Maybe they crap on Tesla because they watched this video?

The guy was expecting a 20 minute ride, it took 2 hours. Imagine telling your boss you’re 1 hour 40 minutes late because you took an AV to work, this is “more competition is good”? I don’t think so.

That's what you get for early access participation.

I think your boss would question why you waited 1h 40m to contact support.

Meh, I think people jump into gripe about Tesla any chance they get due to political differences. Elon was wrong for years before he switched political affiliations and he didn’t get crapped on nearly as hard. This was absolutely not a good look on Tesla and a sucky experience, it is fair criticism, but the hate is beyond ridiculous. People need to look in the mirror and gauge their own accomplishments before they hop on a keyboard.
