This video was basically my neighbor telling me about his Model X. I have so many thoughts on Tesla's after driving one, but it boils down to the following:

Tesla's are cars for people who hate cars. The interior is sterile. If I'm going to buy a sports car or sports sedan, I want to feel like I am in a fighter jet, not like I am inside a computer. (Again, just my opinion.)

The performance is great, but I also take issue with how the self-driving features make driver's so inattentive it's dangerous. I avoid Tesla's like the plague when I see them on the freeway. I was riding with a buddy that had lane assist on last week, he complete ignored the guy signalling to change lanes while we sat in his blindspot. I don't care how good the self-driving features are, when a F250 changes lanes, I don't want to be in his blindspot.
