I was the biggest tesla elon fan I know. I overlooked all the quality flaws with my model 3.
Elon started to lose me when he started pumping climate roasting crpytocurrency. How can you claim climate change is the biggest threat we face, then hype a new currency that makes climate change worse?
Then he started saying we should let the people who just attempted a coup to end democracy back on twitter and I started really getting pissed.
Then he tweeted that democrats are the party that has gone insane, not the party that has denied climate change for 40 years, became a con man's cult, and tried to overthrow democracy.
That's when I knew I was done with elon and tesla. Sold most my stock and I wont buy another tesla. I've gone from recommending them to everyone to warning everyone away.
My current service center visit (my 12th ish in 3 years) made me sure I've made the right choice. They're swamped with repairs due to their low quality and it takes days to get anything done. If you can't get to my car for several days, why are you telling me to bring it in now and be without a car for more days than I need to? They no longer provide loaners, dont even provide rental credits, and uber credits are all you get. Despite elon once pledging "every service center visit will get a P100D loaner" It was supposed to be done 4 days ago and I've heard nothing. There's no way to even check on the status of my car. The app wont let me message them. The phone line recording says "use the app". It's pathetic.
I never knew I'd go from a lover to a hater so fast.
I still have SOME stock, which I'll get rid of if it rebounds. But I'm not sure that will happen. TSLA's previous stock highs were achieved with the support of some very liberal investors who thought they were investing in a better tomorrow. Now that we know he's a supporter of the climate change denier party, he's lost a lot of those investors for good.
