Ugh yeah I’m waiting on the Tesla M2… The problem with car companies is they keep on adding more crap that 80% of people don’t need, that adds more points of failure while increasing pricing

That’s why I drive a 2007 chevy pickup. Most things I can fix myself and the only thing that’s going to get it off the road is rust in 20 or 30 years

It’s a 25k car that I’m taking out a loan for… The gas savings alone make it pretty much free… I just don’t see spending upwards of $40k
