I would buy an EV if I had adequate means to charge it and it otherwise met my needs. But I would not buy a Tesla vehicle, and not just because Elon Musk has made it clear to the general public that is a proto-fascist lickspittle and a general bullshit artist, which is something I was aware of long before his public “twitter battles” with random people, narcissistic insistence on putting himself in the middle of a cave rescue and lambasting an actual technical advisor by accusing him of being a pedophile, his pandemic health regulation shit-fits, his litigious SLAPP-suing of everyone who dares to publicly criticize him, and general assholery and claims of being the smartest guy in every room while he spastically gibbers jargon that he is incoherently parroting from what he has heard actual experts say.
Like @TrueCelt, I don’t trust either Tesla’s privacy or software reliability practices, know enough about the design and construction of Tesla vehicles to be very concerned with their long term durability and (especially) repairability, and consider many of their bait & switch practices with options and subscriptions to be shady as hell even compared to most automakers. On top of that, Tesla has a reputation of treating workers terribly, knowingly permitting campaigns harassment to occur in their facilities and using all means barely legal and otherwise to intimidate and suppress whistleblowers. I wouldn’t take a Tesla if you offered it to me for free.
