    Besides not wanting to buy a product from Musk buying a Tesla simply isn’t an option.

    On the newest Model 3 they removed the stalks, I don’t want to press a button on a steering wheel to use the blinker (Doing that in a roundabout sounds like a nightmare).

    Besides that Musk seems to think he can do whatever he wants with OTA updates. I wouldn’t want to buy a car that might have some function changed or disabled the next time I’m using it.

    Plenty of other manufacturers at this point to choose from.

      seems to think he can do whatever he wants with OTA updates.

      Maybe, and face lawsuits left and right. So far the effect of this has been overwhelmingly positive. This is the first car I’ve had where bug fixes might actually happen, where I have gotten new feature after I bought it, where (some) recalls just happen without any effort from me.

      1. Did you try it? Some people seem to like it. I dunno, haven’t tried it
      2. That’s only on new model 3 since last fall. Other models don’t do that, nor do older ones

        I already can’t hit the song selection forward/backward button consistently while the wheel is turned. Especially in a roundabout where I always indicate on exit. I don’t have to try it, steering wheel buttons for driving functions fucking suck.
