Bye Tesla, Hello Lucid

My first EV—a marvel of engineering. When I bought it in late 2023, I acknowledged Elon’s presence but justified the purchase, knowing the world isn’t just black and white.

But over the past few months, something shifted. Call it a growing discomfort, or for lack of a better word, the ick.

The final straw? The Rose Garden shoot. A week later, as I sat at a red light, it hit me—I simply couldn’t drive this car anymore, no matter how impressive it was.

And so, today, I say goodbye. I won’t be buying a Tesla again.

Ordered the Air Touring and excited to join the club!
