Went on business travel to CA this month and decided to try driving a Tesla to see what it was like. Big mistake… coming home to my civic is painful. Coworkers told me a lot of my gripes like lack of buttons wear off after a month or so. I was already all in on electric for when my car eventually died but god, idk how long I will be able to stay ICE. Anyone else have similar experiences on test drives?
Most people who complain about engine noise seem to be coming from broken down old beaters or very cheap economy cars. I mean, even a Toyota Camry from a few years ago is pretty quiet (at least the V6). At highway speed, your engine has to be in pretty bad shape if you can hear it over the wind and road noise.
