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.

    If you can afford it, the Mercedes EQE is awesome, but it’s a sedan so cargo space is limited. I don’t know about the SUV version. I prefer wagons to SUVs because they’re more practical. More space and better comfort for same money usually, as SUVs have bigger profit margins. There’s also a Shooting Brake version coming possibly, but it looks a bit weird and it’s still 2 years out.

    The Ioniq 5 wasn’t very nice compared to the ‘03 Mercedes I owned while I test drove it, I was disappointed with its’ ride quality, but as a vehicle for someone who’s not very demanding in that department, it seemed great.

    Avoid the hell out of the Skoda Enyaq. Not comfortable, not cheap, not fast. Idk if it does anything well. I suppose there was decent legroom in both front and back seats.

    The upcoming Volvo EX30 will be super fast for its price if you’re into that sorta thing, but also super minimalistic, and touch-screen based (newer Mercedes sadly have the same problem). Let me adjust the climate settings with physical switches!
