What I'm saying is that IF the established large car manufacturers actually wanted to switch to all EV, they would make a much better car than Tesla very quickly, it's just a fact for obvious reasons. But it's not their main goal at the moment, and thus the difference. The quality of materials in Tesla for the price is not up to par compared to an actual car manufacturer. Take a BMW for the same price as you paid that Tesla, if you can tell me with a straight face that the build quality and assurance of that Tesla is better, then fine, but it's not, and we both know it. But OK, I'm glad you're happy with your purchase either way.
I did my research, ain't getting one in the near future without EVs solving several crucial problems, that's for sure.

Tesla's are shit compaired to ACTUAL car companies, the quality is absolutely subpar for the cost. If somebody like, say, VW, or Toyota, wanted to make an actual electric vehicle, whether it be for the masses or the rich, they would do it much better in much less time than it took Tesla to do it.
That said, only EVs are NOT the answer, as they as well require a hell of a lot of energy, and that would drive up the prices as well. Not mentioning the cost of manufacturing, the battery replacement/storage problem, etc.
