I feel really bad for that one guy who thought it was cool as a concept, put in a downpayment, waited for years, got the financing together while watching Elmo’s mask melting off the whole time and just thinking “I just want the truck, and then I’ll never buy another tesla again”. They get constant price increases and make them all just to see it through, and then . . . They get it. And it’s - well, what it is. And they’re totally screwed and besmirched. That one hypothetical guy I feel bad for.
The rest of them, /Nelson
You should always preorder games and cars, really any tech
I don’t. It looked stupid even in concept and utterly failed the window test. And that was in 2019, after the pedophile tweet, so his true colours were starting to show.
This reminds me of the early days of the Model S; a friend of mine was an early adopter and he himself was surprised if it went two weeks without having to bring it in for something or the other.
Oh, and the dashboards that would occasionally freeze while driving. Luckily, Tesla knew it was a piece of shit, so you could just press and hold two buttons to reboot it.
The button press is actually fairly common in most cars. In most German cars (Audi, BMW, Mercedes) it used to be Back+Volume Power… but in all those cases it’d only reboot the infotainment system. Things like the speedometer were a completely seperate, more stable system.
In the EU they’re required by law to be closed off from any user manipulation, ie not on the same network as the entertainment stuff.
Tesla is a lemon orchard.
I saw a dude with a Cyuck (shorthand for cyber truck) at Costco the other day trying and failing to fit his new TV into the bed lol
At one point he gave up and tried fitting it into the back seat which didn’t fare much better
Conspicuously consuming stupid cars and buying a TV (we all know it’ll be tuned to Fox News 24/7) - yeah sounds about right. Far right.
Cyuck, pronounced with a hard C.
idc about recalls. why is this deathtrap legally allowed on the streets?
Billionaires pay off the right people.
*Wealth hoarders Fixed that for you
Or just parasites.
A lot of cat companies have been caught faking testing and faking compliance over the years. I suspect it’s not been eliminated as an option.
To be honest I’ve never bothered to check the authenticity of my cat’s compliance tests.
It looks like someone took a kid’s crayon drawing of a car and built it.
Reminds me of that Simpsons episode with Homer’s step-brother being a rich automaker and such…
Don’t teslas also have the ability to use La Cucaracha as a horn sound?
Well, then we’re inside the TV my friend!
But he’s a genius just ask him
Forever? /s
