Watch a Tesla owner blow up his Model S with 66 pounds of dynamite instead of paying $22,000 to repair it.
- He did strip it first.formed
- There’s a guy who worked out how to replace the cells on Tesla batteries so it would cost the full price. But Musk has tried to sue himPhanLo

Say what you will about the man, he knows how to shake things up. He could have made a body on frame truck like everyone else, and put a tough looking body on top of a ladder frame,
It would have been the easy thing to do. But instead he tried the more difficult thing: to reinvent the truck from a clean-sheet. He apparently looked to his experience with aerospace manufacture to build a stressed-skin structure similar to an airliner, a rocket, or a modern armoured personel carrier (wonder where those design lines and "bullet-proof" marketing come from?)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TP…It's weird looking. But it is fucking cool. From a design and engineering perspective, this is the stuff I love to see.
- this right hereYakuZoku
- agree. he's had the balls to do something different and has stuck to his guns.microkorg
- It looks like a truck from an 80's low budget scifi film where they welded sheets of metal on a van to make it look futuristic. Like all his ideas.PhanLo

- It’ll have issues in cold weather. People will lose fingers on those ridiculous no handle doors and the windshield wiper is Homer Simpson absurd._niko
- And the weight coupled with the sharp angles of the bulletproof frame and instead of crumpling and absorbing impacts it’s going to slice cars in half_niko
- But I do love the fuckyouery of it all_niko
- 'his experience with aerospace manufacture'
Jesus fucking Christ. He has money, that's his experience. Hust like he'll buy you a pony for writing this.face_melter - Agree. All other car brands just do stupid concepts that never see the light of day instead of having balls to do it.NBQ00

- Those head-on crash tests look a bit concerningwordssssss
- I think a proper unibody has zero structural contribution from the body panels. You wouldn’t use 1/8th inch thick stainless if not structural.monNom
- A typical body panel is 22ga steel which is about 1/4 the thickness of the cyber truck’s cladding. You just wouldn’t add that much weight for no reason.monNom
- And the cybertruck is the same weight as an aluminum bodied, steel framed F150 lightning. There must be something interesting going on to achieve that.monNom
- To be clear: I’m not a Tesla fanboy at all, nothing they’ve done before has really perked up my antenae. But this is cool.monNom

- TSLA to $100 shortlygrafician
- If you appraise it as a car company $30-40 per share is generous.jonny_quest_lives
- that's GM category @jonny_quest_lives. tesla is more like Ford so its destined to 10-20 :\ (nobody wants to see that lol)sted
- Life, Finds a Way!utopian
- Tesla is a lot more than a car company, though. It'll go a lot lower, but it'll come back way past anything GM or Ford will ever achieve.formed
- except for passenger cars there is no other revenue source, everything else saleable or not is just takes away profit instead of making it.sted
- its worth looking up how GM and Ford makes money.sted
- aaand Teslas outstanding shares count without the hype and/or outstanding profit makes it a slowly moving mammoth on the stockmarket, just like Ford.sted

Tesla Robot Attacked Engineer With Its Claws: Report
‘TRAIL OF BLOOD’A robot at Tesla allegedly attacked an engineer, stabbing its metal claws into his back and arm and leaving a “trail of blood” on the machinery, according to a 2021 injury report. The resurfaced incident comes amid new concerns over automated technology and reports of injuries in Tesla’s factories that have been allegedly swept under the rug.

The top reason that they are selling their cars and switching to a different brand is due to their issues with Tesla co-founder and CEO Elon Musk.
The disapproval of Elon Musk is the top reason Tesla Model 3 owners are selling their electric vehicles and going for another brand, according to a new survey of 5,000 Model 3 owners.
Since Musk acquired Twitter, the Tesla CEO has started to voice his political and social views more frequently, as well as share controversial conspiracy theories.This has resulted in a wave of people changing their minds about Musk, especially people on the left side of the American political spectrum. Many have suggested this has a negative impact on Tesla, which is intricately linked to Musk.

As I say man, you offer no value here.
I suppose Elon gets that rich people socialism you like so much.

- wait wait wait.... can you tell me the definition of woke?pango
- why do you need me to define woke? So you can build your counter-argument?hotroddy
- No, he was just asking a simple question that you can't answer.garbage
- Cuz I have a feeling your definition of woke is somewhat wishy-washy and can be anything you don't like. Lolpango
- Garbage, if I answer your next post will be that you didn't read it. Lol. That's your go to idiot move, so why would I reply to you?hotroddy

you dont get to yell 2 wrong dont make it right when you did the first wrong lol.pango - irans anti murican sentiment started when murican overthrew their democratic elected government it's not 2 wrong dont make it right but you reap what you sowpango

- it's like you lack any sense of empathy. like a sociopath.pango
- I persistently mention it, mistakenly believing that it will leave an imprint in your feeble mind.hotroddy
- but also bc u can't counter-argue. How can you counterargue confusing a pond for a lake? Or thinking defundthepolice is a good idea?hotroddy
- I'm reminding you for your own good. Also, the world would be a much better place if the Shah remained in power.hotroddy
- Iran was wealthy and pro-west. But since the Revolution, hundreds of thousands of highly skilled Iranians have emigrated.hotroddy
- I advise you not to mention your justification for a theocracy to any Irianian you encounter.hotroddy
- speaking of 'empathy' sounds like you have zero of it for the thousand of Iranians that were persecuted and killed (for being christian or jewish).hotroddy
- * not killed but persecuted, losing their businesses and culture forced to leave everything behind.hotroddy
- I do have sympathy for them but you reap the seeds you sow. 2 wrong dont have it right but person who did the first wrong had no say in what's right lol.pango

- that's talk about your understanding of woke. what is it? do you even know what it is? and you don't like is it because simply it represents the left?pango
- Rob Schneider overated! he was never that funny to begging with!pango
- Nice dodge, hotroddy. I actually do read responses to questions that I actually ask. And your answer that woke culture is something to benefit the rich..garbage

- You don't even have the most basic grasp of the things that drag you to an obscure website where nobody likes you.garbage
- it doesn't benefit the rich (ie people who produce unlike your sorry ass ) it only benefits the politicians.hotroddy
- which group doesn't benefit the politicians? tell me? cuz they can benefit from poor, mic class, and rich. which group doesn't politicians benefit from?pango
- what a childish response. it's clear from your behavior and comments on this forum that seek out approval and popularity from online strangershotroddy
- approval?!!?!? did you see how much i get shit on for pepper?!?!? lol approval my ass!
you're not very observant are you?pango - someone even try to ban me for that!pango
- which group doesn't benefit the politicians? tell me? cuz they can benefit from poor, mid class, and the rich. which group doesn't politicians benefit from?pango

Full Self Driving my ass. Tesla is for losers.

When Tesla's (+ other cars) cars become fully self driving... connected to the web... How soon until government, when it wants, locks the doors, changes the route, and drives you straight into confinement?
Just imagine a CCP like future, all cars are self driving cars, perhaps you don't own a car, it's all a giant taxi fleet - you are a jounralist/campaigner etc fighting some governmental Orwellian, you get in a car, set your destination and.. oh no, straight to a unmarked police torture chamber.

fisheye,
It's so funny you posted that. Last week, I heard someone comment on how dated the Tesla design is already. Once they said that, every time I saw one I couldn't unsee it. I've always been indifferent to them and probably enjoyed the interior and the digital UI than the outside, from the few times I've been in Uber's that were Teslas.
But now I find it crazy that they haven't redesigned the cars AT ALL. Every one on the road feels like a design that's a decade old.
- I guess everyone sees the UI part of the car, including me. I wonder what would be an outcome if the designer Lesnik from Mercedes Benz would be involved...fisheye
- ... this is exactly the vibe I would go forfisheye
- Wouldnt buy a tesla for the looks. Would be buying it for the supercharger network and associated tech.microkorg
- The electric Mercedes look like trash. A new tesla design is coming soon, there are leaked photos online.Frosty_spl
- @Frosty The point is elsewhere.fisheye
- Why would a redesign be needed? Just for the novelty? Innovation never sleeps?
Redesigning is just part of the market model.palimpsest - There are finally a few decent-looking EV's, but until recently the S was the nicest, by far, looking EV on the market.formed
- Tesla has been super smart - unique designs gives them a brand presence, even if most aren't that good looking (stll better than crap like the Mustang E).formed
- If sustainability is part of the brand a sustainable design is one that doesn't need to be updated every year.palimpsest
