People are waking up to the obvious fact that what they thought were Tesla-specific features (like the powerful torque and acceleration) are actually features of a battery powered electric motor per se. Saying that to a Tesla-Fan will still get you a “why are you hating” reply. Musk and Trump truly have figured out how to brainwash the dumbest.
Always loved and wanted to support electric cars. But my first will never be a Tesla.
get rid of that cunt, improve the quality of your cars and maybe I consider to buy a tesla...
I had half a mind to buy one after I graduate college. But I don't know if I can right now given the fact it directly benefits Elon.
I am probably in the market for an electric vehicle for my next car in a few years and I would certainly avoid Tesla.
I don't have huge feelings about Elon but I have the strong suspicion that owning a Tesla makes you look like a neckbeard now.

Or the vast majority of people can not afford Teslas. The die hards have bought them already or have died in them already.
The heavy irony here is the only people who defend Elon cannot afford a Tesla. The people who think he represents them aren’t even his target audience.
In my case, it was more of a powerwall (the cars had too many issues already), but yep; not touching anything to do with this reprehensible shitstain. I avoid giving money to such people/companies whenever it's possible.
I have a 2012 Honda, I'll likely never be able to afford another car. I would love to have Chinese EV options here though.
BYD is in Mexico and selling so we see them on the streets. They are sharp looking cars.
