I don’t care one iota about his personality and quirkiness. Although I think basically he is kind of an a-hole
But you have not been doing your due diligence if you think the Teslas are very good. I’ve been following in a number of different information venues the car company for some time. The quality problems are quite extensive and there is plenty of customer dissatisfaction. Horrendously expensive replacement parts that don’t fit, ridiculously long service times, and quite a bit more than that.
I don't need to do due diligence. I don't like electrics and the bashing of gasoline-powered vehicles. Electrics have been around for over a century and still not ready for prime-time. While gasoline delivers more bang for the buck and is a proven technology. All I said, is that the Teslas appear to be better than what the other car-makers are putting into production. There is huge dissatisfaction with the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf, etc., far beyond any for the Tesla. The Volt is a disaster, and sucks up lots of government handouts. If you check reports on the Tesla from a technical standpoint, you'll see that it has superior electronics integration and lower build costs than the Volt or other electrics. All of what Musk is doing is not entirely bad, he's being blamed for everything in a similar way that Trump is blamed for everything. I don't care about Musk and I don't like him, and yes he is kind of an a-hole. An a-hole genius, though.
