It is consistently amazing to me how little the average salesmen in literally every industry knows about their products...

You’re the one taking great offense to a TEMPORARY modification to a car that you don’t own, that isn’t even that unique.

I’m a little more precious with my appreciating assets than I am with my car. I’m not sure that I would actually like owning a vehicle that was going up in value...

I think for a long time Teslas did hold their value well (they may still, in the long run.) That was more related to supply shortages than anything else.

And additionally,... in the video on twitter, look at where the driver’s head is compared to the roofline of the back seat. Its supposedly going to be 4 passenger, but it looks like it will have the headroom of the back seat of a 911.

So, who gives a shit then? Its not ruined at all. It just has a wrap on it.

The “reality” of EVs is becoming apparent, Toyota Motor Chairman Akio Toyoda told reporters at the Japan Mobility Show last week.

When rich people figure out they cannot get even richer without infrastructure repairs then they will be repaired sold off to private entities and turned into toll roads.

And what if they DIDN’T have <problem that I made up to justify my position>?

I would much prefer not having to deal with maintenance at all to free maintenance (that I paid for with the purchase).

Its a pipe dream UNTIL it goes into production, and WHEN it doesn’t have all the magical features he said it would for the price he said it would, the thing he announced will STILL be a pipe dream.

PhD = Piled Higher and Deeper.

It’s just that it is a complexity that could be avoided by choosing a different style.

He’s never going to love you the way you want him to...

If they start making 250k a year in 2025 and their backlog is 2 million,... they would theoretically not sell a Cybertruck to someone who didn’t preorder until 2032?

I don’t know if you’ve ever driven or owned an Avalanche, but if you haul lumber or sheet goods (or any long material), I think you’re really going to like the 4 door with mid gate configuration if you use it. Its super versatile.

Remember all the noise about Tesla not being profitable? Then tesla pulled a profit and the story changed to “it was only because of environmental credits”.

EV chargers are first come, first serve, just as gas pumps are.

I don’t know that it makes sense to read economic judgement into it...
