    Teslas are boring. There are only 4 of them and they all look the same. (And the cybertruck is an abomination, sorry if you’re going to buy one; good luck surviving all the steel balls people will be throwing at you)

      Don’t worry Tesla owners, this guy’s better than you and all along knew that he should be buying hummers.

      This smugness from basement dwellers is flat out embarassing.

          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.

        Swing and a miss, sparky. I’ve been driving electric for the last 7 years but have no interest in Tesla for a wide variety of reasons.

        Also I literally told you why I don’t like them — there are only 4 of them and they all look the same; do you think maybe the fact that they’ve become so ubiquitous over the last few years and so samey could contribute to changed perceptions of them? What’s new in 2017 is old in 2023.

        Just try and be a better person/contributor around here. Smarten up.
