Tesla owners are reacting with mixed emotions to Elon Musk's controversial salute at Donald Trump's inauguration. Some are vowing to never purchase another Tesla product again, while others maintain that their love for the car is separate from their views on Musk.
Tesla Owners Are Getting Real About What They Plan To Do With Their Cars After Elon Musk 's Salute At Trump's Inauguration , And It's A Mixed Bag. 'I’m ending my lease two months early. When the Tesla rep asked why I’m not considering another Tesla , I said I’m sick of being associated with Elon.
' Undoubtedly the most controversial person in Trump's cabinet, his supposed'awkward gesture' (you know, the one that looked eerily similar to) has been subject to much argument between the'anti-woke' crowd who believe it was intended as a show of appreciation to the American people, and those who've observed that the richest man on Earth has a pattern of supporting the far-right. buying his excuse, except for Tesla loyalists and those who are already blinded by his billion-dollar status regardless of any product he produces, as well as theThe responses were relatively divided. Some regretted their purchase, vowing to never support another Elon Musk-backed product again. Others felt as though their love and appreciation for their Tesla products is completely separate from their views on Elon. Here's what Tesla owners had to say: 'I bought my Tesla in 2021, I f*cking hate Elon Musk and I'll never support Tesla again. I love my Tesla but I will be discussing it with my wife tonight if we should sell or keep it. I would have never bought a Tesla had I known Musk was such a filthy f*cking pile of sh*t.' 'I bought mine before Musk went totally off the rails, and I regret the purchase. However, depreciation is a real thing, and I don't have the financial freedom to take a huge loss selling my vehicle. Instead, I simply won't give Tesla any more money going forward, and my next vehicle upgrade will probably come sooner than it may have otherwise.' 'I own a Tesla — bought it five years ago, won't be buying another one. If I sell it, someone else buys it, drives it, and nothing else really changes except I now have to go through the pain in the ass of buying another car.' 'Will I be buying another Tesla, a SolarWall, StarLink or anything else from one of his companies? Nope. Got fooled once and that's enough for me.' 'I didn’t buy a Tesla because I like Elon and I'm not gonna sell it just because he's a Nazi. Look at how many MF's still own Volkswagens.' 'I've been embarrassed to drive a Tesla for months. I'm in the process of getting a new car. I cannot support this f*cking c*nt.' 'Got rid of my Tesla right before the new year. Paid around $3500 to cancel my lease. I didn’t want to deal with an electric car in Canadian January and February. Also, did not want to be associated with the Musk.' 'I’m ending my lease two months early. When the Tesla rep asked why I’m not considering another Tesla, I said I’m sick of being associated with Elon.' 'I didn’t buy my vehicle because of that idiot. I bought it because at the time it was the only decent option with self-driving and safety features that made me comfortable for my wife, who had brain cancer, to drive. The irony is that people are now so hostile on the road towards Teslas that the safety features kinda cancel out. Luckily she works overnights and just uses it to go back and forth with few people on the road.' 'Bought my Tesla in 2020, so around the time he began to go off the rails. With the way he’s been behaving, I’m going to try to trade in my Tesla for an electric SUV, probably from Honda or elsewhere. Can’t support what he’s been doing. No more Teslas for me.' 'I was such a fan of Elon when he first started Tesla. I really thought, 'Here is a really smart guy who's going to save the world from climate change and get rich doing it. More power to him!' I bought my car three years ago, and I still love it, but man he has shown his true colors and I’m so disgusted. But I bought my car with long-term ownership in mind, and their insurance rates are drastically cheaper for me. I try to spend my money with companies that have good/not MAGA corporate leadership, but I’m already invested in this car so I'm gonna ride it until it’s done. Next car might be a Hyundai or Rivian, maybe even GM.' 'Today’s salute doesn’t change anything, because it doesn’t tell us anything we don’t already know about Elon. I’ve been wanting to get rid of my 2013 Tesla Model S for years, ever since his 'pedo guy' comments. Which is when I sold all my Tesla stock. Missed out on a LOT of money because of that, but had to do it, as it was clear the guy was not who I thought he was.' 'It’s tough, though — as a car, it’s great. Does everything I need it to do. I’ve gotten everything on it that broke (which was a lot, but as an early adopter I expected it) fixed. But boy, having anything that’s associated with Musk is, frankly, gross. But we’re talking about many tens of thousands of dollars, and the fact is, the Model S is still (for me) an excellent ca
