          No thank you. I don't want a swasticar.

          I'd love to have one of those new production old style beetles. But we can't buy them here because our govt sucks donkey dick.

          VW cars are built by Uyghurs, which, last I checked, are a surpassed minority in China, that has to work under slave-like conditions.

          But I guess most cars are produced like this.

            Is that "all stops", as in they will get rid of that guy who very definitely did a Nazi salute?

              Wow, it's beautiful and so futuristic! I bet Tesla could sell twice as many as the Cybertrucks of those. Provided he makes it bulletproof of course. The great weakness and the reason for the disappointing sales of the Cybertruck is that the glass isn't bulletproof, I simply can't think of any other reason.

                  Yea, it seems like beetle is one of the few models not produced in China (according one propter of chatGPT, so some salt is required 😆)

                  It seems to me, that the cars needed in the biggest quantities and Budget EVs are produced in China.

                    Trump lifted the tariffs. At this point I think it was just a smoke screen so there would be less coverage of Elon taking over the Treasury.

                    There are no smoke screens with this government. They don't "do X to cover for Y." None of it is "a distraction." They're impulsive children. They do X because they want to do X. But what they have learned is that if you move fast and do a lot of bad things all at once, you usually get away with at least some of them.

                      All they had to do was build a solid, reliable truck, and not be fascist. Instead they build a poorly glued together piece of shit and sieg heil. I fucking hate this timeline.

                        Could even decorate it with a pattern based on an asian symbol commonly found on temples!

                              The massive, massive difference is that the VW Beetle wasn't a shitbox for rich people. It's okay to say that once in a great while. the Nazis, despite being horrific in most ways, did have an idea that wasn't bad and this was that. The VW Beetle was an affordable car and if something went wrong with it, you could probably fix it yourself with only a small amount of automotive knowledge. You really don't even need to give Hitler credit for that considering he basically just told Ferdinand Porsche to do all the hard work.

                              Not so much the Cybertruck. It was Elon's baby from the beginning and he took a very close personal interest in it.

                              The Cybertruck is a bad idea. Even for rich people. It's been demonstrated over and over again.

                              But they also scammed people into spending money on a Volkswagen that they never delivered and took the money to support the war effort.

                                There were stops left that could be removed from Cybertrucks, still?

                                  Tesla fan here, this is kind of accurate. I wouldn't call it terrible, but the aluminum chassis means it has towing limitations, the small battery doesn't have nearly as much range as most other Tesla's and it gets worse if you're towing, plus not everybody wants to drive the Halo truck.
                                  Double the range or cut the price by 30% and you have an interesting car, as it is now I look at it as a first generation attempt.

                                  The car is objectively terrible. It's ha heavy duty car that can't do heavy duty things. The cybertruck has two things that it does well. It goes fast when you hit the accelerator and the sound system is really good. Everything else is extremely shitty, and a complete lie

                                    I keep seeing people say this. However, hate is what created this timeline. I don't believe it's what will get us into a new one.

                                    I mean no offense towards you; I want you to know this. I guess I just finally realized what it is that bothers me about that statement. In fact, I share your sentiment. Because not only are they poorly made, common sense safety measures are removed and replaced with poorly engineered crap that traps people, while other badly designed components catch fire and burn them to death.

                                        First time I’ve used this phrase, myself. But I had such hope for the future and I guess I am finally admitting my hope is gone.

                                          Thanks, friend. Much needed words. Maybe I’ll put my decades of counter strike to good use at some point.
