    There was a time I wanted a Tesla, but I don’t anymore. This is just another reason why.

    Does Tesla care about making a “neat thing” or do they care about making “a car that can drive me places”. The doors clearly show they prioritize making a “neat thing”, but I want a reliable car.

    Opening and closing doors was a solved problem. Somehow Tesla made it worse.

      Neither. Care about making money.

      Same, but cars in general now. I used to look forward to driving, but now I’m sick of it. Biking and ebikes have made going places fun again :)

      I understand wanting a Tesla maybe 5-6 years ago when they were a little ahead of the competition and the only ones with a big touch screen etc. and people didn’t understand that “self driving” is just a marketing term. And of course Musk hadn’t fully revealed his political agenda.

      Not nowadays? Almost all EV are better than Tesla and at the very least buying one doesn’t line the pocket books of a Nazi.
