Comment on Tesla Slumps Below 50% Share of California's Electric Car Market
poopkins@lemmy.world 2 months agoAre you suggesting that full self driving was fully implemented by 2019? Because it’s 2025 and it’s still not ready. How have I failed at math?

But if the scam was already running for three years, then it seems all the more sensible not to trust this person, no? How is it better that people are still falling for his lies after a decade?

I guess I see what you’re saying about not trusting Elon Musk because he had promised something that thus far had not been delivered. And you’re right, we didn’t trust him and didn’t purchase the option. But we thought the car was still okay. I still like the car, for the most part. Does that make sense? The car and the full self driving option were two separate purchases, one of which we did not make.

I understand your rationale, that makes sense.
Perhaps my priority is different, as I don’t make a habit of making investments with companies that have well documented track records of misleading and lying to customers. I didn’t buy a Tesla then, and I wouldn’t now, and the only thing that has changed is the public perception. That, for me, is secondary to the trustworthiness of the company.
