Not only that, thousands of people reserved their chance to pay 40k (or much more, practically speaking, because it's even more poo poo as a whole with no options and because Tesla says they're losing money on the base model) literally a year in advance e: I'm convinced that somewhere, somehow, in the last several years there was a critical point where but for the "grace" of god, Elon would've been an even bigger Elizabeth Holmes emdash has issued a correction as of 22:14 on Jun 13, 2018 |

The Nastier Nate posted:Dosen't Tesla have like hundreds more times reservations then cars they can pump out? You have upper middle class yuppies throwing their money at Musk, begging him to take it and all he has to do is fill the order. It seems like this Tesla company may be bad at business and people getting laid off thanks to mismanagement and thanking the boss for it is just prime suck at a level I can't comprehend. And I'm a middle class white suburbanite from suck zone central. yes, Tesla is a huge ponzi scheme fueled entirely but Musk's uncanny ability to make investors think he knows anything

That Ipad has to be on and functioning for the car to do anything, including changing gears and OPENING THE loving DOORS. If you get in a crash and it breaks you can't get out of the car without the fire department using bolt cutters to sever some unmarked line in the back they don't tell you about and meanwhile you've burned to death.

Let alone stuff that someone who's serious about driving high end cars would care about, like RPM. Musk has never driven a car in his life. As I recall the early test drivers all complained about the lack of standard instrumentation in the dash and Musk threw a screaming fit about how they'd never miss it if they just gave the flat panel he'd kludged in a chance.

Remember when those Amazon web servers went down like a year ago and people were complaining that all of their Internet of Things devices couldn't be controlled, including a guy who got stuck with his oven on full power that couldn't be turned off? Teslas are that, but in car form.

Steve Jobs had at least a working understanding of what is physically possible, cared about actual product quality, and had the decency to devote most of his sociopathic power of self-delusion toward killing himself with juice cleanses.
