[quote=XBoxBoy][quote=Coronita][quote=XBoxBoy]I’m going to guess that this will be too expensive for our cheapskate Scaredy, but what about the Rivian SUV:
I heard the space and reliability isn’t that great.[/quote]
Meh, the jealous ramblings of Tesla owners who now regret funding Musk’s take over of Twitter.[/quote]
Lol, I never bought a Tesla for me or my mom.
My friend was complaining about small fit and finish things, like the tailgate stuck and not opening, a minor chirp or squeak coming from the front suspension. And annoyed by a recall i think on a steering fasterner. And he was also complaining about the interior space, saying that it wasn’t as roomy as he was expecting for a truck. Then again, he’s the type of person that would be complaining about Tesla or anything else he got. First world problem ya know.
The way I looked at it is most electric cars are a generation 1 product, so there is going to be issues that come up and room for improvement, and as an earlier adopter, you’ll need to tolerate some minor inconvenience as they sort through it. That applies to all EV cars, with the exception of the Tesla, the Bolt, and the Leaf, which all had a jumpstart and a product that’s been tested by users a lot longer.
I’m not buying a Tesla product, even though they are good products. I’m holding on as long as I can for better options.
I do like the i4 M50, eTron, Taycan, and the Lucid Air has an amazing interior and specs. The only issue is I don’t trust BMW and Audi, buying an electric Porsche seems so wrong at so many different levels, and the Lucid Air is a bit out of my price range.
So I’m stuck with my ICE vehicles until a 5 of them die, or California bans them, lol.
