Imagine if your printer was also your car. That's what owning a Tesla is like.

IDK about the nazi thing. For me it's a combination of the fact that the car is handled like a piece subscription software by the company, the blatant disregard for local laws, and the general smugness of the the licensees, who'll call themselves owners, but that is only until Musk decides otherwise.

There are other great EVs on the market, and they don't come with subscription packages and proprietary chargers. Tesla is the MacBook of cars.

Mostly fair comment, but the Tesla charging connection is vastly superior. It will become standard I believe. Ford is adopting it and others are heading that way.

Teslas can use BOTH sets of chargers, but without a lot of hacking the reverse isn't true.

I'm glad Hyundai Kia are reasonable competition. It's sad other makers aren't.
