I agree with all of this but I wanted to make sure you know that Xtwit was not a founder of the company. That's Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenny. They did get money from the Xtwit and then he eventually took over through the use of more money. Xtwit is always taking credit for things he bought, but despite his belief everything is for sale, the fact is he hasn't independently produced much more than anyone else after overindulging in an ill-advised diet. Facts are facts and buying things doesn't make you an inventor.
I was delirious towards the end there, what I was trying to say politely is that Elon produces shit and that's about it for things he alone has created. I don't know why I was tiptoing around saying it.
You are correct on Elon. From what I've heard of him speaking, he's not particularly eloquent or even singular in his thinking. I do tend to agree with him on free enterprise, but I do know that comes at a cost.
Here I've noticed that the worst Tesla drivers are always in the white SUV kind of looking ones. I don't know if that's universal, and I'm still confused by how many I see here in Louisville. Because, it's the biggest city in the state but come on.
I still own an old fashioned pick-up that is parked in the driveway and people to this day occasionally drop by offering me money for it. I am not selling it and do not intend to part with it. People realize they do not want these EVs.
The passion for old cars used to be mysterious to me but as I get older I become more appreciative of classic things.
I had a dream once where Elon took over Santa's operation and replaced Santa and his reindeer with an EV... the EV being powered by lumps of coal. Needless to say nobody got presents after that :-(
Are you starting to see a lot of buyer's remorse? Buying an EV seems to scratch a certain itch, whether it's keeping up with the Joneses or fulfilling a green civic duty that dupes one into thinking they've found a loophole in the production/waste cycle.
Your dream has become an egregore of this phenomenon, lol.
My parents bought an EV and a hybrid. I've been called over to fix them because they always got some stupid problem with them. With the hybrid I can fix most things except the annoying computer stuff, in which they have to just take it to a dealership where a mechanic has the computer he can hook up to it to fix whatever bug is in the system.
I told them to stick with old fashioned but they would not listen.

Duly noted.

For such a vain statement as buying a Tesla, you'd think there'd be more options.

Interesting to see what happens to all the dead batteries.
But we're saving the environment, Bradley! ... if we ignore where the dead batteries go, that is.
Hahahah loved this “Well, I'm afraid no composer has come forward with a Christmas carol to exorcize Rudolph back to hell.”
There's an Anti Santa Claus? I thought Krampus had that job.
Thank you, Angela.
