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?

    This happened to me. Went out to cali to visit family. My wife says hertz upgraded us for free and wanted to try a tesla.

    I always knew one day i was going to get an ev just wasnt planning on it for awhile. Especially since i had just bought a brand new tacoma a year prior….

    But after i drove it and came back home… i just couldnt get that feeling out of my head. It was like a virus…. Every time i got into my tacoma i just hated driving it… sold the tacoma 3 months later and bought a Y……. Lol……

      that’s where my head is at now haha. not having 1 pedal driving and having to go to the gas station as someone who doesn’t drive more than 100 miles in a day I am really feeling like that will be me soon.
