Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt
-
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.
-
It's closer to the Haitians eating ducks, I think. I sniff glue.
-
I don't even think he even commented on his Nazi salute after he did it. Which is even more damning.
-
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?
-
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.
-
It just needs a good putsch.
-
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.
-
Wow, the Cybertruck was announced that long ago?
-
Will they ever be available?
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.
-
Has Elon Musk tried not being a fascist plutocrat?
-
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.
-
Honest questions: What attracted you to it? Do you like the design?
-
It certainly doesn't look very useful. It looks like you asked a 5-year-old to draw a "cool truck."
-
I wouldn't take a cybertruck if it was free
You're being ridiculous, why would you seriously think that? That kind of internet opinion doesn't hold up in real life. I would absolutely take a free Cybertruck, I've long dreamed of making my own car bomb.

Not OP, but regardless of it being ugly, it is novel and kind of goofy look, which has some appeal. Like buying a car designed by a child it’s sort of “fun”.
Otoh, I don’t have the cash to throw away on “fun”, and regardless, funding a nazi definitely ruins the fun, so even if I won the lottery, I’d have to find my fun elsewhere I suppose.

No, the cave thing happened in 2018, but the Cybertruck was announced late 2019.
