I’m enjoying this. Also Musk went out and said that he wants barriers on trade or else the Chinese companies will dominate the market.

I thought Musk would be happy, because he truly wants to save the planet doesn’t he? It shouldn’t matter if he or someone else makes the best electric cars then?

    Might be different over there, but here Teslas are a great deal. There aren’t yet a lot of cheaper cars than the model 3, and none can beat the range at its price. Compared to Volkswagen, you get a prettier car, with more range and a heck of a lot better infotainment system, as well as some neat included features (like heated seats)

      A) There are way cheaper alternatives, with better build quality

      B) A Tesla will flat out lie to you about its range

      Electric cars generally have heated seats. Since heat doesn’t come as a free byproduct, it’s more efficient to keep occupants warm by heating the seats than the air.
