    To be fair to Hitler, his cars weren't trash

    They made Mexico city what it is. The beetle is legendary. And the program "hoy no circular" or "today you can't commute" was invented became too many people owned too many god dammed cars. So in the program they would allow you to use your car only in certain days. Additionally they modernized their metro system making it accessible for incredibly cheap. Not long ago for a few cents you could travel around the city a few stops. By comparison the trolley in sandiego is out dated as outdated can be and it only goes up and down the coast with only one rail heading east. Mexico city made a spider grid off they're system. Like from any peripheral location you can travel to the center or travel in the periphery towards another center bound rail. Its great. You can go anywhere without a god dammed car.

      Even if you ignore the politics it's just a terrible car that is way too expensive. I'm honestly surprised it sold any units at all but I guess people just like vanity toys.

      It's hard to find insurance for it, it's objectively terrible at it's job, that's very few mechanics that can service it, It isn't available in Europe, it has terrible quality control issues, It is made by a company with terrible customer service, and it is made by Nazi

      So many reasons not to buy it.

        Rich enough to own a cyber truck, but not bright enough not to own a cyber truck. Yeah it's what they "call look at me" energy.

        Politics notwithstanding people like that are just tiring to be around.

          Not really, but since we live in a world where most people are happily sharing their lives online it's easy to imagine how not using social media might make people think you have something to hide and, therefore, can't be trusted.

          Few it fewer people are actually using Facebook and similar to share their lives because it just feels really intrusive.

          Mostly because how much advertising is now showed down your throats.

          If they want to know more about me I can share my camera feed but it's like 98% cat photos.

            Yep, what else could you call it? It's not a hatchback, a sedan, a convertible, a sports car, etc.

                For what it was spec’d at originally, I think more people would have been willing to consider it than would like to admit,

                I'll admit it: a $30k EV with 600 miles of range? You'd be an idiot to not consider that, until it was proven to be bullshit and Elon was proven to be a full-on fascist.

                People would have probably accepted the fascistness as well. If the car had come out as advertised.

                  Both shitty visions of the future. Well the movie for Running Man took place 6-8 years ago, and the book takes place this year which could count as "future" since we're only in February.

                        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.

                        I don't like cybertruck just wanted to point out the awkward history of WV

                            The best thing they could do for their sales is get rid of all ties to Elon Musk.

                            While true this still won’t make the Cyberdrumpf meet EU regulations. You can’t make it street legal here.

                                      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.

                                          So many reasons not to buy it.
