Like any normal human being I hate the car dealer experience. I applauded Tesla for finding a way to remove this part of the car buying experience.
Now three months into my Tesla buying experience I am not sure which one I prefer. A DS who does not pick up the phone or reply to e-mails and Tesla constantly changing the delivery date and delivering cars to people who ordered months after you makes me long for the horrible car dealer experience. It is horrible but at least there is an end in site. They at worst can keep you for four of five hours but after that you drive out with a car, you get a shower and start enjoying your new vehicle.
I know I am going to forget about all of this once I have my fantastic new car but that does not make the current experience any easier. It looks like I have at least another two months before I will have my car but who knows. This is Tesla. It could be another year, it could be next week. Apparently it is impossible to predict.
How can Ellon stand behind this process?
