I, for one, definitely won't be buying another Tesla as long as Naziboy Musk has anything to do with the company.

Then you must be a Tesla fan? Tesla’s made for EV vehicles have always been much lighter than legacy manufacturers first attempts at converting their ice cars to EV. My model Y is half that weight, and the biggest “car” style is the model X at 5,200 pounds

And your model y is still twice the weight of my mx-5 will have double the depreciation, and won't make it the 220-250 k miles without major repairs as mine. Who made the better choice?
