The ratio of quality of life acquired per dollar spent is simply too low, because you are essentially buying a giant battery with a car built around. And it shows given the boring design language and the lack of quality in materials (both inside and outside the vehicle)

And on top of all that I just know business owners, the moment they start talking about 'mission' and 'vision' or 'future' is the moment they are trying to screw you over. Likewise the moment they start to advertise themselves in their personal capacity it's because they know that the product is weak and can't stand on its own merit, so it needs constant cheerleading/fluffing.

I used Windows before I knew who Gates was, I used Amazon before I knew who Bezos was, I was googling before I knew who Sergey & Larry & Shcmidt were, same with Facebook and Youtube.

In the car department I am very happy with my BMW 3-series. If I ever feel the need to drive faster than that, I'll just go to the track and pay for 10-15 laps on a Corvette or a Mustang, a Ferrari or a Lambo if I feel exotic.

That's about it, I also don't care about climate change, emissions , the Ozone layer and all the stuff that Tesla zelots seem to be so extremist about .
