My Model 3 got totaled in a crash last year. I did debate whether I should give Elon Musk more money, so I looked at what the competition was offering.

Competing cars were often more expensive for worse specs, did not have access to Superchargers and made decisions that were less efficient (for example, most did not have heat pumps and had weak regenerative braking so as not to be too “weird” for gas car users).

So I bought another Tesla.

Had the exact same experience. One of the car dealerships told me that I still have to get a 6 month "service" where they move around battery packs (why?). And secondly, I remembered how I hated talking to car salesmen.
