"it doesnt really bother me" (probably does if they worded it like that)
"dont drive 85mph" and your range will improve
"supercharging is only for those who dont have level 2 charging" "30 minutes is not a long wait for fill up"
"you shouldnt want to turn of stability or traciton control or seat belt, it should be permanently on or you would crash"
"updates are great, i got a christmas light show its amazing"
"That was fixed with the new model"
"i dont mind no stalks, it doesnt really bother me anymore"
"well its not a camry, its a tesla"
"brakes are never an issue, i use regen it doesnt need good brakes"
"we dont need a key fob, we use our phone" Great, if it worked as good a key fob (never does, people dont talk about this)

Hey nothing wrong with speaking the truth. Only honest feedback can yield improvements. I hear you because I had an opportunity to drive a model 3 for a week as a rental last year. And HONESTLY, I hated it lol. If I had a choice, I’d rather have a Camry. That being said, you have to accept the reality that Tesla is not really a car manufacturer it’s a technology company. Yes they are seem to be the pioneer in tje electrical automobile industry, but Electric motor and self driving technology weren’t new and not something the traditional car manufacturers weren’t working on already. A well rounded car isn’t just about how fast it runs, people don’t buy cars to race, well a few do, people buy them for daily transportation. So drivability, safety, comfortability, technology, user friendliness, and aesthetics etc are all important elements most buyers would value just as much or more than the performance. This is where I see the obvious gap between Tesla and traditional car manufacturers. Elon is an extremely smart businessman who’s not afraid of taking risks, he’s certainly achieved to dominate the market by mass producing their value engineered entry level models. Hence those appear to be exceptionally great value. But the attributes that most modern cars equipped as standards are highly lacking and are very apparent to those above average drivers who care and pay attention to details of car making industry other than the brand name and appearance (trend).
