I'm not exactly implying that buying a car to show off and assert status is reprehensible. Have I touched a nerve?

Anyways - I'm just saying that I hope EV manufacturer move up (or down) the immaculate luxurious interiors trip sooner rather than later so that some of us can buy and start using EVs without having to constantly worry about ruining a design project we're probably not worthy of.

Yea, my 115-hp 2011 VW Jetta :)

Regardless, vanishingly few of us here have gotten off the status treadmill, least of which me. We all just move the shells...

He's a fanboy and trying to make fun of your stated use-case as if you were the one showing off.

Ah - well, Tesla found a way to make EV sexy and I'm sure they have very ambitious goals. I'm just hoping that what's next steps down a bit from the luxurious (at least to me) interior and focuses on cargo space that can be used without bringing in tears ;-)
