The majority of all vehicle owners of any car type are not "car people," it's not unique to Teslas, nor is it because the majority of Tesla owners are "Techies" who you denigrate as idiots that only know what they read on the internet. It's because almost everyone buys a car just to get from point A to B.
Even 90% of Corvettes, Porsches, Ferraris, Camaros, M/AMG's, etc are bought by people that will never modify them, never track them, and just like them because they look fast and give you a little kick when you put your foot down 50% on the throttle getting on an entrance ramp.
The Model 3 isn't even sold into this market. It's a BMW 3 series competitor, so of course the "majority" of buyers aren't car people. You think Tesla could sell 1M cars a year if they only built cars for "Car people"?
Plus, "Techies" have been a huge boon for car culture. They designed Teslas. They made the internet, and without that, imagine how hard it would be for a company like MPP to find customers. And who would have bought Teslas from 2012-2018 when the cars were $100K and nobody was sure they would survive as a company? How's Rimac doing selling only performance electrics to car people?
The irony of posting "they don't understand much beyond the blurbs of tech specs on the internet that they read somewhere." on a Tesla forum on the internet that is discussing performance parts for your Tesla....
