Tom Blackburn
Tom Blackburn, a 76-year-old resident of Virginia, became one of the first 100,000 individuals to purchase a Tesla Model S nearly a decade ago, motivated by a desire to adopt a more environmentally conscious lifestyle. However, he now finds himself troubled by the political implications of his purchase, particularly due to CEO Elon Musk's controversial political actions and statements. Blackburn has taken to displaying a bumper sticker on his vehicle that reads, 'I bought this before I knew he was crazy,' as a form of protest against Musk's recent behavior and its impact on the Tesla brand.
