Tesla is suffering from the delusion that because they led the market for a long time, they will always lead the market. Because they didn’t need advertising for a long time, they will never need advertising, that because they didn’t need to update the looks of their cars for a long time, that they will never need to…

I’m still waiting for those profits to trickle down.  Should be any day now...

The company had in November outlined a $10 billion stock buyback on the heels of reaching a costly new labor agreement with the United Auto Workers union.

Yeah but missing basics like ventilated seats and blind spot monitoring that any other car in it’s price range would at least have as an option if not included is crazy, especially for a company that prides itself on being bleeding edge tech.

A story as old as Reagan’s economic policy.

To be fair though, Kid Rock is himself a bit of a charlatan. He’s a middle class kid from Michigan and grew up around Detroit. His whole “redneck country bumpkin” thing is an act.

Well, I’m going to tell my clients I’m not going to work anymore until I get a significant raise and see how that goes. *fingers crossed*

You had to stay in a hotel to receive a Tesla??

“I desperately need to justify paying what I did for a Tesla, please look at my pictures and believe that this thing will have any resale value” - All recent Tesla buyers

My 2 cents worth is this. For EVs to REALLY achieve solid market penetration and acceptance, EV companies all need to get together and form International standards for batteries and chargers. In other words, they all need to use the same battery/charging station technology. And as I saw with one EV startup whose name…

This is like “My car can only use UNLEADED electricity, but every charger near me only has LEADED”.  

Tesla: “We’re stacking them deep and selling them cheap! (Well, we’re trying to offload the inventory anyway....)“

3 X and Y all look basically the same. And it’s getting pretty dated at this point.

Never happen. Kristi grinds her puppies up by hand at home.

Also just now realizing I should have gone with “relied on the pullout method,” so please imagine I said that when you read the post. 

“Are we all that surprised that the first Cybertruck owner on Nantucket used the pullout method?”

There once was a man from Nantucket
Whose newspaper told him to suck it
They did not approve
And told him to move
From public beach where he had stuck it

Drove his truck into town

Look if you’re in Nantucket it’s because you want to wear pink pants, eat fish sandwiches, flaunt your massive inherited wealth through extremely practical designer shoes, and slowly go mad in a creaky old mansion built 200 years ago by the widow of a whaling captain. Modern extravagances like the Cybertruck just…

Man, the sheer sense of ENTITLEMENT. How dare people have enough money to buy Bentleys but not do it? What a bunch of cucks, amirite? It never ceases to amaze when these businesses charge astronomic prices “because that’s what the market will bear” but as soon as that market doesn’t favor them, well clearly there must…
