I admit it, I see a Tesla now and think: "Sucker."

It’s in a free fall across the ideological spectrum.

his few hundred million got him in excess of 14B in a week or so
But now I can see he's not smart enough to think that far ahead. He's just another opportunist. Nothing more.
Now you will to! In snow? Get out of its way!
And not sure how many cars Elowine Musk thinks he can sell to his MAGAs.
Gasoline engines support Putin and the Saudis. Life is complicated
People burn in gas cars too.
The main problem with it as I see is that passengers don’t know where those releases are. Something as important as “the way to escape the car” shouldn’t need to be found in an owner’s manual.
For them, I recommend this sticker:
Cybertrucks, OTOH.....
(I added the bumpah stickah that mocks Elmo-It will have to do.)
Once seen, never unseen.
Yes, that technology was a bit early-hyped across the board, but somehow it was Teslas that had the feature installed & useable even though it wasn’t ready for prime time yet.
He's glad that we never got one. They are poorly made & takes a long time for repairs. Plus, repairs are pricey.
Now Musk is against subsidies ... for everybody else.

“I bought this car before I knew how crazy he is”
CA is his largest market, oh well.
But...sucker is certainly in the train of thought.
"It seats seven people!"
(If they're small people, who you don't particularly like)
"It goes 350 miles without charging!"
(No, it does not)

What I think is so much worse... 😅
I don't understand the people who would buy one now.
I.e: Somehow the seat warmer got turned on and it took me way, way too long to find how to turn it off on one of the menu screens- in my Honda, it's just a button.
I guess Tesla shows there's such a thing as too much brand recognition. Heh.
Either way, that’s some expensive virtue-signaling
Is not the virtue-signaling I described above, but the successful marketing that REAL men drive trucks.
One of the most revolutionary vehicles ever produced.
And Blue social goes attack dog on it.
Why?
"I got this before I knew how awful he was."
MG EVs cost Au$30K (and they don't corner like a tank)
Now you can look at them and hope that “RIP” isn’t going to be appropriate soon. 😳
