Most people don't research the CEO of a car company before buying a car. Who is the CEO of ford no idea he could be a complete lunatic as far as I'm aware, I don't know because his personal attitude isn't relevant to my car buying decisions.

It's ridiculous to expect people to not buy a Tesla simply because it's CEOs in the moron most CEOs are. It's practically part of the job description.

    Find me a person who doesn't know who Elon Musk is, go ahead, I'll wait.

    It isn't about who knows who the Elon Musk is it's about who cares who Elon Musk is.

    Why should I care who some random CEO is? If you can answer that question you will impress me because CEOs don't have a lot to do with what the company does, they have a lot to do with how the company is perceived. Think about Tesla is that for whatever reason they decided to be a 100% perception company and a 0% results company. Presumably because their results are unimpressive.
