CEO of Tesla and acting President-elect Musk is going on a neo-Nazi binge endorsing far right candidates instead of properly running the companies he’s involved in such as Tesla.
In addition Tesla is considered one of the most unreliable car brands according to: https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-placed-bottom-consumer-reports-reliability-rankings/
Moreover Tesla has the highest fatal accident rates of all car brands according to: https://www.roadandtrack.com/news/a62919131/tesla-has-highest-fatal-accident-rate-of-all-auto-brands-study/
Also there are privacy implications with using a car that could in theory spy on you: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/05/massive-trove-of-tesla-files-contains-thousands-of-safety-complaints/
Now that more competent and establish brands are making EVs there’s no reason to buy a Tesla if you want an EV. I’m not here to recommend another brand, I’m just here to tell you that your next EV should be anything other than a Tesla.
I’m eyeing Lucid right now, but hoping for even more competition over the next couple few years.
I hate Elon. I want him to get Luigi’d, but my Tesla is paid off and costs me basically nothing now except shame. So I think it’d be wiser to drive it until it dies or something happens and it gets totaled out.
I agree though, don’t buy a Tesla. I’ve told all my friends and family not to get one. Anyone who asks me how I like it I just say it sucks and to look at other brands.
Hey man don’t let that get to you, at the end of the day if you have an already paid vehicle the smart move is to run it as long as you can bear it, it’s also the most eco friendly. It sucks about Elon and it’s definitely a big part of why my EV isn’t a Tesla (among other things) but who cares what people think when they see you on the road you know you’ve got your heart in the right place. If it bothers you so much just put one of these stickers on it.
