I have a new Prius and my parents have a Tesla. I am very happy with my Prius but my dad is always trying to make me feel like I should have bought a Tesla and I made the wrong choice. Now he’s scared to visit me in the city because someone might scratch a swastika in his car. So who made the wrong choice again?
Even without all of that you are better off getting the Prius. It means you don’t have to deal with the utter nightmare that is Tesla customer support, It’s always worth thinking about what happens when something inevitably goes wrong.
Plus of course you can always take the Prius to a generic mechanic. But they never have pants for Tesla’s I don’t think Tesla let them out. They are like Apple in that respect.
Rode in a Prius 5 deep to a wedding reception and was kind of surprised by how much room there was inside ( first gen, I was one of 3 in the back) and the torque was impressive as well.
I still see a lot of them on the road , so the build quality is probably superior to tesla junk
I don’t think customers are responsible for the behavior of a demented CEO. That’s meme-driven thinking that can’t process the world unless it’s simplified to GoodGuys vs BadGuys.
Model 3, looks just generic, the 2023 facelift looks less bad.
Model Y just looks terrible, the facelift makes it even worse.
Model X, just what the fuck? Its like is a long car crashed into s wall in a world with cartoon physics, squishing it.
All Teslas I have seen also have two terrible things in common.
The headlights constantly blind oncomming drivers.
The indicator are WAY too subtle next to the headlights, here in Sweden we have a law that require headlights to be on then the car is on, this means that when I see an oncomming Tesla at a crossing I have to look straight at the headlights and try to notice a slight shift in the white balance, while being blinded at night.
I got a used model 3 after we found out he was an asshole but before we knew he was a nazi. I think the 3 looks great, even a little better than the S imo. The X is ridiculous. The only Tesla that’s incompatible with a roof rack is an SUV? What a joke.

Yeah. One of the first things I did was disable the auto high beams.

They all look almost exactly the same. The S I’m more familiar with because it’s been around longer and is a noticeably longer car than the other two, but I’m not sure I could even tell the 3 and the Y apart!

I mean listen, show me a good auto manufacturer that hasn’t been controlled by a fascist government?
The Aussie auto industry when it was still going made some good stuff!
Well, as of Jan 2025 that eliminates all American car brands.
As of years before World War 2, Henry Ford was a fucking nazi.
He was indeed. I was referring to all the others.
“good” already did 😉
Yeah there are some good car parts made here, but then the get installed in the worst designs and build quality since 1979s Britain.
Yep, (and even if not for him we did have Andrew Jackson once) German, Japanese, and south Korean are out too. Italy is doubly eliminated.
are we counting pre-1988 south korea
Yes
The Texas factory is nearly twice as big as the CA one, is where the Cybertruck is made, and is the HQ of Tesla ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The new prius looks really nice. I sat in one recently and the headroom isn’t great, but I’m 6’4" and I was sitting in the back.

The Prius V is spacious AF. Hopefully they make a new version of that as well.
I have seen Priuses with 700.000 km on their odometer for sale. Tesla drivers are lucky if they can reach 200.000.

The new Prius actually looks good!
The only Tesla that looks decent is the Model S.

Teslas genuinely looks like they were designed by a committee of engineers who looked up google images of sedans 5 minutes before the meeting.

The Y looks like a pregnant 3, the X looks like a pregnant, overweight S.
