    I’m in the EV market right now, looking for a good commuter car, and Tesla went from my #1 spot to one of the last options. It’s amazing how well he tanked that whole business. Luckily there’s a ton of competition cheaters now

      A conservative was talking at me a few weeks ago about how much he loved how Musk was pissing off the libs and about how he’s a shrewd businessman. I asked if he would buy a Tesla and he said never. He didn’t have a response when I told him Musk doesn’t sound like a good businessman.

      My dad was going to buy a Tesla up until a few years ago, there’s far more and better competition nowadays. And it’s really seeming Tesla’s are actively dangerous.

          Sure seems like it, and I see an article every other week about the self driving aspect hurting someone or getting into trouble. Just not worth the hassle.
