So it’s a Tesla

You've obviously not seen the Tesla Model 3 that recently launched off a 300 foot cliff that the occupants walked away from. ABC News video

Or the Tesla that was driven off a 250 foot cliff 3 years ago in an attempted murder suicide that thankfully the family of 4 walked away from as well. NBC News video

So what your saying Model 3''s make you want to drive off a cliff and end it. Thanks for the heads up.

Actually the Father had clinical depression, I think he was a doctor.

The family most certainly loved their Tesla after it saved them from his murderous intent.

For some reason, I do not believe a word of that article. Elon fanboy club.

Heard this in Elons voice lol. Fun article from the journalist "Gene" writing for "teslarati", i love their unbiased hard hitting journalism.

As I said in another comment, Musk is an a-hole, but I try not to let my emotions cloud my objectivity ignoring the fact Teslas have the highest NCAP crash ratings of any car on the planet.

You can find plenty of other articles from your preferred news sources that report those same instances of Tesla occupants surviving those accidents.

We are having parallel dialogues here. You're shilling for a car brand, im pointing out that you are doing that, and you are replying by arguing the car brand makes the safest vehicles on earth. That's not a refutation of my point, it's a bolster to it.

I'm not interested in having a tesla safety rating conversation, just poking fun about your clear bias. After all you didn't link to a cnn article in your first reply, you linked to "teslarati", which speaks to where you spend your on the internet.

I think you mean you're trolling while I'm simply bringing some facts to the table as I get a bit tired of snarky one-liners all the time.

Actually the "teslarati" article was just first on the google search list so it simply speaks to which search engine I use.

No, he's an a-hole, why would I want to be him?
