Boy, it’d be a shame if Detroit or the state just eminent domain-ed the whole thing and told GM to pound sand. A real shame.

Fiskfuls of dollars was right there.

Rarity will drive up the resale value of the Cybertrucks that remain in drivable condition after three years, because there just won’t be many left.

“Can’t park it, fit it on the streets, charge it, get it worked on, or get the software to work, had to give it baby bumpers, and people are constantly pointing and laughing at me.
...
Still love the truck.”

“Still love the truck”

Chaos goblins. Anything that destabilizes Western society is a benefit to them, especially if it’s in non-traditional, asymmetrical fronts that can’t be tied directly back to them so they can abuse plausible deniability. Chew and fray away the edges of society, and eventually it will unravel, and they’ll be there to…

You don’t have to worry about that; once the NHTSA is gutted, you’ll never hear about any unsafe cars again.

I didn’t respond, but I think the K-car/Neon suggestion has some merit. Similar time of economic agita and flag-waving jingoism.

Gaudy, gutless gas guzzler, at it’s “performance” prime in the 1980s but is now old and broken down, parked with sagging doors and flat tires in the front yard, longing for the glory days and believing some dipshit with more money than brains will come along and make you great again.

The House is already in R control, the Senate has been or is about to be called for them.  Congressional approval isn’t going to be a problem. 

Assuming there will be elections in 4 years. “You’ll never have to vote again!”

Perhaps Nissan being 16% of Mexico’s total light vehicle production had a small part in them laying off 20% their workforce yesterday?

Anyone slightly darker or less Republican driving around in a stolen car would be in jail immediately.

They’re relying on the same intelligent strategy and financial savvy that probably made them Musk fans and Cybertruck owners in the first place; dumb fucking luck and a system that allows them to take advantage of suckers stupider than they are.

I once had a local Uhaul rental that lasted about 6 hours (we were preparing to move and I drove a bunch of stuff to the charity shop a few blocks away from our house, total trip might have been 4 miles) that, when I returned, they wanted to charge me like $800 for mileage ($1/mile). I argued with them for 45 minutes…

Finally, DHL’s practice of chronic shipping delays pays off!

Trump, Dershowitz, Stone, Giuliani; all of them that make up the current crew of corrupt Republican assholes learned from the absolute chaos goblin master of legal nihilism, Roy Cohn. According to Roger Stone, Cohn’s “absolute goal was to die completely broke and owing millions to the IRS. He succeeded in that.”

“Have we arrived yet?”
