Don't worry Tesla owners, this guy's better than you and all along knew that he should be buying hummers.

This smugness from basement dwellers is flat out embarassing.

"If you don't spend tens of thousands of dollars on a luxury car, you're a smug basement dweller."

Don't own a Tesla, probably never will, just recognize the cringey basement dweller behaviour of everyone in here gleefully pretending like Tesla's are any different just cause they don't like the owner now. It's a bunch of hater energy losers dunking on an easy target that's uncool now. Congrats guys, you did it, you felt superior to others today.

I'm not superior to anyone. I just don't insult people for not owning a car.

I wasn't, and don't own and never have owned a car. I was insulting them for being haters which was made apparent by their hater comments.

If you've never owned a car, maybe you don't know whether or not people are right to hate Teslas. Just a thought.

Not owning a car doesn't mean I don't drive / rent / carshare them, and since when is owning a car a requirement for determining whether or not Teslas are aesthetically pleasing? I have eyes and go outside.

You're 100% right but don't expect r/technology to accept it.

Swing and a miss, sparky. I’ve been driving electric for the last 7 years but have no interest in Tesla for a wide variety of reasons.

Also I literally told you why I don’t like them — there are only 4 of them and they all look the same; do you think maybe the fact that they’ve become so ubiquitous over the last few years and so samey could contribute to changed perceptions of them? What’s new in 2017 is old in 2023.

Just try and be a better person/contributor around here. Smarten up.

there are only 4 of them and they all look the same

Oh noooooo. Thanks for that single issue that's entirely subjective.

Meanwhile; they provide the best performance for the price, putting exotics 0-60 to shame. Have the best charging infrastructure. Get great range despite the recent hit pieces. And, for some subjective IMO goodness, are super fucking cool. I love the infotainmentcontrolwhatever way they handle things.

But no, they're just copy/paste pieces of shit. All hail anybody but Elon!

They’re fine cars, they need a refresh is all. You’re reading way too much into this. They’re not copy-paste, they’re ubiquitous and as exciting as a Honda Civic in terms of looks, to me at least. 0-60 time is fun, but so are physical buttons.

All hail anybody but Elon!

You know he’s never going to marry you though, right?

You know he’s never going to marry you though, right?

What? I thought you said this WASN'T r/technology?

The only person bringing up Elon Musk is you. The only person offended (apparently) on behalf of Elon Musk is you. Sort yourself out.

I couldn't give a fuck about Musk. He could die tomorrow and I'd say "Good for him." What I think is hilarious is the assumption by you and others in these comments that my drive to correct them stems from some love of the ugy.

Sort yourself out.

I couldn’t give a fuck about Musk.

Says the guy who a.) brings him up in a discussion that wasn’t about him and b.) doesn’t know where he is. Sure.

I see inferring from context isn't your strong suite.

“I don’t like the cars that much because they’re boring”

You infer —> “You don’t like Elon”

Oh please continue to teach me what I meant by what I said, oh master of inference.

Again, reading comprehension.... get some. My original "All hail anybody but Elon!" was aimed generally at the migrated r/technology chuds.
