It’s not Tesla owners but Tesla share-holders that might have standing to sue him... but you stated the problem with this yourself.  How can they sue him when their investment values are soaring upwards?  When this house of cards does eventually fall, I imagine there might be lawsuits from whichever true believers…

Right back at ya, buddy.

How much do you bet these new self-driving regulations will somehow absolve the manufacturer of the legal liability of running these cars. The insurance industry may be the last hope of American children, pets, and even adults from being run over by Cyber(death)Cabs.

It’s what HALF the people voted for. Trump literally got 50% of the popular vote. The other half voted 48% for Harris and 2% for anyone else.

Tire noise is all you get for most ordinary ICE vehicles as well.  If it’s not a truck or a sports car, it’s not making much noise these days either unless under hard acceleration.  Just driving down a neighborhood street?  Tires.

Insurance companies refuse insurance when they’ll go out of business if they don’t. So it doesn’t matter if they try or even succeed at forcing insurance companies to insure this... they’ll just go out of business and then they’ll be uninsured anyway and nobody will be able to afford the liability of operating a…

Well first it’ll be the insurance companies that will refuse to insure his cars that are enabled for “unsupervised” self-driving. Then when he tries to take on the insurance himself at Tesla, the lawyers you’re talking about will bankrupt him.

Nobody builds a particularly plain EV with that much range. You’re looking at a Model S, Lucid Air, or one of the EV trucks that can get long range if it’s not hauling anything (because of stupid big battery packs) like the Rivian R1T or the Chevy Silverado EV.

You’re seriously saying he has to tell everyone not to do this?

Can’t wait for the plot of Wolverines to become a reality!

I still don’t understand how MAGAs think...

Trumpanzee’s don’t care about facts, they only care about their feelings.

It’s complicated on BOTH sides of the spectrum now. Believe me, I am a second-time Tesla owner who just voted a straight blue ticket like I’ve done for the past decade.

If you car is off doing something without you, and causes an accident, who’s at fault?

I would be fine not having HVAC physical buttons/knobs if automakers would just put in two temperature set-points like most home thermostats have now. I never have to adjust my home thermostat because it’s already programmed when it should run the AC, when it should run the heater, and when it should do neither.

Yeah, but the rich are always gonna be fine either way.   

A lot of us are sitting here thinking “boy those Trump voters are really going to pay now”, but they won’t.

Adding a few thousand bucks to the price of two of the best-selling cars in America is surely an easy way to piss off the people that voted for you and your pledge to make America affordable once again.

Maybe everything looks like a bag of nails when you’re that big a tool?

Someone did this with glitter bombs some years ago, didn’t they?
