I, for one, definitely won’t be buying another Tesla as long as Naziboy Musk has anything to do with the company.

      Are you seriously not reading the post? 1 million miles cost them more than double the cost of the car to fix shit. A 1 million mile Tesla with batteries and motors replaced can’t be compared to a 50 year old Volvo still running the same engine it was paired with. If you replace everything on the car other than the vin, is it even the same car? That Volvo is worth more than it ever was new. That will never be true of a Tesla. #s matching. If you have an infinite amount of money, you could get a yugo to do over 1 million miles.

        Buddy, no engine goes for one million miles. Cylinders fail and engines get replaced. You seem to have some idealistic example in your head that every gas car can go for a million miles with “proper maintenance”. Not everybody has some old Volvo which has bucked the trend and lasted forever. Please, be honest with yourself.

        Electric car batteries go for 200k miles with proper care, the same as your average gas car. So stop it with your fear-mongering bullshit.

          Yeah, million mile cars are rare, obviously. But to claim it’s reliable when you have to replace that much shit to get there is nonsense. It’s well known that they have issues making them unusable and cost ineffective in the long run.

          I’m absolutely for effective EVs but I’m not going to suck the dick of a company that does so poorly, while sucking on the government teat and act like that’s a company we need. We don’t need 8,000 lb vehicles that’ll do 0-60 in 3 seconds.
