    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.

    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.

      Or make a special edition. The Kristall Nacht with a red and black wrap or something.

                            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.
