    There was a point in time where Teslas really were the only good EV worth talking about.

    Unfortunately, that’s arguably still true, in the us. Given the current administration’s desire to roll back the calendar, outside EVs have been effectively banned, and many of the choices we were finally about to get were cancelled.

    If I were looking for a new EV today, Tesla is still by far the most compelling choice available to me.

    I bought it back in 2022ish, before Elon's association with Republican politics.

    That said- I'd buy another one in a heartbeat, new or used. The self driving feature is light years ahead of anything else. And unlike other manufactures (looking at GM) they don't sell their customers driving habits to insurance companies. The security is actually pretty good unlike most automakers who institutionally don't understand computers so they outsource most of it to their suppliers like Bosch, Delphi, etc.
