Tesla's main disruption will be opening the door for Dodges to be even more shoddily assembled, somehow

Geez it turns out I posted the Small Graveyard

they just found the Big Graveyard at Burbank Airport

https://twitter.com/grierhiggins/status/1020094160156540929?s=19

That's a lot of idled cars, some with really old/dirty plastic covers :shittypop:

I kinda wonder now if the tents on their completely revolutionary outdoor assembly line were originally bought to go over these.

The Tesla version would just be a bunch of people badly held together by gorilla glue tape kinda like a Human Centipede with the serial numbers filed off. Real manufacturers are going to look like a mix of Altered States and Tetsuo: The Iron Man.

the first job of the Space Force should be to shoot down that piece of poo poo

Wouldn't shooting it just change trajectory? Like, it ain't going to "drop" anywhere because it's in space.

edit: i am pro shooting it though, don't get that twisted.

I like that they managed to make a car that by all accounts does very well in crashes but it isn't constructed in a way that it can deal with some water.

Yeah but you know what'll happen is that it'll be blamed for Tesla going down the tubes and they'll be written off as poison.

okay, well, low key. but they enabled full debug logging in the kernel on their half-assed ubuntu port that runs everything, so now the ssds they use for the ecu/mcu are hitting their write limits and failing, permanently. meaning the entire system needs to be replaced, oh, and btw your odometer hasn't worked since poo poo failed, so be sure to note that on your insurance.

Thanks! I wasn't really aware at all of the grey market tesla stuff either, so that was fun insight to get

like it puts the whole insurance company issues with tesla into the realm of perfectly reasonable, which is a weird place to be mentally

So does the 500 mile battery come with a tow hitch to attach a trailer to it?


You see, the air ramps off the front of the truck and it goes in a straight line and misses the trailer.

probably a diesel generator inside that trailer
