I would pay to watch you have this conversation with the Tesla Engineer in question.

FWIW "seeing how the sausage is made" is a pretty common sentiment in most industries.

Yeah engineers rarely support our companies. We see every decision to trade quality for cost

I'm sorry, I'm not an apologist. I have owned two Teslas in the last 5 years and they have been nothing but amazing. No issues.

Not flawless, but certainly as compared to other EVs a cut above.

That said, likely my next car will be a Rivian if they survive.
