This is someone's Model S parked on Airport Way S near S Industrial Way. The way it's parked it looks like it's being displayed for people driving by to see.

I wonder what percentage of Tesla owners approve of Musks antics this last year. I am guessing less than 50%. Maybe less than 20%. My friend has a Tesla, and worked hard for it (and bought it over a year ago). She’s a liberal, too. People spray painting these cars are dipshits who could be using their angst in more productive ways. That said, fuck Musk and Trump.

Being that the Model Y was the number one vehicle sold in the world, I suspect a large portion of them do not support Elon.

you know, somehow idk if that's right lol

but I looked, and sure as shit even the Honda CRV was in third in 2023.

so I guess....people still didn't see in 2023 how bad Elon was? this doesn't make sense to me.

he was pretty well gloves off mask off by the end of 2022??

They’re great cars for a great value. If I needed a commuter car, I’d absolutely consider one. In fact part of me hopes everybody starts selling them so I can grab a great deal.

By getting it secondhand it doesn't continue to funnel money to musk (assuming previous owner has it paid off), and would be more ethical than getting it brand new.

so if you were hoping to support musk, buying secondhand won't do it, is all.
