From 2 weeks ago:

Model 3 tops Consumer Reports Owner Satisfaction

Today:

Tesla Model 3 no longer recommended by Consumer Reports.

Which is it?

Owners can be happy with a quirky car that isn't particularly reliable.

Jeep Wrangler consistently scores high in owner satisfaction, but no one ever would recommend buying one.

Two totally different statements.

A coworker bought one. He seems to like it but will admit some QC issues. Also he financed it with his bank and Tesla was a PITA to work with. The delivery company jacked up the underside of the front bumper and he has to send it to a service center for repair.

It's like the story from the 80's about the guy trading in his Grand Wagoneer. He asked the salesmen, "did you fix the issues with the windows leaking". No. "did you fix the issues with the power door locks". No. "did you fix the vapor/lock issue on the engine". No.

"Ok...I guess I'll buy the black one."

If you actually read the article it is very easy to realize what you should think

I'm not sure about Consumer Reports but I have several friends who have purchased Tesla and say they will never go back.

I'm strongly considering pulling the trigger on a new S P100D

you are spending a shite ton of money to save some minor fuel/maintenance cost.

You can't put a price tag on enjoying the smell of your own farts.

Darn it! I’m pulling for Tesla. We need an American company to make superior cars again!
