i didn't drive it, had a bunch of conference calls, but my bro's buddy rented a model 3 yesterday and brought it over. he is not a tesla nutswinger but he is far more bought into full EV prevalence in the short term compared to me.
in any case i was surprised that after he drove it, and after he drove his car later, he said his was more fun and playful. which is nothing special, a hyundai elantra gt. he said the tesla of course ripped when you got on the accelerator, and he said it handled well too, nonetheless described his car as more fun and playful. i can only guess it is because it has 700 lbs less to toss about.
i asked which one he'd buy right now at 19k vs 36k, if the model 3 was a hatchback (which he really wanted) - he wasn't sure on that one.
the stock is news cycles and hype trains. the y apparently the market felt disappointing and it dipped down a bit. more speculation than fundamentals in tesla stock going on vs. other car manuf or many other stocks, methinks.
