Had to do a quick trip to Sydney today, and it reminded me again of how human life is all about status. Driving that Tesla is a wonder of the world. Supercar levels of performance, totally silent gigantic torque on tap, I gave it a bit up River Lett and it was like launching a rocket into space, uphill. No revving, silent earth-shattering power. And brilliant handling. 12 speakers of astounding sound. I listened to the Queensland Symphony Orchestra do a live recording of Strauss, and I was in that hall, the sound was astonishing, it gave me goosebumps. And this is the view through the roof. And many would never buy one, because “I hate Elon”. They wouldn’t buy any EV, because their friends don’t buy them, and they don’t want to be different to their friends. Imagine wasting your adult life with that high school shit. The return trip cost less than $3 in electricty.
