It is recognized by many from grade school to the aged. Each has their opinion about a Tesla and their owner. But it is a d*mn CAR … not a status or other symbol. Mine has a touch up scratch and rear door dimple. The interior has dog hair and shrubbery leaves. It is a fun working car and not some statement. Bob Wilson
agreed, same with prius. ironically, some think they are making a statement, and some perceive that they are making a statement. but that has been true long since cars were invented. i used to know a fella whose opening line was always, 'what are you driving'. and this was intended as a method to get you to ask him the same, because his passion for life was consumed with his latest and greatest.
