will be on the road 20 years from now? And now we’ve seen how Elaine runs their companies, why the hell would anybody put their trust in their products?

If you’ve bought a Tesla in the last five or so years, you’re a damn goober in my eyes. That’s my hot take, prepared for being called poor and other sodium, tear filled comments from fools whose opinions don’t matter. You are the hardcore, foaming at the mouth Segway fan from the 2000s, have at me lol.

Update: The teary eyed, sweaty fingered responses to this are predictably hilarious. I’ve been called a guy that eats 4 pizzas a week in another old thread because of this, a cunt, a tool, a douche, a couple people spent their energy to tell me they don’t understand me spending my energy posting this, some people are telling me something about Tesla or Elaine living in my head rent free. All genuinely pathetic responses, so GG lol. Cheers.

    Musk has lost a lot of respect over the years and that’s continuing in the same trajectory. I always sensed he wasn’t being honest and I guess he kind of is being more himself.

    Tesla is way over priced than what it’s actually worth to build the vehicles, this is based on what they’ve said themselves. The fact is it’s in so much demand that as usual when that happens the price increases. Other companies just need to make the jump to EV vehicles for Tesla’s to need to lower prices or improve even more, but your post reeks of some other reasoning to why you’re posting this.

      It’s been said a million times, but being overpriced and insisting on totally unnecessary (and downright harmful to the EV industry) proprietary connectors makes them the Apple of cars.

      The parallels are stunning. They need to be stifled before anything they do in this sphere seems like a good idea.
