Even the Tesla Cybertruck's Brake Lights Don't Make Sense::Brake lights shouldn't be confusing, but Tesla's determined to be different with the Cybertruck, for better or worse.

Which really sucks because when you do the math for range and efficiency honestly nothing else really approaches the Tesla still. The closest is Hyundai with their iconic series but as aging Wheels did a video on recently the charging situation for non Tesla cars is just abysmal at the moment most Chargers are broken, derated, or just otherwise somehow not easily functional whereas the Tesla charging stations rarely have issues

They really puts a wet towel on my desire to own an electric vehicle

yeah they're still capable cars if you can get over the terrible QA off the line. but like it or not, buying a Tesla these days is almost like making a political statement. it's just way more annoying to own one these days than something that's more low profile
