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.

    You seem to have me confused with another user. You say I’m still not correct, but that was my first comment.

    Like, I said the risks you’re talking about are very small and only for using that absolute last bit of gas. You can go beyond 1/4 of a tank remaining and not encounter those risks. And I’m not sure what your point is since it’s not like most people drive their EVs to less than 5-10% SOC remaining. They also don’t DCFC to 100% so they end up with 70% of their usable range for all except the first leg.

    There’s also the fact that if an ICE has 400 miles of range, it has 350 miles of range at 80 MPH in 10 F weather. An EV with 400 miles of EPA rated range on the other hand will have more like 150 miles of usable range in those conditions.
