    Was gonna say this. Apple is definitely overpriced and has horrible business practices but the end product is usually good.

    Teslas are not well made and will probably get worse. Also look up the solar panels Solar City (bought by Tesla…renamed I believe) makes. They routinely catch on fire. I could go on.

    Elon’s only actual skill is conning people.

      Solar City appears to be nothing more than a shell company. They barely produce anything and it’s essentially all vaporware.

      I’m uncertain as to the truth of this but I’ve heard that the Chinese high-end market is extremely demanding and they are savage if high-end products don’t live up to expectations. The rumor is that Chinese Teslas have far better construction quality than their western counterparts which have about two coats of paint and more gaps and misalignments than a person who just had their teeth kicked in
