NoxObscuras 11/20/22 1:58:10 PM #8:	Because for a while they had very little competition, as far as full electric vehicles went. It was either them, or the Nissan Leaf, IIRC. But yeah, I think most of the Tesla designs are ugly. The Model S is the only one that looks decent. They have a lot more competition now though, so I expect to see less and less of them as other electric vehicles gain popularity. --- PSN - NoxObscuras Z490 \| i9-10900K \| EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra \| 32GB DDR4 3600 \| 4TB SSD <cite>NoxObscuras posted [p:969567708] in why do peo...

CableZL 11/21/22 11:20:48 AM #18:	Most of Tesla's recalls are software related and are fixed through over the air software updates. There have been some physical recalls, though. For the one physical issue I've had for my car they came out to my house to check to see if mine was actually affected. It was something about the hood latch, but they said mine wasn't affected by the problem. There are also Tesla-certified service centers that can work on Teslas, too. --- https://i.imgtc.com/d9Fc4Qq.gif https://i.imgtc.com/BKHTxYq.gif https://i.imgtc.com/vYYIuDx.jpg <cite>CableZL posted [p:969588776] in why do peo...
