Yup, I hope you're all right. Keep in mind, I'm not hating on Tesla, just speculating as to how things will pan out. The store experience is great, the ordering experience as well. I think the ranger experience, if not too costly, will also push Tesla above the average dealership experience -- though with service centers far in between at the moment, if you opt to drop off instead, it could be another story. From the Roadster folks, it sounds like the "service center" experience, so far, has been better than traditional dealers, but will this scale? Will Tesla offer a service like Fisker where a flatbed comes for your car to take it to the nearest "dealer" (though, not sure what brand damage the image of my Tesla being flat-bedded out of the neighborhood once or twice a year will do).
Lastly, while these are all good things to consider, and more related to the topic of the thread, my original post was more about the car experience. What will the quirks be? Will I enjoy driving it like an Audi or BMW, or, like smoothoperator opines, will it drive like a sedate appliance? If the latter, that could push me away from Tesla, especially if others are doing EVs as well.
