      They’re cars like any other. Some problems and some good shit. At the end of the day they built a car with a reliable powertrain and made it perform well and they still are the most efficient with range. You can see the thought they put into making it good at being an electric car. They also understand the need of a reliable charging network.

      On the flip side they have poor build quality are not very reliable overall. Their reliance on touch screen is a matter of preference. I think they go overboard with it and would prefer more hard control, but atleast the software is intuitive and responsive.

      Elon is an asshat, but Tesla, as a car company, I wouldn’t call rubbish. Their cars have pros and cons, like any other, and one must admit that they have done quite a lot to move the industry towards electrification.
