    The Tesla hate is justified though, the cars are so cheaply made and rushed that earlier versions of the model 3 had the bumpers fall off when it rained because it accumulated water… lol

      How is this different than when boomers ripped on Fiats in the 70’s? The cars were also poorly manufactured, and in the case of this example, were also known for shitting the bed when the weather got bad.

        I didn’t say it was different or better, Fiat’s are still pretty terrible in reliability rankings as well

          Just saying that it’s the same thing. Different generation, but still people ripping on cars have justified reliability problems. Younger generations do the same thing that the boomers did.
