    I’d pay five thousand dollars for one. Round off the sharp corners and put a Honda sign on it and BOOM I beat capitalism.

    No wonder they’re begging police departments to buy them.

      A part of me wants the police to have them so they can be a cluster fuck for them to maintain.

      Unfortunately, they’ll maintain it with my tax dollars.

    All those preorders cancelled bc they lied about the price and the quality doesn’t match. Tesla was doing fine until the CEO got involved. Idk why those assholes wanted to give him billions of dollars as a bonus. Just absurd.

      they probably want his name to be still have some recognition, because Xitter is a very useful tool for the right to control the supporters, that is more valuable than tesla.

    They’re hideous, the places with a population that could afford them mostly view them as a social black mark, and in terms of utility - they’re worse than just about any truck out there. It’s not about max towing weight. It’s about not being able to stack and strap a shit ton of stuff in there

      The economy is based on vibes and not the true value. However that doesn’t mean they aren’t allowed to borrow against those vibes, to avoid taxes.

      The stock price isn’t an accurate representation of the worth of the company. It’s an accurate representation of the amount of bullshit the company CEO is filled with.

    Mobile dumpsters? Port o potties for the homeless? The possibilities are endless.

    There’s probably a tax write off in there somewhere for Elon. Nice silver lining.

    Funny how “market rates” only mean “it will cost more for poor people” and never “our worthless product is worthless so we need to lower the price”

    waiting for someone to officially label them the DeLorean of the 21st century.

    Please, nobody insult the DeLorean this way.
