The last time I called for a ride, the driver was in a Tesla. I'm not familiar with the Tesla models, but I'm guessing it's the cheapest one. It was so narrow in there. Definitely not comfortable to have three people (who aren't overweight) in the backseat. It was a bit of a shock compared to my Outback, which is much roomier (I didn't drive because we planned to be drinking).

Also, it had this screen in your face even in the backseat playing ads or whatever that I was trying to ignore. And it didn't feel premium. I don't know why anyone would want that car.

I had read about people not knowing how to use the door handles on a Tesla and I still had trouble using them.

I'd rather not die in a fire in some shitty ass car being sold by a neo-Nazi.
