Bought an egolf way back.
Kind of regretted it but not really, it was just barely usable for commuting.
Bought a model 3, only regretted it because covid started later that month.
Bought a plug in suv, the plug in part is great, Toyota has such trash software I don't think I'll ever buy one again, though the car itself seems reliable as a rock otherwise.

Musk is a shit in various stages of psychosis, but the tesla was revolutionary, even though the self-drive is a complete lie, what it has is thoughtful software which is what we really need.
if ur planning to keep the car for a very long time and maybe hand it down to your kids some day, - i wouldnt go electric. These things wont last as long. The current ones on the market are all new, which is why people dont think about that yet.
A coworker had a problem with one that decided to do a software update in a parking lot that ended up bricking the car. After that, they went back to a gas powered car.
