We had a 3 and even though Musk was already an asshole idiot, we ended up swapping it out for a Y instead of another EV because the network is leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else. If they screw this up + keep opening it up to other manufacturers (which they should, that’s a good thing) I don’t see anyone our next cars being a Tesla.
It would free many of us. I've got 2 Teslas in my garage and nothing that uses gas anymore. Tesla made a decent EV / Tech, but the car itself is shitty and cheap. If there was another all electric car built by an established manufacturer with it's own network I'd buy that in a heartbeat.
The only other thing that Tesla really nailed (and that I would miss) is uniform pricing with online order. I don't want to go play the dealership middle salesman game ever again if I can help it.
