Red or you’re dead to me but I agree. Tesla’s are garbage. They are poorly put together. Just look up some tear down videos of new Tesla’s to witness the horror for yourself.
Oh also that battery capacity upgrade you can buy? Yeah they can also throttle your battery too via a software update. Imagine if your car manufacturer installed a plug in your gas tank that prevented you from filling it up without paying a fee. The entire business is a complete clown show.
I owned a Prius Prime so much I made a YouTube video about it. Sure it’s not a full EV but it’s fast and super wallet friendly. The video I made was a no gas challenge since I drive really far everyday for my old job.
Not to defend deceptive business practices, but software battery limits are slightly different from a fuel tank being smaller. By not allowing the battery to charge as close to its full capacity, a software size limit can actually significantly improve the longevity of the lithium cells. Batteries sustain the most damage when they’re charged completely to full, and even the best battery management systems can’t prevent all of the damage. This is also why charging speed is significantly slower near the end of a full charge cycle.
All he had to do was shut up. He could’ve thought all this stuff, maybe done some of it, and still been hailed as a hero. But the more he opens his mouth, the harder he makes it for anyone to overlook who he really is.
The lack of self-reflection going on here is so painful to watch.
Elon is slowly but surely tearing down everything he has created bought.
Fixed that for you
Every single accomplishment he has involves buying a company that was already doing it, establishing himself as a “founder”, and then taking all the credit.
Except that so far he hasn’t faced any real repercussions. He keeps selling cars and internet and getting contracts from NASA. A bunch of banks may have to write off their twitter investments but, much like trump for several decades, it will not significantly impact his ability to get new credit.

I was about to buy a white Tesla but now I’m not so sure about the Tesla at all, but especially that combination.

Okay yes but cheap car go quick in straight line. 😅
I’m definitely in agreement in general but it’s hard to find anything that quick, which is my favorite part of my aging c63, for that price.

Bought.
Always a good distinction. Ever see presentations from the actual founders of Tesla? They are impressive.

Maybe for you. I’m loving every minute of it. When is it Bezos’ turn?
Other people always did the actual work - he’s just less effectively handled now, so his personal incompetence is harder to hide.

He’s tearing down everything that other people created, you mean?
