Oddbean new post about login | logout the tesla is the best car money can buy, actually. it’s the safest among other incredible qualities like comfort… and, despite how you feel about the ceo, tesla is one of the greatest american companies to have ever exist.
No. Toyota & Lexus 4x4s are the best cars money can buy. Hands down.
we disagree. 🤗 but i urge you to test drive any or even all the teslas. you’ll love em.
Teslas haven’t been around long enough to know for sure what their true lifespan is. Wait until those massive battery packs need replacement. And as for EVs, I’ve driven plenty of others and my personal experience is that Teslas are trash compared to what the latest generations from more established manufacturers are coming out with.
non-hybrid EV tech is/was new to all the companies. and ive never heard of batteries needing replacement, but also, if “200,000+ miles of frequent track use and hard driving” for a tesla is not long-lasting enough, then maybe your bar is too high.
Still never getting a goddamn Tesla.
And here’s where Toyota SUVs re-enter the conversation. Hard to kill them in under 300k-400k miles if you’re trying. Admittedly, I’ve never driven a tesla. I’ve ridden in an S series and 3 series. Was impressed by the S series’ acceleration. But I’m not buying a battery powered vehicle so going further with test drives, etc. isn’t something I’m spending time on. People will always have their opinions on cars, based on personal preferences, priorities, and ideals. To each their own.
i wouldn’t be surprised if we see the teslas hit 750k miles on the same battery. definitely can not go wrong with the toyotas lasting a very very long while too. but that does cost soooooo much in gas! cars are fun. we get passionate about them, for sure. ✨🤗✨🧡✨🤙✨✌️✨
