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

According to Musk, it's a crime to not buy the cybertruck

hey don't you disparage bourbon like that. bourbon isn't a fascist :c I hope
-
Fucking why dude? Elon shit aside, you ostensibly knew what this thing looked like, right?
-
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.

He delayed them for a month.

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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Can you sell it for resources? There have to be some rare metals in them.
-
I don't do nuance with Nazi shit, sorry.
Didn't bother reading past that nonsense. Glad you got some writing exercise in, though.
