“Sure, when you’re making two-grand-a-month payments or whatever, what are you gonna do, walk around admitting you’re driving a piece of crap?”

Same could be said for any luxury car but the Model S blows them all out of the water.

[When do we get liberated?]

Agreed. Its amazing what no union and an upstart capitalist can do. The tax credit sucks as a concept, but I cant hate the machine for the marketing.
I work for a multi billionaire and I can tell you he emphatically loves his. The car is a winner, can’t wait till Tesla outsells GM!

True up to a point: Ferrari.

I'm just not a fan of batteries, that's all.

Luxury car buyers are far more impressed by personal service than a quality piece of machinery, Tesla is great at kissing rich posteriors, but if your car “bricks” they call it an operator problem and offer to fix it for $40,000 ! Yes, that is what those batteries cost and they are not repairable.

Consumer reports : “Tesla Model S has more than its share of problems”

Search Consumer reports on their experience with this wondercar. Also research “Tesla bricking” .

They are rich boy toys, nothing else.
