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.

    @Redonkulation I own a Tesla and a F350. I don’t know how anyone can justify ICE without a purpose. I used mine for contracting work and rv service. Having said that my truck costs me as much to fill up as my Tesla yearly.

    meaning I pay 1/10th. The real question is what’s the break even. There’s no HD truck EV so kinda gotta wait. Use it only when needed as it’s expensive. Even though I get 27mpg it’s still expensive compared. Costs me $9.10 to go 208 miles on in the Tesla vs $55 for 208 miles in my truck. I also own a 42mpg mini that is $18 per 208 miles.

    15k miles is new standard so?

    Tesla at 15k miles $656 yearly.
    F350 at 15k miles $3966 yearly.
    Mini at 15k miles $1296 yearly.

    Application to payment?
    F350 allows switch to EV that costs 275 more per month.
    Mini allows for $55 a month.

    It’s all math and what works more than anything. I drive my Tesla way more than anything else as it’s cheaper.
