For decades, Tesla was the wish auto I never thought I’d individual. I remember again in 2018, stepping into a Model X at a California store. I didn’t even pull it, but merely sitting inside it made a lasting impression on me. It was smooth, cutting-edge, and exuded technology. However, I told myself it wasn’t useful. I convinced myself it was too costly, too bright, too unrealistic. Tesla was a “maybe tomorrow” sort of order — until the remaining went completely unhinged.

And then Elon Musk became common foe number one to the extreme left.  ,
Shops were attacked, Teslas vandalized, and online crowds screamed for strikes— not because of anything Is did bad, but because he dared to mate with President Trump and speak out against state waste and fraud. Their anger was therefore over-the-top, it had the same effect. If anything, it made Tesla more attractive to me. In truth, I wrote back in March that” the public’s total collapse is pushing me closer to buying one than I’ve ever been”.

Of course, I wasn’t going to buy a new car only to make a speech.
However, I found myself back on Tesla’s site more frequently, prices out versions and daydreaming. The more the left raged, the more I felt like buying some just to spite them. But I’m not that spontaneous — I needed to be sure it made financial feeling.
That’s when I crunched the figures. With the help of Grok AI, I analyzed the cost of owning a Model Y. Shockingly, it came up cheaper than my Nissan Rogue. That got my attention. I figured I had to check pull one before making any big decision, and I got my chance on a new family trip to my home in Massachusetts. While in town, I swung by a native Tesla shop and took a Model Y for a spin — and that was it. Game around. The technologies, the design, and the drive excellent were all amazing. And then there was the Full Self-Driving have — that really blew me aside.

I knew best next: I was buying one.
When I got back home, I pulled the trigger. Ordering the vehicle was very easy through the Tesla game.  ,

All was clean — until I ran into New York State’s absurd requirements. Even though there’s a store right in Buffalo, I had to push three days to Oneida to really get up the car. Why? Because New York’s forward car company rules block Tesla from selling directly to consumers. The only explanation I didn’t have to go all the means downstate to get it is because Tesla partnered with the Oneida Indian Nation to get around the government’s restrictions — a hole New York Democrats are now trying to shut down.
But yeah, I made the hike. And seriously? It was worth every hour.
The handover was smooth — only a quick visual observation, mark this, first that, a few taps in the software to set up my phone as the key to the car, surrendered my Rogue, and I was on the road. Best piece? I didn’t actually actually drive home. Tesla’s Full Self-Driving handled it. It navigated customers, made goes, passed slow drivers — it was like something out of a sci-fi film.
