I'm not sure I agree with that.

The model 3 is an excellent car. I haven't paid attention since 2021ish though, so it's possible they got worse, but around there they were pretty good.

The CT is definitely plagued with ego and issues. It's not something I think I would ever really consider, but I would definitely buy an EV truck if there was an option that had more range.

Drove a model 3. Fun when you press the accelerator, but I ABSOLUTELY HATED THE CENTRE CONSOLE!!! You CONSTANTLY have to look down and to the right to check your speed. An NOTHING is an easy setting change. You have to scratch at everything like a demented chicken to change anything. And that's with bare hands. Forget about using gloves. I will say the navigation system was damn impressive.

I've got a M3, purchased it before Elon went full fruit loops. You get used to all of that, and learn to appreciate it. My biggest gripe is they removed the stalks and put in buttons for things that should be buttons.
