From what I've seen there are quite a lot of Tesla drivers in major southern suburbs.

Southern suburbs tend to be fairly conservative. Maybe not quite as Trump loving as rural areas. But conservative nonetheless and likely not turned off by Elon's recent emergence as a right wing political figure.

Also, if you read enough /r/elonmusk you'll see that a lot of people have bought into Elon's schtick that he's actually just a centrist (apparently centrists love DeSantis)

Yeah, Emissions reductions will come from lighter cars, not steel cars weighed down with enough battery for ludicrous mode.

Also emissions reductions doesn’t come from selling more private vehicles.

There is a heavy mix of liberal and conservatives in the south. Classic big city vs everyone else dynamic.

Had a group of BLM protestors positing live on twitter how they where coming up to where I live to burn down neighborhoods.

I’m surrounded by gun fanatics. If police hadn’t blocked mass transit and highways it would have been a blood bath.
