You know, as much as I think Tesla sucks, I kinda feel bad pissing in someone's cheerios. My Sister-in-law loves hers. She's never had a car she really liked until now. Ima just let her be happy with her car.

"Your sister" spent $120k on that... she spends that kind of money on cars ans has "never had a car she likes"? What a weird and very likely BS statement.

That car is measurably more dangerous for the other cars and pedestrians around it on the road. If she is real, she sucks for buying and driving that thing (and for supporting elon and all his horseshit with the purchase)

I truly feel happy for her. I once had a hammer, which was the first hammer I really loved. Didn’t use it often but just seeing it in the toolbox gave me a good feeling.

You should look for more reasons to get your hammer out and use it! I hear the OP's sister has a truck that could use a good hammering! Don't let your hammer sit around gathering dust when there's some much joy you could get out of it.

He didn’t say she has a cybertruck, Jesus Christ guys. I have a Tesla model 3 that I fucking love. It’s a great car. Yes, Elon sucks and I now feel like a bit of a chud driving it around, but objectively it is a good vehicle by any measure.

"Good vehicle" is always subjective. It's always going to be an opinion and will always have people who disagree.

Reliable ✔️ Fast ✔️ Cheap to own ✔️ Convenient ✔️

The only thing I’ve done is put new tires on it when necessary. By any measure that’s a good car.

Don't feel bad. If you drove another car you'd still be a chud according to the fuckcars guys.
