If the quality and customer service were there and musk was no longer there, I would very gladly buy one.

Elon already fired 10%+ of all employees, including the entirety of the Supercharger team.

I don't expect much quality or customer service moving forward.

Same. I'd love a model S if it was what it seemed and that raving douche wouldn't profit.

I mean I would love to get a used model 3 for like 20k if it wasn't for that fascist fucking pig.

I am worried about the long term viability of Teslas. Given their computers and software, I fear they will have the lifespan more akin to cellphones than to traditional vehicles.

That is my main concern with all EVs. I would also like just like a standard car but with an electric motor and none of the infotainment bullshit. I don't need it to connect to anything except the road and the charging stations.

Like how much money could it save by dropping all that BS? Gimme a couple motors, a fat battery, a way to connect my phone, electric windows and locks, physical controls, manual fucking doors, and maybe a couple green paint options FFS, and I'm good.
