I know of several people interested in EV that either chose some other maker for EV, or have not yet opted into buying at all, entirely because of Elon.
I’m the same way. I’m just glad I couldn’t afford a Tesla when I thought Elon was going to do good things for the world. Now that I can afford one, I’ll wait till someone else makes one that competes with it or he’s no longer a part of the company.
In the meantime, I’ve been looking in to converting something old and neat to an EV to put around town in. The conversions aren’t the greatest but you can do 200hp/tq and 100mile range for less than a crappy used car.
He sure has been a big disappointment. I admired and even respected him and what he was driving, but once his PR team decided to not exist any longer, I guess, his behavior was instantly and incredibly immature and off-putting.
I want to appreciate everything he has had his booger-hooks in for what they are (apart from Twitter), but I just can’t imagine supporting them until he simply isn’t in the picture at all.
You know how sometimes a movie is so terrible that it becomes good? I feel that way about Musk. He is so unbelievably stupid that it is honestly sort of amazing. He has all but destroyed Twitter and now he has dealt mortal strike to Tesla by opening endorsing fascists who hate electric cars. Simply amazing.
Yep model Y ticks my boxes but I’m probably not gonna change cars or go for one last petrol/hybrid because I feel really dirty at the idea of getting one…
