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.

    the electricity their car uses is most probably (around 94% [1]) generated using fossil fuels

    that highly depends on where you live and is probably wildly exaggerated for most of the people reading your comment

      Not to mention that even if you are burning fossil fuels to power your EV, burning said fuel in a power plant and storing it in a battery is vastly more efficient than burning it in your own little personal power plant (i.e. an internal combustion engine).

      I think I read somewhere that driving a typical EV on a full charge is the energy equivalent of having a typical ICE car with a 3 gallon tank of gas.
