I think Electric cars have their place in society just like Trucks and golf carts do.

       I think electric cars are the way of the future, for better or worse,
       due to governmental regulation. I hate my cars being demonized by these
       arrogant "holier than thou" hypocrites, personally, although at some
       point I do plan to get an electric car just to get used to it. I think
       as commuter cars for going to work they are great and that is about it.
       I still recall about a year ago the pissed off looks a Tesla driving
       dude was giving me when my now dead truck was idling nicely with the
       exhaust perfectly placed near his open window at a stoplight. The V8
       being a straight pipe the noise was an added factor for Konrad enjoying
       himself being a total ass :)

         A  A Yes, I see that often now, there's a proliferation of Tesla's
         here in
         A  A Reno with the Gigafactory close by.
         A  A I drove my first Tesla about a month ago in Montreal, rental
         cars were
         A  A in high demand, and all they had available was a Tesla 3. Once
         I
         A  A figured out the card (key) swipe to make it work it was easy. I
         have to
         A  A say that rush and pinning to the seat as you press the go pedal
         hard is
         A  A exhilarating, but (and it's a big butt) everything else was
         just
         A  A boring, there is literally nothing else to get excited about,
         it has no
         A  A soul, it gets you from A to B in a utilitarian there's an 'app
         for
         A  A that' kind of way. On the interaction side I found it annoying
         more
         A  A than anything (in a kind of nagging wife way) and I ended up
         navigating
         A  A using my iPhone for a more direct route.
         A  A So, to answer your question, I think it's more of a case of the
         only
         A  A pleasure one can derive from driving a Tesla is the
         instantaneous
         A  A torque away from the lights, after that the battery efficiency
         warning
         A  A light comes on and one is chastised into fictitiously saving
         the planet
         A  A once more.

         A  A Subject: [DeTomaso] Tesla Drivers???
         A  A So reading about Konrad's unfortunate experience, he mentioned
         A  A something about Tesla drivers. I have had multiple Tesla
         drivers
         A  A wanting to race me since I got my Pantera on the street. The
         first one
         A  A was interesting and I let him go, not wanting to race on the
         street.
         A  A The next few got annoying and I wanted nothing to do with that.
         I'll
         A  A enjoy my car the way I want to, thank you. Anyone else
         experienced this
         A  A sudden desire of Tesla owners to race you?
