Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt
-
Importantly, the success of the Beetle also came after the Nazis. They built the factory using confiscated union funds as well as having people pay instalments for cars which they would never get, built two or three Beetles, then switched production over to war-time production, Kübelwagen. After the war the unions effectively took over the whole plant... and also bought a couple of farms to make sure workers and families had enough to eat. Most of that is gone now but they still have their own butchery, VW part number 199 398 500 A is a saussage.
this is beyond amusing

If you do not revolt against the government, you will receive a free cybertruck as a replacement for your house, which will be too expensive to live in.
Each immigrant willing to leave voluntarily will receive a free cybertruck.
The US military, firefighters, EMT's and police force will get new vehicles! They will all start to use cybertrucks.

Muskie boy, have you tried suing people to get them to buy the truck?
According to Musk, it's a crime to not buy the cybertruck

You joke, but I can 100% see this happening.

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?
hey don't you disparage bourbon like that. bourbon isn't a fascist :c I hope

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.
Fucking why dude? Elon shit aside, you ostensibly knew what this thing looked like, right?

Honest questions: What attracted you to it? Do you like the design?
I will admit, when the first mentions of it came out, and it was going to be this cheap, capable, all-electric futuremachine, I was tempted to put down a deposit. At first I thought the design was functional, to keep manufacturing cheap and have a durable, Midwest-proof vehicle between the stainless and aluminum.
It turned out to be 100% true opposite of what I had imagined, so thankfully figured I’d wait. Decided keep my 10 year old car until it NEEDS replacement (which it does not).

That's unlikely. You need to get grants from the federal government, chiefly the DHS, to get money to buy major equipment. There ain't anymore federal grants remember. Small volunteer, (70% of all fire depts in the US), services are especially reliant on those grants to replace major assets.
Source: Been on committees to spec and buy ambulances and fire trucks and turnout gear. Even boots and gloves sometimes.

You are acting like they don't have an interest in arming/militarizing local police...

You act like you don't understand police departments need grants to buy those things also.

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.
He delayed them for a month.

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.
My boys specifically go after anyone in a Fortnite cyber truck.

I honestly don't mind the design. Sure some people hate it, but I didn't care about others opinions on my car. That's why my current vehicle is 25 years old. At that time, I was looking for a larger EV and during that time large EVs were nonexistent.
What sold me was the functionality. The concept had bench front row seating so I could seat 6(which they removed in the final). It had a usable trunk unlike the EVs at the time. There was frunk which was only on Teslas at the time. Also Tesla at the time had the highest safety rating among all cars. A promising auto pilot (which is a lie).
It also claimed to have a bullet proof shell and glass. While Seattle is relatively safe, there have been many instances where people have been murdered for road rage or just existing at a red light

And it was the first electric truck for a little while, even though it ended up being delayed for so long and being an AWFUL truck and totally outclassed by both Ford and Rivian.

It certainly doesn't look very useful. It looks like you asked a 5-year-old to draw a "cool truck."
I'm generally all for that idea. Everything is the same gravel color now, and oversized and shitty. They could have made something that looked different but was still useful. They just failed.

I knew they should have built a real smoke and engine noise generator into the cyber truck. So that all those who insist on polluting, don't have to be left out.

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.
I'm pretty sure that the new employee orientation has a banner that says something about work setting me free.

They could put a big diesel in that large unused empty space in the back.

You act like they won't be replaced or disbanded by Musk if they won't do what he wants. He has enough money to buy anyone and anything. And he shows he isn't scared in doing so.

There are a lot of testimonials from people who own the bastard things declaring that they're virtually unsellable, by the way.
Can you sell it for resources? There have to be some rare metals in them.
