Remember those million pre-orders Tesla allegedly had for the Cybertruck, according to CEO Elon Musk? It’s getting tougher and tougher for the company to explain where all of them went.
After putting around 50,000 Cybertrucks on the road, according to a recent recall filing, the company appears to be out of pre-orders and desperately looking to juice demand. Case in point: It’s now offering up to $10,000 off certain Cybertrucks it has in inventory.
Don’t they also lack fucking door handles to get out in an emergency quickly? Tesla and genuinely shit made cars, from start to finish.
I just hate the fact that liberals helped boost his wealth by buying his shit.
Liberals purchasing vehicles didn’t boost his wealth, stock speculation did that.
That speculation was fueled by liberals buying Teslas.
Let’s take this in a different order without changing ideas presented:
That pushed correlation == causation by labeling environmentally concerned people and people who like a post-petrol system as liberals. Not an accurate overlap, and inherently a bad-faith comparison …
… used to demonize ‘liberals’, whoever the fuck that villianized label means today
I’d assert no one on the planet said “I want Elon to be richer and so I will pay way more for this car” despite its - honestly when it had lidar - best positioning for one-day self-driving and raft of amazing features alongside those abjectly dumb decisions about door-handles and (now) frame concerns and other safety requirements.
I’d want to see some kind of justification to this accusation those mean librulz were conspiring primarily to make fElon richer .
Claiming this as a fact is just beggaring the question. And that’s what I hate.
They do have emergency handles underneath some paneling, but the defacto way of opening is a (touch) button
It’s not underneath anything, you pull up behind the handle in the door. It’s mechanical, so you can always get out. Not that you’d want to get in one in the first place.
