More lies from a fraud

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago

lol right. tesla cars can't even tell the difference between a painting on a wall and the actual road.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 days ago

It's irrelevant because I'm never buying anything that piece of shit touches.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

I don't want to be caught dead driving one of those fucking nazimobiles. I would not take one even if it were free.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

lol they can’t even drive from the factory to the parking lot in their fremont facility.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

I ain't buying that piece of shit if it offers blowjobs.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Right... My favorite "promise" so far was the Tesla SpaceX edition (with rocket boosters or microjets or some shit, IDK doesn't make sense) and die-hard fans defending this PR stunt as "the car that might fly".

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

Next thing they’ll “say it will do your taxes and walk your dog”. Seriously this company is so unserious.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

... from the Tesla factory floor, through the ditches, crash through several loony tunes landscapes, over your neighbors' dogs, cats, pet turtles, children, and finally park inside of your house after crashing through your living room wall to add an additional car port you didn't know you needed! Here at Tesla, we insist cameras are superior in every way possible to LIDAR. Quality is significantly improved on object detection when paired with 3M MAXIMUM EXTREME Quality Blue Tape+ for a premium cost. Every new purchase comes with a free, permanently center dash mounted Hitl -I mean- Elon bobble head performing the awkward "throwing much love" gesture. 3M Blue tape non transferable upon sale of the vehicle. Tesla retains the rights to not be held responsible for any damages resulting in your choice of using personalized automated delivery. Void where prohibited, which is nowhere. CALL NOW!

No it won't. I'd never my money on anything supporting that fascist pig.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Bullshit.

FSD is getting people killed and somehow this same car will get any kind of “ok” to solo drive to someone’s home from the factory?

More promises by Muskrat that aren’t gonna happen.

Probably have a sales rep in the car to monitor the drive.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

kinda like elon would put a man on mars in 10 years back in 2011.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Is Joe Schmoe going to have to answer for his shitbox that just plowed through a school zone with an unusual number of speed bumps? Joe hasn't even met his vehicle yet and it's gonna be out there committing crimes potentially under his name.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

It could happen, provided the cars are remotely piloted by a bunch of Indians.

Aka they save on delivery costs and your new car racks up miles on your own dime before you even get to drive it.

[–] [email protected] 75 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

Imagine it gets into an accident lol.

Who gets charged?

If you thought insurance was expensive before....

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 week ago

"we planned for this edge case, and have programmed the vehicle to quickly leave the scene of any accident where a driver is not present. by accepting delivery (by purchasing a vehicle) you accept that all vehicles are sold as-is. tesla insurance customers get half-off repair claim deductibles for the first 7 days."

Yeah, no.

That would be true if any of this self driving shit actually existed, but it doesn't. Elmo lies. A lot. About everything. So this? He's just lying again .

Anytime Elon says anything about Tesla with a timeframe, you can guaran damn tee that it will not happen within that time frame.

Ah so more market manipulation… got it. Jesus I hate this douchebag.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yet another lie.

The shareholders should sue.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago

Tesla lost 6% of its value today so I'm sure Elmo felt compelled to find something to pull out of his ass.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He's always lied about the self-driving capabilities of the cars and promised timelines that have never held. Print this statement out and use it as toilet paper

You can tell because his mouth is moving.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Tesla will begin its roll out of its self-driving Robotaxi fleet in multiple US cities in the months to come, already taking appropriate regulatory steps in both California and Texas.

Anyone want to take bets on how many deaths/injuries will there be before they're pulled?

Infinite is valid all things considered.

MY new Tesla? Doubt it. Considering I'm unemployed due to this clown administration and I don't tend to upgrade much of anything, let alone a vehicle, unless/until the old one no longer functions.
