    Imagining my new all electric commuting box with a high fidelity decal of Linus Trovalds giving the guy in the back a double fisted middle finger!

    With speed lines and fire ball theme. The reverse sound alarm is the same thing they use in kei trucks...cute Japanese voice model saying excuse me I'm backing up! For lights, we would want fog lights along with a fog horn, we would want 300w for normal driving, 5000w for blinding incoming traffic and flash bulbs in case anyone wants to follow me too closely. A green laser for traffic cameras, and an LED screen so I can tell the guy behind me things I did with his mother. " We went shopping together yesterday... At Victoria's secret!"....and that's the design and how I would end a conversation regarding Tesla trucks.

      Fire your CEO.

      Out of a canon, through some flaming rings, and into an empty bucket of water. If I have to watch a clown-show, at least make it entertaining.

      Empty bucket of water? What about the shark invested-waters we booked over a year ago??

        It is not a good pickup truck regardless of Musk being a fascist

          Nobody builds cars under slave like conditions. It’s just not possible. Modern car factories are highly automated plants that require skilled operators. In the case of the VW Xinjiang, that was QC inspectors. There’s no way a hole in the wall car factory using outdated labor practices can come close to competing against modern production.

          You can be a skilled Person and still work und slave like conditions. That has nothing to do with each other..

            I was one of those that put down a deposit and happily waited for this truck to replace my 25 year old car. Then after he called the diver/rescuers pedophiles, I was instantly turned off. Now I actively push others to not buy a Tesla and refer to all Teslas as a Nazi mobile.

            Get fucked Elon.

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

                I don't even think he even commented on his Nazi salute after he did it. Which is even more damning.

                  I saw my first cybertruck in traffic yesterday, I initially thought that some redneck had every part you need to make a car except for the frame and body, and was like "I don't need none of that fancy shit, I got square tube and steel plate!" and welded together the laziest design they could think of. Then I realized it was just a cybertruck, and promptly laughed at it.

                  Its awfully close to a dumpster on wheels. Just needs some flames coming out of it and a bigger 'tesla' logo and it'll be perfect.

                    I can't buy one, they are not available in NZ yet. Despite what anyone else says, I like the look, it looks like the bastard child of a delorian and a countach, but in a good way.

                    I wouldn't buy one despite the fact that I like it. It is far too big for NZ roads, I may have overlooked that. But I can't overlook the fact that Elon has, for me at least, destroyed any good will that was built up. Tesla and all the people who work there have been tarred with the Nazi brush that Elon is wielding.

                    The only way that Tesla could claw back any respect from me (and hopefully the rest of the world) would be to oust Elon, and all his family from any decision making in the company. It will not happen so my respect for them is gone!

                      "pulling out all the stops" probably means removing the minorities and anti-fascists from the tesla payroll.

                        Maybe they should include free Nazi salute lessons with each purchase and a bottle of Kentucky bourbon to get all the backwater inbred hicks on board to help spur sales of the swastitruck?

                          Fire the CEO, for him to sell all his stock, recall all the trucks and go over them with a fine tooth comb for quality issues, force them all through safety tests and fix anything that's unsafe, lower the price by 40%..., get rid of the tracking bullshit, You'll still have a uglyAF "truck" but it might just be sellable.

                          Fixing safety issues would have to include that sharp front end. Maybe just ditch the entire "stainless" exterior and restyling the whole thing would help with that.

                          Pretty much start with the battery pack and drivetrain, start over after that.

                              I’m betting high odds he will force the federal government to buy them under the guise of a green EV transition. With trump’s full blessing, of course.

                              Maybe he'll force their sale to Ukraine, so Trump can pretend he supports them even while the cybertrucks break down in the field faster than Russia's WWII era tanks.

                                  Completely illegal in the UK as it'd never pass the safety tests. After all, that front hitting someone would be insta-death.

                                    I wouldn't take a cybertruck if it was free, ignoring musk entirely it's just a bad vehicle.

                                    The only place I'll drive a Cybertruck is in Fortnite because there I want my car to be unsafe.

                                        I'm not sure.

                                        They don't seem much more dangerous than the new breed of massive flat nosed ute's that I see around.

                                        If a pedestrian gets hit at any kind of speed by an ute, they are fucked.
