So you think it's just cultural differences between the West and East Coast? That's possible. I'm in the tech scene in NYC so I may have a lot more in common with the West Coast culture than the one here.

I have spoken with a few of my non-tech friends about Tesla and they're all pretty bearish on it so maybe you're right. What do non-tech people on the West Coast thing about it?

I think girls are more interested in "green" issues in SF than on the east coast, so if you are a rich guy buying a car to help with the mating game, a Tesla might be a better choice out here. It is also a $100k car you can buy to claim to be forward thinking on tech and the environment, rather than just flaunting wealth (which is discouraged here).
