What would you have done differently?

What would you have done differently?

I see them all over, how can it be a flop

Make it look like a normal truck.

Not release the stupid fucking thing at all and address the build quality issues already present in their vehicles

lol ugly

a million people preordered but a tenth of them bought

I would've scrapped the abomination day one and liquidated the whole company.

Is that shit the greatest automobilist scam ever?
Not even joking.

Check out ANY EV used price, they are ALL shit

A porsche EV has the biggest value loss of any porsche

Make it look like a real truck, like a sci-fi version of the old Kaiser/AMC jeeps. Real industrial or military-looking design, not the gay ass minimalist "s-o-i futurism" aesthetic. Also don't make the whole frame out of fucking cast aluminum, lmao.

I'd take the tri motor model but swap 2 motors out for diesel motors each with a cartoonishly large smoke stack

The range under load is the real killer. What kind of "truck" has 100mi range when hauling? Also there is no tesla boat to haul with my tesla truck, very cringe

I wouldn't have made it look like something 4 year old Timmy draws when you tell him to draw space car. I never liked the design of it. I know others do.

I wouldn’t have done the nazi salute. Brand was destroyed. He also should have stayed out of politics. Just take the money, talk about colonizing space and mars, and stfu. People weren’t buying cars and trucks. They were buying Elon but he fucked up and got too cocky

What would you have done differently?

I would've made Elon's mom to abort.

Leasees and weekly trial. Those things are stacked up at the dealer where I live.

makes a car that's not road legal in the EU

why is it a heckin flop1!!

not make this, and finally make the second gen roadster. damn shame elon is having his midlife crisis right now.

Not even close since it actually made it to production

Make a truck that doesn't have 8 recalls in a year and a half.
Don't do a Nazi salute and spend all your time courting the Right when the Left is the base that primarily buys EVs.
Don't scam people by fucking with their odometers to screw them on warranty.
Don't charge like double the price of other similar EVs.

I think the cybertruck is shit but you're retarded if you buy a second hand electric car and Tesla doesn't make any money off second hand car sales so this is not a good metric.

What would you have done differently?

Make a 90's inspired light pickup truck

Elon doesn't give a shit about little faggots like you. He wants to be Emperor of Mars. Your petty problems and concerns are but a speck of dust on his great long South African cock. Why do you even think you matter to the God of Mars?

I am not saying anything about the technical capabilities, the build quality, etc. Because I don't know. Nor do I have an ax to grind against Tesla (I have their powerwall backing up my solar panels) or Elon Musk. I like the guy. But the cyber truck body looks like it was designed by a junior high school kid with a new ruler and no artistic ability or creativity.

I just checked because I'd get one for $30k, but shit man they've lost like zero value. They start at $72k new and the cheapest used one was OVER that.

Jesus Diaz

Oh.

What would you have done differently?

The 150 Lightening is a FANTASTIC electric truck for a working man.
Tesla should have STARTED from there and made an even BETTER truck.

Paint

Also it looks too clunky from many angles.

Maybe if it weren't completely hostile in every aspect of it's being I feel like it would've done better. If you're worried about slicing your fingers on the door then you're REALLY doing something wrong with that truck.

Not make a car meant for influencers/youtubers for a one-day "Wow!" factor and actually make it look some slick black cyberpunk instead of redditpunk

Melon went full retard mode and prioritized his politics over his company without realizing he's selling a product for mostly left-leaning people. If he had stayed as le heckin wholesome reddit mascot he was a few years ago, Tesla wouldn't be the dumpster fire it is now. Anyway I don't care about electric cars so I don't know what else he could've done differently, extremely fucking difficult to compete against the chinamen and their mega cheap stockpile of resources and materials, just mad he's now leaving his larp politician role with Dump and never implemented that one crypto card project that was rumored to be in the works a few months ago. Would've boosted my doge, ket, pepe, everything to the stratosphere. I'm so mad.

Don't you have to buy the thing first while it's still in development when you 'pre-order'? I have never pre-ordered anything because I'm not a fucking retard but I know that's how it works in the videogame industry at least.

keep my self out of politics

if I can't keep myself out of politics, I would at least pretend to align my politics with 95% of my customer base.
If I couldn't keep out of politics or align my politics with 95% of my customers, I would at the very least avoid going to their work and having my customers fired.

the guy is retarded. Literally a retard getting paid back for what he did to his customers. The funny part is he actually thinks people will forget about this at any time in the next 30 years. He's a fucking moron.

shut the whole faggot company down and cash out

I mean south park did an episode about it for chrisakes

at no point in the last 10 years did elon notice that liberals were buying his cars as a political statement? He honestly thought people were buying them for the great quality and fair price?

elon needs to go. He's far too stupid to be in charge of tesla.

officially flopped

oh thank god, someone is finally here to tell me how to think

Accept the liberals still drive their tesla and he opened his brand to an entire market that previously was extremely anti electric vehicle if you cannot peak beyond the veil and see what is really going on you do not belong in this website. Some broke fags crying on twitter who were never going to buy his cars is not his problem.

IIRC he originally touted the price as being in the $35K range. Then he jacked the base price to around $80K.

I like the look a lot, but I've read too much about the repair costs for Tesla vehicles. Oh, a chinkshit capacitor blew out on a board? That'll be $1500 after a three-month wait, and you can't buy it from any other source because the software on the board is copyrighted and no one else can duplicate it. (Actual board cost to manufacture: $10.)

90's inspired light pickup truck

everyone claims they want one and no one will actually buy it
And thats not entirely the consumers fault, it would be completely shit either A) emissions cucked to death or B) electric goy appliance
Either way it would weight 5000+ lb due to safety regs and have mandatory kill switch and dui detection so basically worthless

Don't you have to buy the thing first while it's still in development when you 'pre-order'?

No Tesla does those dumb $100 deposits or whatever to hold your place in line. Then you pay them the money to build it. Those small deposits many people had were prior to even knowing how much the truck would cost.

This is cool as hell. 100k cool, maybe for some. But not a good use of your money.

I suspect they're being leased or given away at absurdly low prices.
I saw one in a Bengali neighborhood the other day.

BYD the Great Magical BYD just cut its prices by 35% on cars already worth 8K they have absolutely no idea how to sell them anymore its over.

HE DIDNT DO AN INTENTIONAL NAZI SALUTE
FUCKTARD

I WOULDN'T BE MAD BUT IT WAS SEVERAL PEOPLE ITS NOT EVEN A NAZI SALUTE IT DOESN'T HAVE A STIFF ARM FORWARD

ASS
