        i don’t think a lot of people are driving a tesla because they ant to give money to the musk. i also don’t think that guy had a lot to do with

        • the software
        • the build quality
        • the design of the car

        other than ‘i want that’ or ‘looks good to me’

    • This. I’ve actually had people come up to me and go hurr durr fuck your Tesla. I usually ask them who the CEO of their car make is and they never know.

      The group think is horrifying

        Somebody who isn’t a giant asshat loudly trying to manipulate the populace’s political opinions.

        Otherwise they would know. Being famous isn’t always a good thing.

        Now if you asked who were the lead engineers/designers for said vehicles it would mean more about the vehicle itself (but most everyone wouldn’t have looked them up or found their names)
