First I heard of it but it makes sense: like you said: "I rather they spend money on car production and development than kissing customer ass like luxury brands otherwise do (Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, to some extent Daimler, BMW, Audi, and GM (Cadillac) and Ford (Lincoln). Tesla customers understand they are valued because they are inherently smarter than the general population.". (We'll this wasn't said but it's what I understood).
Post below point in case everyone: this is how people who went to stand in line feel.
Quote: "Personally, I am happy that by kissing your ass they can encourage more intelligent purchases like yours, something the petroleum combustion engine industry is not doing, so pucker up" End quote!
The statement from a Tesla client who read his comment and was asked to opine:
My 2¢’s
Gentlemen, so few companies ever indicate that they give a damn about your contribution of hard earned cash, support or effort on behalf of the existence of their brand or the global ideal to change the norm from ordinary to extraordinary service! Tell me this, when did you last get a genuine thank you from any company for your faith in a product you have never experienced, sampled or tested?
So why not bask in being appreciated by a company genuinely attempting to show appreciation for your faith and supporting the Tesla brand? Is it not Elon’ stated ethos to change the world? So let him change it. I for one have never seen this much attention to their consumer by any manufacturer is support of their consumer clients in over 50 years in product launch analyses or journalism!
So please support Tesla, any effort to shake up the consumer industry or show appreciation to a client for their custom should be appreciated, this is a good thing nothing to criticize here, you are pioneers, it’s a new experience so revel in it and be grateful you are at the tip of the spear in changing the worlds atmosphere by your choice of transportation!
Gentlemen, In the final analyses we all benefit, we have only one space ship with enough mass to hold all the earths population’s on which we may survive the self-inflicted wounds we continue to inflict on our planet:
Space Ship
Earth!
Ship Size:
M⊕
= (5.9722±0.0006)×1024 kilograms
Logic to save it:
Our species need clean air to survive!
Logic of Tesla:
Without air there is no life, electric cars contribute to clean air!
We all occupy spaces wishing its atmosphere and we all need to
breathe, your order of a Tesla indicated that you are intelligent enough to understand the correlation that destroying the planet with
Carbon dioxide (
chemical formula CO2) is in nobody’s interest.
All recipients of the Tesla gift should consider all intelligent sentient beings living on this "
space-ship" planet thank you for your purchase and vote for a sustainable future! Therefore, you should accept the Tesla notification as a token and demonstration that they respect, value and appreciate your contribution for us all to live on a sustainable planet! That is what I believe the message Tesla sent to you personified in their small gift and token of appreciation, so chin-up pioneers!
Now lets consider
our extra terrestrial activities off planet on our journey to Mars after we have saved our own planet "
space-ship" earth!
Disclosure:
I am not yet a Tesla Shareholder or Owner.
I am however a supporter of sustainable transportation and Independent media.
Footnote:
I am however a supporter of sustainable transportation and Independent media, a reporter who interviewed Tesla customers braving extremities standing in line during inclement London weather waiting to place their order for Model III, should they not welcome or receive a letter of appreciation?
