What happens when Elon loses more money and decides you're going to pay for the software updates or you're going to get one that makes your car useless? It won't be long before you'll have to pay a monthly "maintenance fee" just to be able to operate it. That's the problem with buying a car that they can do whatever they want to it whenever they want. I'll stick with a dumb car that doesn't tell anyone how I drive or where I go.

I love electric though and when it becomes more feasible, I'll start swapping some old fun stuff to electric. Until then though, I'll stick with dinosaur bones and boost.
