So you’re going to pay $75,000 incrementally over a nice regular trailer to save $3.75/gallon of gas. Got it.

This is smart.  No need to ban when the fuel is eco friendly.  Murica needs to follow suit.  Choice is great.

So, it’s mediocre at the thing 1% of truck owners do with their truck 1% of the time.

If you get 100 people obsessed with having a perfect body and only 2 are nuts then thats honestly a pretty good ratio.

So 363,000 people shelled out $10-15k for “full self driving” that is currently worthless?

The irony is that the EV being used to evac likely has more charge (if you’re evac’ing from home), than an ICE vehicle has fuel. My cars are constantly hovering around 1/4 tank. EVs are generally plugged in at home. They’ll be just fine.

If he wasn’t hoarding all that wealth, instead of one $500 million dollar boat, maybe a million people could have $500 more in their pocket to buy a little boat of their own and take a camping vacation or something.  

nvermind. found the sails. But i guarantee it spends the majority of it’s existence running on fuel.

He could have done the same thing and more by building a library, hospital, or school and not have missed a penny. The benefits would outlast the build, too.

Honestly, it isn’t really even that good for appliances either. Prone to scratches and swirl marks. Just that the general public has been fooled into thinking it is somehow more sanitary and/or a sign of high end function, when the surface finish really has little impact on appliance performance.

So typical Tesla repair cost

At least the cybertruck deposit is only $100. That’s like missing out on $5 of interest over 3 years.  Roadster 2.0 required a $50,000!! deposit starting in 2017! And they don’t even talk about it anymore. Of course, Roadster is for the Richie Rich’s of this world so maybe 50k is like 100 to them.

Right? lol  Don’t forget Rivian.

By the time this thing ever makes it to production, no one except the die-hard ass-kissers are going to give a shit about it.

Am I the only one that liked how the Cybertruck looked initially and now finds that it has aged like milk?

Boring Company.

bah. just go by a Rivian. its like the cyber truck, but its good and it exists.

Fortunately, design problems are only problems when you make Real Things, and not just vaporware 🙃 

His next project will be to ask “what if the whole airplane was made of the same material as the black box?”

Stainless steel: all of the weight of regular steel, with the unforgiving stiffness of aluminum.
