This. It won on volume and licensing. It’s exactly the same way VHS and IBM won out over Betamax and Apple decades ago.

The cognitive dissonance on display with that “you can’t not-advertise on my platform” lawsuit from a “free speech absolutist” is truly breathtaking.

Elon’s support of Donald The Felon causing Tesla sales to tank.... Yes Virginia, schadenfreude is the best emotion.

Didn't Elon fire the entire staff of the Supercharger engineers and marketers in one if his hissy-fits?

I will not be surprised when Musk starts suing people that canceled their orders because it violates his free speech rights to support an orange asshole.

those amount due at signing are huge! phew.

I could never put 5k down on a lease. 

Yup, and cut the roof off & fill it with soil to make the coolest planter ever.

I’m normally not one to suggest a vehicle lease over a purchase, but at this point in our transition to EVs, leasing might actually make the most sense. Battery technology is still rapidly evolving and with incentives being better for leases, it seems like a lease is a low risk and low cost (relatively) way to drive…

You can probably buy that Vinfast for like a couple of hundred bucks when the lease is up.

Ahem

That’s as close as he’s going to get to it.

He can’t even walk without looking like a douche. Heel, toe, heel, toe - look, mom, I’m walking!

“Hey Kamala - how are the couches in there?”

What a fucking weirdo.

This is exactly what a lame ass E4 mafia pogue would do for clout. As a veteran myself, I shy away from calling out veterans for their service, but when a single term enlistment pogue calls out a 24 year veteran, it’s fair game.

You’re asking for journalism, which doesn’t happen here.

Right - they are holding their sales targets and things are going as planned. Launching new models and updating existing models takes a lot of investment, which they forecasted for. Seems like things are going alright at Rivian.

“In fact, the automaker loses more than $32,000 on every car that rolls off the production line in Normal, Illinois, as Automotive News reports:”

I’m not driving my kids 45 minutes from there to learn to drive. I’m lucky I can just go to a big ass empty parking lot.
