They have a religious detachment from reality of "don't confuse me with the facts, my mind is made up".
It's somewhat pathetic that they will avoid Tesla at all costs while suffering with slow charging, frustrating road trips, uncomfortable seats, lack of OTA, etc., and try to puff up the features of a Bolt or Leaf as superior to the point of flagrant lying. Truly the definition of delusional.
On this note, I've recently had a crash course in all of the fear and doubt spread about Tesla on the energy side of the business.
I had never spent much time reading about solar, but after placing my Tesla Solar order last week I spent several days browsing forums around here and on Reddit. It's incredible just how many solar installers hang out on those threads, spreading as much negative information about Tesla Solar as possible.
Honest people come asking why Tesla is 20-50% cheaper than the competition in their area, and all the installers chime in with "helpful" advice like "never accept the cheapest quote for work" or "you get what you pay for." One guy on a recent thread couldn't believe the new solar prices, and went on a rant about how Tesla is engaging in "predatory pricing" to become some sort of evil mega-utility. Seriously what's the logical conclusion there?
Step 1. They help millions of people afford the means to generate their own clean, renewable energy for the next 30 years...
Step 2. ???
Step 3. Evil monopolistic profits?
