      Don’t own a Tesla, probably never will, just recognize the cringey basement dweller behaviour of everyone in here gleefully pretending like Tesla’s are any different just cause they don’t like the owner now. It’s a bunch of hater energy losers dunking on an easy target that’s uncool now. Congrats guys, you did it, you felt superior to others today.

          I wasn’t, and don’t own and never have owned a car. I was insulting them for being haters which was made apparent by their hater comments.

            If you’ve never owned a car, maybe you don’t know whether or not people are right to hate Teslas. Just a thought.

              Not owning a car doesn’t mean I don’t drive / rent / carshare them, and since when is owning a car a requirement for determining whether or not Teslas are aesthetically pleasing? I have eyes and go outside.
