    Lol, why is this guy trying to talk directly to Elon? There has to be some other customer support option that would be more effective.

    Elon deffo banned him 🤣🤣🤣

    On a real tho bare people hating on Tesla once Elon got into politics, a lot of those people praising Tesla before that. EVs were always a shit idea in general, and he’s been a fraud since day 1. There’s more to life than just politics.

    I guarantee you if he supported Obama’s campain a lot of you sheep would still meatride Elon like all of Trump’s cult members are.

              Yeah, with the lack of quality and attention to detail and likelihood to trap you in and burn you alive if you crash it goes horrifyingly fast. Not any faster than your average luxury car, but more deadly

                I mean im no apologyst and i hate the guy as much as anybody, but its significantly faster than your average ice luxury car. I would never buy a tesla now, but i also am not a fan of skewing the facts to fit a narrative. The cars were shit in the beginning and are much better now. Pretty, well equipped and fast. But dont buy any of them, fuck tesla. And fuck elon especially.

      This has nothing to do with face-eating leopards. He did not wish for other people to get their cars broken.

    21 miles and screen absolutely covered in dust. These things must be sitting for ages and not selling. Not even a wipe down from the Tesla store.

        Still, the bottom corner of the film is peeling. Could have been sitting on a lot for a long time, but peeling like that after only a few test drives at most?

        Edit: I ended up digging into his Twitter page and everything is legit. And I’m baffled.

        I’d expect the dealership to give it a quick detail before letting the customer drive away, even used car dealerships do that. But I guess when we’re talking about Tesla all bets are off.

          If a dealer detailed my factory new car before giving it to me I would refuse delivery

          I don’t think Tesla dealers work on commission (basing this entirely off the comment of a rando on this site without verification), so that would help explain it.

            You’d think the dealership would step in though. If I bought a $100k vehicle I’d be beyond livid if it was delivered in that condition. The fact that it’s also broken is just a cherry on top

              Tesla doesn’t have a dealer network, you’re buying direct. Their delivery and service quality is amusing at best.
