Do you drive a Tesla? If so, go fuck yourself.

TBF, if I were Mitch McConnell's relative in any sense, my panicked last call would be from the womb, or the church where some dumbfuck from my family married into his.

Oh, and here's how you can get out of a Tesla in an emergency.



Not mentioned in the video is that those little hammers they sell to break car windows so you can get out don't work for the glass on most modern cars, and if you've decided to be a U-boat commander with your Tesla, you're going to need to break the windows to get out. Unless you want to wait until the car's almost completely filled with water.

Considering teslas might be drowning their owners, I think we all need to be worried that elon has released skynet and the first thing it is doing is taking out tesla owners. Well, maybe not so much worried as thankful considering Tesla owners are probably the most likely people to accidentally friendly fire you to death in some way.

Personally, I am happy our machine overlords have taken to killing the tesla owners. Could I also request them doing it to mercedes, Lexus, Genesis, Big old tonka truck, caddy, and any mid life crisis drivers out there. Oh, and anyone who removes or pokes holes in their muffler to make their car lous. Harley riders too. Also anyone with a Trump or Biden sticker on their car. If you want to start killing them, and maybe run over UA in the bike lane I could see how you have been a benefit to our society and give you some cool virtual hugs.

In other words I am very torn on the issue of tesla owners being killed by their machines.

Not even if it was free and I could sell it to someone else because I would probably get in trouble when it killed the elon cult member.

Exactly How Bulletproof Is The Cybertruck? Man With Lots Of Guns Finds Out
Not that it actually matters since none of the glass is bulletproof.

I think they need a control gfroup and we should have them send FF out to hold a pack of cigarettes like jack black in The Jackal. Which is the best use of the boy and jack black I know of.

So it is good to know as long as the Tesla chargintg stations work the Cybertruck will be somewhat safer in the apocalypse given it is somewhatr bullet resistant. I am sure everyone in the Elon cult will be kicking all of the rest of our asses with their overpriced POS when the apocalypse comes.

We're looking to possibly get an EV for my wife's next car, and Tesla's are totally off the list given all the recent nonsense.

That is good because I heard elon found out that everything spins the other way down under, so he made all the engineers make any Tesla's sold in australia rotate the opposite way to correct for physics. They tried to tell him it does not work that way, and he fired anyone who disagreed with him because elon is smrt.

Tesla Cars Lose Value Three Times Faster Than A Maserati, Study Says

Worth a snicker and maybe a smirk, but buying a car based on resale value is financial idiocy. I'm much more concerned about the long-term reliability and durability, which of course is sometimes reflected by how well a car holds it's value. I think part of the problem for Tesla is that a lot of people buy them as toys or trophies. It's kind of like having a swimming pool in Florida. Swimming pools do not add value; they simply reduce the pool of potential buyers to people who want a swimming pool, which is a distinct minority. I think we're still at the point where most people who want a Tesla and have the money want a new one.

I think one of the other problems with electric vehicles is time for the battery. In an ICE car you have a sweet spot where you can baby the car to keep it functioning in prime condition while maintaining it's life. With an electric car I think people see the battery as dying from day 1. With an ICE car that is an easy and cheap replacement, but with the EV it seems like replacing the battery is like doing the engine and transmission of an ICE car. I am thinking cost wise as an entire expense of the car. 5 years out what is the battery life really going to be like? We do not really have an honest and visible record to look at.

Thenm we have our knowledge of other batteries. After 3 years of constant use current rechargeable phone batteries and other rechargable batteries are shot. Yes, I am sure the car batteries are better, but I really do not know how much, and I am not buying a three year old used EV for a lot of money knowing that I am going to have to pull and replace the battery which will be comparable to buying a new car. If my transmission and my engine go in an ICE car it becomes a matter of junking it because the combined cost is just so large. It seems like that is the same way with the battery.

Tesla Didn’t Pay Any Federal Income Taxes for 5 Years, Got $1 Million Tax Refund

Sadly, that was actually an upgrade.

Here's an interesting study out of Canada about EV vs. ICE vehicles.

In the cheapest province, you would have to drive 46 km (28 miles for you cro-magnons) per day for 7 years just to break even on an EV vs. an ICE vehicle.

At multiple points in my life, I was doing more than that.

Truthfully, I don't think those kind of statistics are what drive car-buying decisions for most buyers.

OK, and now elmo is spying on all of us for the US government.

That is going to work out well for the future machine overlords.

Watch This Tesla Cybertruck Take Damage Crossing A Puddle

Best comment on the article:

Okay, so it might not have been entirely the fault of Tesla. Her BAC was .233. I don't know how you're still alive with a BAC that high.

And this is just the kind of shit you don't do if you're a big brand, hyping your latest product.

That's like Intel using Apple machines to make their chips in the 90s, because they were more reliable than Windows.

That finish looks like absolute shit.
