    Personally I was shopping Tesla Model Y vs Chevy Blazer. At a glance, this seems to fall right in with what you’re saying but the reality was very different.

    • Tesla started off with an advantage by actually being available
    • even when Blazer was released, as a new model, it had much worse quality issues, very little availability, and huge markups
    • Tesla was a mature model, with no quality issues
    • Tesla was much less expensive
    • Tesla was rated 100 miles more range
    • Tesla is much more efficient
    • Tesla has an outstanding charging network
    • Tesla has a much easier purchasing process, with fewer middlemen to scam profits
    • Tesla software and automation is on a whole different level

    The decision really wasn’t close

      Hey, I’m happy you’re happy. But Tesla absolutely still has quality control issues.
