Elon has enough billions in space X, X, xAI and Boring. He will be fine
I appreciate musk, but no need to go out of way for him. A man who has 14+ kids with god knows how many women is no martyr

Cream of the crop when it comes to electric vehicles

I won’t lie. A buddy got a rivian, it’s better… but they both make good cars. They just aren’t practical, I will always buy gas over electric personally

Lots of teslas in south alabama, or lots more than one would think

I know a Republican nurse in L.A. that owns a Tesla as a second car. Works good for her as a commuter car. She doesn’t take long trips in it though.

I know a few who lease them.

He’ll make ten-fold when Starlink is 100%

It's worth it. We left Hughes net an run 2 houses with streaming TVs off one unit with the booster. Works great for us.
ETA - why the hell would someone downvote this?

I've taken the tesla on many, many long trips. Zero issues.

Maybe they don't agree with you?
I live in a mountain community in WNC that is heavily wooded. I bought a gen 3 starlink because it was going to take 2 months for the ISP to hook me up.
I never mounted it permanently because I knew I was getting fibre in a couple of months. I just set the starlink on the back deck (not ideal) but was surprised to get 85 down and 12 up speeds which was adequate for WFH and streaming.
Great product.

I have to turn my VPN off on my laptop because it makes it painfully slow. My best southern sky is probably 200 ft from the router. It's been a while since I researched it but I'm thinking they didn't like distances greater than 150 feet.

You can get a 3-5 year old model 3 with 50k-ish miles for $20k. It sure is tempting. I even have a place to park it that is covered but not combustible. Hmmm

Elon is sacrificing nothing.
He’s playing long ball in a massive game of power.
ETA: our fleet of vehicles are thirsty as frick

I would use one for a commuter since my Gen 1 Raptor gets 13mpg. But it's another vehicle to clog my garage and driveway and I don't want to spend 50K on a commuter.
But I wouldn't be opposed to owning one for the purpose of a work car.

I'm sure some have. I only know a few people with Teslas and they are definitely on the left.
in my neighborhood there are 4 i know of.
one owned by a rabid libertarian, one a typical republican, one a typical democrat, and one a rabid leftists.
my boss has one and he's pretty right leaning.
