Teslas turn toxic as sales crash in Europe and the UK | EV sales in the region are growing, but not for Tesla
-
Their news cars are more expensive and more weird than the old ones, while the competition has been catching up, so it might be that, too...
-
-
Yeah, fascism seems to be flourishing all over. I've never got the impression that France was any worse than anywhere else though.
-
You know it was the French revolution that popularised the guillotine as a means of dealing with wealthy elites?
But yeah I don't see how Tesla is going to ever repair the damage to their image, unless they can kick musk out and that doesn't seem likely.
-
I know it's not cool to take the piss out of someone's appearance - but the fucker really does look like some of his ancestors were potatoes.
-
I used to have a proton jumbuck, it was a really handy pickup and the same size as a regular car. But it's hard to find parts for em in the UK. It's a shame there aren't many sensibly-sized pickups.
But yeah, I kind of think most people who have massive ones that only get used for school run and supermarket are knobs.
-
I used to have a proton jumbuck, really useful little pickup. But they're hard to find in the UK and getting parts can be tricky.
-
Make a product line of electric guillotines? And dogfood with Musk.
Anyway, the French revolution is not considered a one-sided success.
-
I was just joking, but you forgot to say that this
kicking the shit out of people
can be made more specific, they were regularly kicking the shit out of Germans. Germans were the suffering side saying "thanks for punishing me, master" for many years. Not even counting, obviously, Normans kicking the shit out of English.

Yeah, el Caminos look proper cool. TBH I thought my jumbuck looked pretty cool too. And it was really useful, at the time I was hauling a lot of wood and it drove just fine with a heavy load. I think it was maybe a 1.2 petrol engine iirc. They are pretty cheap if you can find them, I sold mine with 6 months MOT for about £500 . But yeah, parts are tricky, which isn't great with a work vehicle
-
Tesla doesn't deserve to tarnish the great inventor's name. Elon more specifically. But who knows, possibly the company's management team are all mini Elons. The workers they are not at fault.
-
I get the impression that right wing folks are more into fossil fuels.
Yup. I’d say they’re intentionally stupid.
-
At least the current vw CEO isn't openly a Nazi and they make good cars; unlike muskrat and his swasticars.
-
I don't think taking away their money would instantly fix their sociopathic tendencies, but it would allow them to actually engage with real human society again and the community and experiences from that would help to build empathy again.
But the reason for stripping them of their wealth is that their dangerous, we don't give nukes to violent schizophrenics.
-
I wouldn't fuck with VW after their "eco-diesel" bullshit from a decade or two ago.
-
I had the option, it drives you nuts
-
Yeah I'm glad the other guy replied with more details because my fuzzy memory was telling me that the French surrendering stereotype was around back in the 90s at least, but I was pretty young then and it was hard to remember.
-
Sure am glad all the car companies decided to use the Tesla charger as the standard. /s
-
It's an open standard now, it doesn't really matter that Tesla was the first. So it's a good thing, kind of like iPhones using "Android charging cables" now.
