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.

    Except industry trend has started shifting to the NACS plug in the last couple months. That means that all the current CCS vehicles are looking like a worse proposition. Problem is that we won’t really see Tesla plug vehicles from other manufacturers until 2025

      I don’t believe Tesla deserves any credit for only just now starting to play nice standards wise.

        They don’t. 8 charging locations that follow the actual standard other manufacturers finally agreed on is pathetic. The fact that the charging networks dropped the ball so fucking hard in the US that manufacturers are throwing in the towel and switching to Tesla’s plug is where the failure really occurred.
