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?

    In my current car the blind spot alert is a mirror and turning my head.

    Good reason to make sure your next car has one of the top accident prevention safeties, the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS).

    Same for Rear Cross Traffic Alert.

    Each shows a 30% reduction in two of the most common accidents.

    Lane keeping alerts, which are weak in Tesla, sometimes giving an alert, sometimes letting the car drift into oncoming traffic, is another safety Tesla doesn’t do well, if at all.
