    I will never, ever understand how obscenely expensive, poorly made cars sold by a fascist got so damned popular.

        They have never not been poorly made.

        Somewhat tangential fact we should not forget: Musk didn’t found Tesla. He bought his way in but acts like he founded it.

          They were the only reasonable EV option for several years. They still have the best available charging network if any EV.

          I’m not selling a car that is paid off bc the owner of the company stopped hiding that he’s obvious trash.

              I bet if your house slides in the water anyone inside may well die. You gonna move? If not, why? If it’s because it doesn’t seem probable, then revisit your comment to me. Half of one percent of probability is not “basic things that save lives”, that would be seat belts, air bags, windshield wipers, a horn, etc. etc.

                You forget about conformity, if something doesn’t work how one would expect it to especially in an emergency then it’s poorly designed.

                If you pull a door handle the expected result is that it releases the door to be opened… If for every door you had to push,pull, lift, turn, check for a secret lever you would think door’s are shit…

                And that’s exactly what’s happening here…

                It only follows the standard when it’s not damaged…

                If my house slides into water we got a lot more issues happening and my doors will still work as expected…
