I'm torn on this one. On the one hand, fuck Musk. On the other hand, the US replacing huge fleets of gas vehicles with electric and building out all the attendant infrastructure would be a huge climate win.
Plus, it's a vehicle that's likely to be shit for its owner, so I'm cool with cops having them en mass
Round about way to defund them, force them to spend funding on maintaining overpriced junk.
