Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt

So things are going to go downhill real fast, is what you're saying

[jericho_kane@lemmy.org]

Youtuber it seems.

[jericho_kane@lemmy.org]

Yes, if you're too young to remember what a forum is, i guess you can call it social media

[benaaasaaas@lemmy.world]

You mean this style of beetle?

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

[rangerjosey@lemmy.ml]

I know exactly what I said.

[cosmonova@lemmy.world]

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

[silasmariner@programming.dev]

All social media can be anonymous if you want it to be

[red_october@lemmy.world]

Yeah because they were showing such restraint before.

[ilovethebomb@lemm.ee]

Well, ackshually ️🧐

Beetle was a copy of a Tatra anyway.

[flyingsquid@lemmy.world]

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.

Cybertruck = Homer car

[earthshiptechintern@lemm.ee]

Made by under-paid awesome people that got themselves stuck working for an idiotic wannabe pseudo-Nazi.

[flyingsquid@lemmy.world]

Except the Homer Car actually worked properly. It just looked stupid and had stupid "features" no one wanted but Homer.

The Cybertruck isn't even that good.

[earthshiptechintern@lemm.ee]

Eww! Don't eat THAT longpig. Cannibals have values.

[earthshiptechintern@lemm.ee]

And the cybertruck is hardly a pickup truck. What were you saying?

[froh42@lemmy.world]

Tesla just needs a new slogan or a good marketing campaign.

Something like:

Tesla - power by joy

Or "Kraft durch Freude" in German.

All that would perfectly fit the brand image.

[buzz86us@lemmy.world]

Exactly I thought this would be a purely functional truck at a good price, but for that much it is not worth it

[worldleader462@lemmy.world]

You mean These people

[booganiganie@lemmy.world]

Bit like Elon,
Never lived up to the hype
