a nice appliance......for clueless people.

That article was enough to tell me not to bother.

Lost me at: "it’s also the closest anyone has come to making a smartphone on wheels", but I read the whole thing anyway. I'm sure it will appeal to some, though I know not why.

"I know plenty of people who have no idea what their tachometer is or why it exists.
The Tesla Model 3 feels made for these people. It doesn’t assume you know anything about cars. Or that you care. This vehicle just wants to provide the most seamless possible transition from one place to the next. It’s immersive driving, in the sense that you have a great view of wherever you’re rolling through. It also barely feels like driving, because it doesn’t give you any gauges to look at or significant steering feedback. Hell, the only part of the Model 3 that’s user-serviceable is the windshield washer fluid reservoir, which redefines what car ownership is really like."

Nope, definitely not for me.

And I'm more than a little scared at the thought that someone who regularly drives one of these might one day venture into a "normal" car and share the road with me.
