Indeed. The insane part is not that Tesla built an absolute dumpster fire of a vehicle, that was something that should have been obvious at every point.

The insane part is the number of people who were somehow able to put up $120k for one, and proudly boast how awesome their new car was even though it spent most of its time in the repair shop or breaking doing very basic things, and failing to do "Truck" things that even my hatchback can manage.

Presumably it's not a coincidence that so many of them were bought by brand new weed shop owners.

I once saw a Ferrari trying to negotiate speed bumps and a roundabout. On a road that has a 30 kilometre speed limit.

For me a car is essentially a tool so it needs to be practical. But for others it's a hobby.
