Tesla has serious quality control issues. They have serious design issues like being deliberately obtuse in the name of “innovation”. They haven’t made any significant improvements to any of their cars since the launch.
Most importantly, they have serious leadership issues. Particularly, a long history of deception and broken promises.
Musk was in the right place at the right time to launch Tesla. He’s got a pretty good corner on the battery market, and hopefully he doesn’t abuse that.
But, hey, I get it. You already gave a bunch of money to Elon, probably before he revealed how stupid and corrupt he is, and now you have to continue justifying that purchase to yourself. Don’t let me stand in your way.
$70k is a lot of money for most people. I make a decent living and have been looking to replace mine and $30-50k can get A LOT of car. Even that is well outside the majority of people’s affordability.
Tesla is a phenomenal car. The best electric on the market.

Quality is universally true. The only issue I’ve had is some paint issues. The paint is 100% garbage.
Innovation ? They’ve had plenty. The octovalve is a perfect example.

Teslas are less likely to catch fire than an ice car.

I don’t have to justify anything. I think it’s a great car as do most people who own them.
Most people who spent a lot of money on something tell themselves that it’s great.
It wasn’t a lot of money. It was 70k
$70k is a lot of money for most people. I make a decent living and have been looking to replace mine and $30-50k can get A LOT of car. Even that is well outside the majority of people’s affordability.
Electric cars are not cheap but 70k isn’t what I’d call expensive.
