Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Because I've test driven what's out there right now. Nothing comes close to my old Tesla and I'm not going to buy a new car from a different brand when used model 3 of the current models will be better value.
People genuinely are ignorant to how advanced the Tesla system is vs the competition. I'm very fortunate to live in dealership hotspot and I've driven plenty. Be it byd, kia, Hyundai, Volvo, polestar, mg etc. (Fun thing to do over weekend to kill an hour).
Tesla's from 2018 are genuinely better than competitors coming out right now. You add the better battery and heat pump from 2021 and your efficiency is basically as good as it gets. I've driven enough in my car to understand what makes for a good "range". It's all about that efficiency. The latest model 3 is a minor improvement, but still one I'll happily upgrade to in 5 years time or so when I get close to 170k miles.
But hey, that cybertruck! Or earlier models panel gaps! It's such useless noise bashing what is the best car anywhere near that price.
Maybe Merc's, lucid and Rivian have it beat, but they aren't available here or more than double the cost...
I hope it makes sense. I get outrage at Musk coming from valid places, but I'm not letting a twat ruin something for me. He has more money that god, me buying used car has next to no impact. So why bother?
