OK, I'm interested in the Mach-e, so I'm on this forum. I've never been on a Tesla forum, because I have so many friends that drive Teslas that I never really needed to be on a forum. I really and seriously apologize, because I always thought "Whatever, you are so biased." when I would read here about people complaining about Tesla "Fanboys". I mean, I love Tesla, and all of my friends do too. But everyone I know can discuss Tesla's drawbacks and the advantages of cars like the Mach-e.
So anyways, I now have two Teslas, so I thought I should join a Tesla forum. I kind of expected something like this forum: a few trolls but mostly intelligent folks who liked learning about all EVs, and could actually have an intelligent discussion where all parties learned something from the others. Boy, was I wrong.
OK, most folks on the Tesla forums really are no different than here. But wow, is there a vocal minority. I mean, I love Teslas and I get hammered for not loving them enough! To the point of remaining conveniently ignorant of any possible shortcomings. Do these idiots not realize that accepting any shortcoming virtually guarantees the lack of progress? You can't even talk about things that aren't really short comings, just natural disadvantages. You get slammed for trying to understand the car's limitations. Christ, ALL cars have limitations.
Anyways, I just wanted to apologize to everyone who I quietly thought "Yeah, right." But I would remind you that most Tesla fans really are the same as you. There's just a vocal minority that makes everyone else look bad. I'd encourage all the real folks on here, the ones that actually really do plan on buying a Mach-e, to not tolerate the few trolls you have. The ones that tell Mach-e lovers whatever they want to hear so that they can be accepted. These ass hats are the ones that will eventually ruin this forum and make everyone think you are all just Mach-e "Fan boys." I implore you to keep the flavor and the atmosphere this forum currently has. You have a few trolls, only a few, that will do their damndest to turn this into a fanboy site. You won't like it as much here if they get away with it.
'Nuff said.
