New BMW’s are leased and BMWs are built to last up to the warranty period.

This. When car shopping, research everything and everywhere.
Consumer Reports is generally great, they just prioritize different things than most car enthusiasts do is all. Still very useful though.
They’re awesome, get one. I love mine to bits. Not literally to bits though because it is extremely reliable.
Give in. You’ll love it.

This plan relies on the average Tesla buyer being a blindly brand loyal idiot who just wants to be able to say they drive a Tesla for their social status and don’t actually care about having the best car.
Yeah, I agree. I’m not sure what I’m going to do about it in the long term, but for now it’s pretty reflective so it does my minimal lighting situation a lot of favors.
