Wait what’s wrong with Tesla products? In my experience they are the most user friendly cars ever built. I never have to think about it — it locks, unlocks, and turns on and off without intervention, it opens and closes my garage door without intervention, it “has a full tank” for less money, and a conditioned cabin every morning (haven’t been to a gas station in 5 years), and I never need to think about oil, belts, or rotors needing attention. Autopilot and FSD significantly reduce my workload in the drivers seat. It’s not perfect, and Elon Musk is a total asshat, but I can’t think of a more revolutionary user experience when you consider what the other automaker’s offer. I can’t stress enough how easy my Tesla makes the act of transportation.

So why the hate? If for the ties to Elon, I get that and am fully on board, but I feel like most of you have never actually experienced the product?

Edit: Y’all have failed to convince me that Tesla ownership is equivalent to printer ownership.

It's honestly really hard to distinguish genuine criticism of the product from rabid Elon-hate on the internet. He's an ass, and I've read what seem like real complaints about Teslas, but the internet tends to lose all rationality when it hates someone, so I try to take anything I read with a grain of salt.

Yeah man. People love to bash Elon and rightfully so. I live in Southern California, I drive a Tesla and a lot of my friends do also. I used to travel a lot for work, and would regularly rent nice cars for weeks on end. My Tesla is the car I've enjoyed most ever, and it's not really even close.

Yeah it has problems. But what car doesn't? Nothing is perfect. But for me, the features that Teslas have check all the boxes in a really novel and enjoyable way.
