I'll stick with the douchebag BMW image, it fits me better.


That is too funny. I work in IT, and I kid you not, there have been various IT conferences I've been to where I have met people just like that. Most recently, there was a guy at one conference wearing a Tesla branded hat and denim jacket just gushing about his car and how he doesn't have to buy gas anymore.

I mentioned I was a car enthusiast, but he couldn't fathom why I would be interested in anything that wasn't fully electric. Some of these Tesla owners just see their car as a gadget like you said, just an extension of their smartphone.
