Tesla’s reputation slumps as GM, Ford climb - Tesla ranked 62nd by reputation among the 100 most visible brands, tumbling from 12th last year and 8th in 2021.::undefined
As a Tesla owner…good. Screw Melon Tusk.
At the moment, it doesn’t make a ton of financial sense for me to just go buy something else, but I feel ashamed driving this thing every day now and it sucks.
Don’t feel bad. Basically all car companies were once run by lunatic fascists. Henry Ford was total scum. There’s probably not a single German car company whose Wikipedia article’s “history” section doesn’t get horrifying around 1939. I don’t know what Enzo Ferrari was doing in WWII but it probably wasn’t great.
Pretty much as you would suspect. In the late 30s they changed over to manufacturing for the war effort, business was booming for them, turns out war makes a lot of money. Eventually they were making bearings and tools for Germany. Allies found out started targeting their factories and they moved them. Got bombed again after moving.
