Waiting for trump to send off musk to death camp for being a terrorist.
I think the current power dynamic in the whitehouse may make the opposite more likely.
It’s 18 months old and falling apart, literally.
I’m not saying it wasn’t safe, it just wasn’t as safe as the other ones lololol thanks for this
How do I know exactly what video that is without a preview and before clicking the link? 😂🤣
Because the front fell off.
I’d like to say, that’s not typical.
Also, apparently the back fell off too…

What a fucking literal rolling dumpster 🤦♂️
Max tongue weight for a Cybertruck is 1100 lbs. They put almost ten times on it before it broke. It was fun, but it’s not a valid test.
Incorrect, their listed maximum towing capacity is indeed stated to be 11,000 pounds (4,990 kilograms)
Feel free to check for yourself…
Tongue weight and towing capacity are two different things.
Is this a sketch or a real interview?
Edit. It’s a sketch. I was hoping there was a real politician like that lol
You’re wishing for more idiots in this day and age?
The new models are being fixed by “nut clamping”
Can I be added to the recall? 🥹
Only if you take me with you!!
Thats absolutely meaningless in the face steel plates adhered to a plastic frame.
This guy clamps
“We are not robbers.”
“Ok, you can rub them.”
Is this a service rendered to the owners or the vehicles?
Ow.
I can’t help but think “Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly” with this news
“The front fell off.”
The difference with the old trim is that the new one will have a better adhesive assembly and “a stud welded to the stainless panel with a nut clamping the steel panel to the vehicle structure.”
It’s a good thing Elon doesn’t think “exposed screw heads are cool.”. This could have been fixed with a carbide drill bit and some self-tapping screws.
This has exposed the sales numbers, and impressively, it’s sold even worse than the Fire Phone.
46k trucks sold so far. For comparison, rivian sells about that many of their trucks every year.
I still can’t believe that 46k people are both that stupid and have 100k to spend.
the vast majority of them i see around my area have branding decals plastered all over them. no doubt they are being used as a business expense or some other dumb shit.
There are huge tax breaks for…
Buying a car for your business. Buying a car that has a 6ft bed for your business Buying a car with 6000+ lb curb weight for your business. Buying an electric car for your business. Buying a car that is wrapped or decorated to promote your business.
When you put them all together, the CT is basically 100% tax write off.
A van would be so much better for advertising. Much more space to put a logo and text plus it’s higher up and therefor more easily visible.
You could put a blinking neon light ad all over the entire night sky, but if someone farted, you would still look around and ask “who farted?”.
The Tesla is so stupid ugly that it attracts attention the same way.
I saw a local restaurant with its branding on it the the other day. Well, there’s one restaurant I never need to try.
Go to Boulder CO and you’ll see plenty of rich morons with that kinda cash. I saw multiple swastitrucks a day over there
. . . and have 100k to spend.
You can get an 84 month auto loan these days if you’re dumb enough to do it.
I’m curious, does Tesla have its own financing division that gives out these loans?
They do.
That’s still over $1000 a month to buy a fucking car
It’s more of a self-igniting dumpster.
If you’re dumb, and you can get $15-17k from selling an existing vehicle, you can get a 3 year lease down to delta of $500-$600.
Telsa was pushing leases pretty hard because a lot of EV incentives are lease-only. I’ll bet they duped a lot of people into putting a shitload down for a lease.
To be fair, Rivian is selling as many trucks as they can produce. Rivian could sell more vehicles if they had the line capacity.
Tesla is an older company with more mature manufacturing lines, and they can make more Trucks, but no one wants them.
I forgot the Fire Phone was a thing.
I will never forget, and I will hold onto my Fire Phones (yes, plural) until the day I die.
Holy fuck they still work? Can you run any modern apps on them? Does the 3D give you a headache?
Update: Still Alive
Wow, that’s fucking awesome. Can you put it on a network?
I don’t have any spare SIM cards lying around, but I do recall doing a brief test a couple years ago, and apart from some problems with SMS message formats, things seemed to work fine.
Unless you’re referring to WiFi, to which the answer is of course, as that’s how the time and date got set correctly. On boot it somehow thought it was an hour earlier and eight days ahead, but still on a Friday; I forgot to check which year, though.
Daaang, I forgot about the 4 (!!!) front cameras. Super creepy. Like, one is already bad and accepted but four…
The four cameras on the corner were lo-rez IR cameras used exclusively for head tracking for the Dynamic Perspective feature.
Updates stopped at a special KitKat-based FireOS version, so most modern apps are likely broken. Dynamic Perspective never gave me a headache - it’s actually pretty well implemented - but it does get boring after ten to fifteen minutes.
I think I’ll charge one up and see how it’s doing!
What’s dynamic perspective?
They had a sort of 3d effect to them using the 4 front cameras which was a neat gimmick
What had a 3d effect? Selfies?
I’m not sure that really says much. I hate swasticars as much as y’all do, but like, $400 phone versus $100K car. Makes sense the fire phone sold better. And I mean, it wasn’t being pushed by a literal Nazi so that helps.
The phone was $650 at launch, carrier-locked to AT&T, and was pushed by Jeff Bezos.
Panels on that shit are glued together, so I guess they got ahold of stronger glue.
Elmer’s glue mixed with Ketamine
I guess they got ahold of stronger glue.
Only because they wanted to huff it. The panel thing was just a coincidence.
Of course. Yet another Tesla recall. In a few months, we will all be here again
Keep tuned for the first cyber truck spontaneous combustion and the recall for battery concerns
This one is different, though. Most of them are just OTA software updates, the physical ones aren’t as common. Although I think there was an issue with how they secured the top of the gas pedals on the Cybertruck earlier.
They sprayed lube on the pedal and glue on the cover, the lube caused the glue to fail.
Just send them all to the scrap yard, fucking heaps of junk.
Based Tesla makes a car that vandalizes itself
And nobody who is familiar with how technology companies operate was shocked to hear that the 100k incel camino is literally held together with cheap glue.
So what i gather is there’s probably a readily available solvent to dissolve the glue and make any Swasticar Wankpanzer fall the fuck apart?
It’s called cold weather.
So, liberal use of dry ice FTW?
You can step up the scale of solvent molecular weights until you find one that gives the desired result, but I’m going to conjecture that regular old acetone will probably be quite sufficient.
Neat. On a serious note, i do not personally recommend doing this; that shit flying off on a highway could kill somebody.
Sam: I hope there was nobody on that bus.
Max: Nobody we know, at least.
Haha
It really is a metaphor for the current state of America.
