Not poking at you
@wtlloyd, just using your comment to add on.
One of the brilliant things about Elon and Tesla (IMHO) is that instead of investing time in trying to tell or persuade people of what they should want, or what is adequate for their needs, he meets people where they're at and supplies products that they want.
You want a big pickup truck - here comes Cybertruck. Whether other people think you need it or not, whether it's use is ~99% on paved roads, too and from an office building, here comes an option for you.
You want a big luxury SUV / crossover - here's Model X. Whether you ever put 3+ people in it at a time (our Model X is mostly single person - me - and is sometimes me with 1 or 2 cats, and rarely 2 people), and whether you ever use it to carry kids around (we don't).
You want ridiculous performance - we've got variations on that (for a price!) on every model we sell, whether anybody actually needs that ridiculous performance or not.
The cool thing about driving electric is that me and my Model X is still more efficient at converting energy into motion than approximately every other vehicle I see on the road. You need many people in a gas burning vehicle and/or a different Tesla to be more efficient (89 mpge, there are a few exceptions in other electric vehicles).
It's a lot easier to provide people options that meet their needs as they define them, than it is to tell / persuade people to change what they think that they need.
