> Then stick to buying Hondas and BMWs...

Agreed. But it doesn't help that consumers have accepted faux-trust (i.e., marketing) for real Trust.

The key to real Trust is simple: It's earn. It can't be ordered. Demanded. Come from nothing. Be bought. Etc.

The irony here is, trust for Tesla is based on trust for other like (read: premium) auto brands. But in the end, it hasn't been earned. And it shows.
