At one time I would have heartily agreed with this sentiment. But after almost 5 decades of driving more different vehicles (owned, borrowed, rented) than I can count, I've discovered that I can learn to live with a lot of vehicle characteristics that I despised at first drive. True, there are vehicle types and sizes that I just don't care to own. FWIW, at the moment, Tesla doesn't offer a vehicle that I'd want. But as long as I'm OK with an EV's energy storage and drive system, the basic vehicle shape, functionality, and size, and the overall quality of construction, I can adjust to almost anything else. So I think that if I'd read up sufficiently on a production EV and had a pretty good idea of what I was getting into, I'd be entirely willing to order an EV on the web and have it delivered. That would be ESPECIALLY true if the manufacturer offered to take it back if I didn't like it.
