Their cars suck, quality-wise, so no wonder they want to avoid gov't regulation.

Tesla earned the worst score among the 32 major vehicle brands in J.D. Power's 2020 Initial Quality Study due to various problems reported by owners.

One can only hope that Musk builds better rockets than he does cars.

This is why I never look at Tesla as being a real car, it's just a play toy for rich people. Like back in the 60s every rich person wanted a Jaguar but they were horrible cars. They spent more time at the shop then they did on the road. But they looked good.

Tesla’s can remain still while in Drive, and go from 0-60 in four seconds. Which saved this driver from being shot dead by the homie.

Seems like something a student would use to cut down on the ramen consumption and not break the budget.
