Imagine if your printer was also your car. That’s what owning a Tesla is like.

Having a Tesla is one of the most liberating experiences. I don’t have to go to gas stations, I don’t sit in lines at the gas station, I don’t even have to turn the car off. I get to where I’m going stop the car. Get out walk away without doing anything at all. I didn’t put it in park. I didn’t turn it off. I just opened the door, walked out and closed the door and the car did the rest for me. On a hot summer day and I’m coming back out with a bunch of frozen groceries. I tell the car to go ahead and be cold inside before I get there.
Sure. The owner of Tesla is a giant jerk but that doesn’t change any of the benefits. The full self-driving feature is absolute garbage. Don’t trust it. Don’t buy it. But in terms of a car being a good car, it’s a great car. The center of gravity is practically in the road. It’s a very difficult car to flip. It’s structurally very sound. If it catches fire, that’s a super bad time. Mine is all-wheel drive so it’s super zippy from a light, corners really well, and is a lot quieter than other vehicles I’ve had. To be fair, those other vehicles were loud sports cars, but the point remains.
Is the car perfect?? No. Is the owner an a sshole? Yes. Well worth every penny, and the operating costs per mile are multiples better than the other vehicles I own.
Don’t worry about your downvotes. These people can’t separate Musk from Tesla and they are DEDICATED to disliking Tesla.
Oh, yes, there’s nothing more imprisoning than having to turn your car off. I can’t imagine how people are able to deal with it.

You’ll know once you experience it
Sounds like the benefits you’re describing are benefits of driving any EV, right? The only Tesla-specific thing I think you mentioned you said was garbage.
I don’t think the " stop get out walk away" feature has been replicated.
Hyundai/ Kia are the only real competitors which is a bit weird. Some of the cars not only won’t turn themselves off, they will start harassing you to go back, get in the car, and turn off the car. It knows you left and just cries about it and scolds you va. Just putting itself into low power mode. It knows you aren’t in a seat and your Bluetooth left.
None have the charging options of a Tesla except Tesla and now maybe Ford because a deal was made.
Tesla can use Tesla charging and CCS.
The austere interior isn’t for everyone.
The raw performance puts Tesla in the lead but the EV6 is very quick
Where do you live that you sit in line at a gas station? I’ve never sat at a gas station.
