> I've seen him say quite negative things about Tesla, and quite positive things about Tesla's competitors.

What I've seen from him, he always shows a clear bias towards Tesla.

> Can you give me an example of something Sandy Munro has said which IS NOT something good about a Tesla product, where he has clearly sacrificed engineering concerns?

When I say he's a Tesla shill, it's specifically because of the positive things he says about Tesla.

For example, here [1] he claims that the FSD Beta is currently at level 4 and "full self-driving" is just around the corner. Do you agree with that?

So saying positive things about a good product makes him a shill? That’s a pretty low bar you set. Does this apply to all things in your life?

Saying only positive things about a mediocre product makes him a shill.

Right. Checks out. There's certainly solid engineering logic and reasoning there!

So, if that's your best example, are you tacitly admitting you can't think of any mechanical engineering examples?

It is actually my best example, as it shows very clearly how much he is willing to say untrue things in favor of Tesla. Why should only mechanical engineering examples be valid?
