Why doesn't the CT gets its due in press reviews?

[skinzy]

I've come from a 2016 Ford F-150 Limited pickup. Drove it for 8 years. I've seen and read lots of "professional" reviews that simply say CT "handles well" and then go on to complain about this that or the other thing.....really? I also have two Porsches and this truck handles better than both of them. IMO what sets the truck apart from the competition is how it handles on the road in most driving situations. It's spectacular on curvy mountain roads and with four wheel steering it parks like a dream in the city. IMO this is its strongest selling point and easily overwhelms other short comings. Am I missing something? What's the deal with these reviews?

Hating on Tesla and the CT in particular gets clicks. That's all that matters to most "review" and "news" sites.

Do you want just glowing reviews?

Too much time spent comparing quantifiable things like bed size, battery life, towing capacity, and other actual specs. Hard to explain “feels like something special” in words.

Rich Reviews has a car channel on Youtube. He gained his popularity as a Tesla proponent. He gradually shifted to anti-Tesla content. There is an audience to gain on both sides of the fence.

In his recent CT review he complimented the CTs great ride over bumpy roads. This is due to the long wheelbase. He then went on to bash the 4 wheel steering as ineffective because it only steered as tight as a short wheelbase GMC.

The point is everyone likes a little bit of schadenfreude, and bad Tesla news or reviews will get a lot of attention.

Lets be honest with ourselves though. Tesla is a HUGE beneficiary of media attention. No advertising for this long, and yet look at all the attention they get, good and bad.

I don’t think he was implying that…

You need links to find negative CT reviews? ?
Also he didn't say that. Troll much...

OP - is a combo of traditional audio industry money and influence (Sowing FUD), and the CT being one of the most clickbait prime phenomenons of this decade. Plus trolls love to, and are gonna troll.

I'm asking OP what reviews he's specifically talking about. I'm curious.
