I may get an EV in 2022. I may even get a Tesla but the one thing keeping me away (outside of their laughable build quality and penny pinching lack of features) is being associated with Elon Musk fanboys. I have been a part of Ford forums and dealt with the blue oval lifers, Honda fanboys, Subaru fanboys, ect but I have never in 20+ years of being on numerous automobile forums seen anything like the Elon Musk fanboys. It's by far the most toxic of all automobile fandoms and tarnishes anything good the brand actually accomplishes. There's no reasoning with these people and some of them are so toxic they send death threats to owners of other EV's. They aren't enthusiasts, they are lunatics.
