You’re bitching so much about your TESLA and the company at-large that your complaints thus far have far outweighed your stated likes. It was a logical deduction on my part.
I really hate to get involved in this, but this is so egregiously wrong that I just had to say something...
If you look back on sleepydoc's posts, you'll find that they are extremely well balanced; he calls Tesla out on the things they need to improve, as well as the things they have gotten right. A quick read-through of his post history will show this.
The problem with Tesla (and especially Elon, the man himself) is that people tend to become completely polarized one way or the other; they either become complete cheer leaders or vapid haters, neither of which serve to help the company thrive.
Calling out Tesla's (and again, Elon's) mistakes are a completely valid way to help the company. They need to know the areas they need to improve in, and as customers and share holders, we are in the perfect position to bring these areas to their attention.
I'm as big of a Tesla fan as you can get. But I don't hesitate to call Elon/Tesla out on the things that they need to improve. I WANT Tesla/Elon to succeed. But they aren't going to if things like quality control, customer service, etc. aren't addressed.
No one gets everything right all the time. And now, with every automaker squarely setting Tesla in their sights, it is time for Tesla/Elon to get as much right as possible. Elon DOES listen to what his customer base and share holders say. That's one thing they get right. It is our responsibility to make sure we feed him with the information he needs to be as successful as possible when the competition really takes hold.
Yes, sleepydoc is an FSD beta tester, and has provided a lot of very valuable feedback as such. Again, read through his post history.
Gents, we need to stop being cheer leaders and haters. If you truly care about Tesla, then help them out as much as you can. Call them on their mistakes. Let them know about problems that need to be addressed. Don't just sit there and take a "this is fine" attitude.
The BEV market is set to absolutely catch fire. The driving force behind this revolution is Elon and Tesla. But such a huge market is going to get the attention of every car maker on earth... in fact, it already has. Yes, Tesla has a huge lead. Yet big auto has the funds to throw so much cash at this that they can come from behind quickly, as evidenced by how far some makes have caught up in such a short time. Mercedes' AP software comes to mind, as well as other Chinese manufacturers of pure BEV's that have filed to sell their products here.
If Tesla hopes to truly be successful when the competition hits, they need to be doing as much right as possible. Let's help them get there.
