I will never buy a Tesla car


I'll buy one if I can get it cheap to sell it for a big profit.

You and I then won't be able to buy tesla cars because they are already too expensive. The flagship 2020 Model S sedan is priced around 70,000$ and other models cost much more. Only the rich person can afford these branded cars. Even if Elon Musk haven't tweeted, i would still not have bought tesla.

[examplens]

this is all nonsense. I don't think a few Bitcoiners can make some damages to Elon and Tesla because will not buy his car. Personally, I have never even considered such a possibility, however, I have more confidence in a manufacturer that has been in the industry for a long time.

btw. Now we have speculation that China's ban Bitcoin & cryptocurrencies, and this caused a new downtrend. Does that mean you won’t buy anything made in China?
I mean, we must have the same standards for all. Right?

True, this reminds me of the lamborghini statement regarding their advertisements, which states that they don't do television ads as their target customers are those people who doesn't watch shows in the television.

Well, who'd be dumb enough to watch TV while driving 200 mph down a dirt road?

I wuld never buy Tesla car never, cause they are not good. They have poor quality, you can find a lot of videos of this car failure in youtube, for example video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJ1tofzX6Bk

How may people die each year in this shitty car cause of company issues with car? And now, when he does this with a crypt, I would never buy a single product from of Musk

His electro shis car make more polutions than any ICE car. If your think electric energy for BTC is not clean, and than of course is not clean also for his shity car. What wuld happen with battery for car after batterys life? probably nothing, and that battery creates pollution when it is produced, when you consume it, and when it dies, the battery will produce pollution

And one picture for Musk

[OgNasty]

I'm stupid enough, I guess.

You will receive no argument from me.  

People can say Teslas are powered by dirty energy.  I get that.  People can say Elon is a troll.  I get that.  People can say they don't like that Tesla has a monopoly on electric cars and want to buy elsewhere, or maybe they even have brand loyalty and want to purchase an electric Ford.  Who knows?  All I do know, is that you currently can not find a better electric car for retail purchase by a major manufacturer that is better than a Tesla.  I can use the word "better" broadly here because Tesla is so far ahead in every way that there is no need to go into any more detail.

Tesla already has batteries that are installed next to houses to capture energy from solar panels in the day for use at night.  Similarly, Tesla is building capacitors to store off peak energy from power stations to feed into the market in high demand, so EM is probably looking now to tap into solar arrays plus batteries to power bitcoin mining rigs to rival other mining farms powered by hydro or coal that are set up around the world.

It's surprising that people talk about the cars, but that's not my point. It doesn't matter that the cars are good or bad. My point is that Elon Musk has a big mouth, and that he uses it to play havoc with BTC. Some day he says he supports BTC, that he's a big fan, and merely a few weeks later, he says BTC is dangerous to the planet... As an old BTC investor, I can't accept this. Maybe Musk is rich enough not to care about BTC's price, but I do.

[Smartvirus]

All bitcoiners should blacklist Tesla cars or any product or service coming from a company owned by Mr.Musk.

It's not unlikely to have this sort of feeling about someone or a company that has resulted in some loss of profit in your trades or what your passionate and enthusiastic about. Its common and normal but, it doesn't mean much. Its a personal decision and not many would buy into that idea. Owning a Tesla if you can is actually being in line with the new world on renewable energy sources and creating an environmental more friendly source. Its the way the world is turning and your going to want to appreciate it some day. I ain't that cool with Musk  for being a reason to bitcoin's fall and relatively altcoins as well but, we must admit that he pointed out a fault and as such, we could build on that.

I'm just waiting for the OP or anyone else to outline what exactly mechanical or otherwise is actually wrong with Telsla's Electric cars?  (funny that everyone's talk of the owner of the company is probably off-topic, but I digress)

Are the brakes faulty?  Not enough miles to the kilowatt?  The seats aren't comfy?  The radio has too much squelch?  Come on @countryfree, tell us what's wrong with the car??

How is that off-topic if the OP literally says "no way I'm going to spend my money with the guy who's destroying my savings"?

The quality is average at best. I've had trim pieces rattle during a Model 3 test drive. Panel gaps are similar to a Mexico-made Nissan Versa. Doesn't look good on a 50-grand car. And one probably needs to be a millennial to buy a car without knobs for volume and climate control because I don't really understand the appeal of tapping on a tablet or trying to guess what magic words you need to say.

[Timelord2067]

... didn't read Timelord2067's post but felt the need to Troll anyway ...

Next you'll be saying:

"Hopefully that person (EM) will also suspend making their all electric cars until such time as the metals are mined out of the ground with "clean energy", similarly, transported to smelters, and then manufacturing plants via electric vehicles powered from "green energy" and the cars themselves automatically refuse to be recharged by electrons sourced from "dirty energy" sources."

(rolls eyes)

Right now TESLA is no longer accepting Bitcoin to buy their electric cars. Ordering new products like Cyber Truck will cost you Bitcoin upfront and I see on this forum a member has placed a deposit of more than 5 BTC and by March the amount for the car was just over 1.5 BTC.

Currently, electric cars are a global trend, but not every country supports electric charging stations, so gasoline-powered cars are always a good priority because gas stations are everywhere.

OP was pretty clear that the reason he won't be buying a Tesla has nothing to do with Teslas product, it's the actions of the founder and ceo he has a problem with.

I'm planning to buy a new car this summer. Not very sure of what I'm going to get, but I have no doubt about what I'm not going to get. I'm not going to get a Tesla. Never. Wouldn't even accept a test drive.

Hey, BTC's falling hard this week, and the guy who started the fall is Elon Musk, Tesla's manager. There's just no way I'm going to spend my money with the guy who's destroying my savings.

All bitcoiners should blacklist Tesla cars or any product or service coming from a company owned by Mr.Musk.

Haha there is one thing that I like about people it's that they take a lot of things personally which could ultimately hurt them at the end. You know instead of never buying Tesla Car a better option for taking Revenge might be to buy Tesla Car for cash and then sell it for BTC. Elon Musk is a confused creature. He himself once tweeted for his own company that Tesla shares look pretty high priced. First of all, I don't really think it would matter to him even if we all as a community swore never to buy Tesla because we are too small to give a significant hit to their revenues anyway. But yes a better thing you can do is to do this same thing on Twitter by tagging him or probably we can trend this. This might catch the attention of the Tesla PR Team.

Well, for the record, you said:

Anyone stupid enough to think there are better and/or less expensive vehicles than a Tesla or thinks other vehicles can do what theirs can, you are vastly uninformed, ignorant, and probably the type of person who is extremely jealous of others...

And it only takes a minute of research to find cars that are less expensive or better.

And then you went on about how awesome the Tesla Cyber Truck is...and once again, only a minute of research shows it's only just started production and won't be available till the end of this year, or later - meaning you were basically just repeating a Tesla pitch for their truck.

Research has shown that electric cars are better for the environment. They emit less greenhouse gases and air pollutants over their life than a petrol or diesel car. This is even after the production of the vehicle and the generation of the electricity required to fuel them is considered.

Hmmm is this one of the other's hate speech against musk, cause I'm thinking it is.

Plus tesla is not the only one offering electrically motored vehicles  

[countryfree]

I have the feeling that Mr Musk wants to rule BTC.
He gives conditions. I will accept BTC if... Sorry Sir, but if you support BTC, you put no condition to its use.

I guess its customers should do the same, and avoid buying an electric car if there's no green electricity available in their area.

What Musk says holds truth. It's a good thing to push miners for greener electric consumption. And if they do, it's better for all and mostly for the sustainability of bitcoin network.

And I'm planning to buy a tesla car within the next few years. When my petrol vehicle gets old and Tesla launches a cheap but high range hatchback.

I will never buy a Tesla car


I'll buy one if I can get it cheap to sell it for a big profit.

Not even for a profit.
A friend of mine has a Model x d100 or what ever it is and i went for long and short distance drives in the thing and no not for me.
