        Why did you never want a Tesla? They definitely seemed like the cars of the future.

          The drivetrain is definitely one of the best for BEVs, but personally I’ve always hated the big touchscreen that Tesla insists on (and others have been copying)

      I came really close to buying an S years ago. It’s the tech that makes it for me. Performance, sure, but I’d take a self-driving Eames lounge in a heartbeat.

      What turned me off was the quality vs price. At that point, Elon has yet to fail so publicly at delivering on the tech. I knew I could pay less for a higher quality German car which would also have a more comfortable ride. As more and more came out about Tesla and Elon, I can only continue to appreciate my choice back then.
