The outside handles are dumb as hell too. Like, sure, I know now to press in on the big part to pop out the handle, but it's such a lovely design. And then on top of that the handles are so poorly made they feel like they're liable to break off when you do open the door.

They also freeze over in the cold (especially with freezing rain) and unless you preheat the car for like a half hour good loving luck getting in.

Also, I hope you're plugged in for that half hour so you don't waste 50 miles of range on the heater so you can actually enter it.

Are they still doing that thing where they add 'heating' by just locking the heat pump motor in place and using it in a controlled-meltdown manner to provide heat to the cabin

Not quite what happened with the VW. The exhaust heat exchangers heated air that go into the cabin. The exhaust portion of the heat exchangers would crack or rust and then dump exhaust directly into the cabin.

Going to be 'interesting' to see the litigation against him for promissory estoppel based on this X post when he stiffs people and they inevitably lose because making an rear end out of yourself in public isn't protected in the workplace.

The only people getting in trouble for posting egregious poo poo are the biggest alt-right nutjobs and grifters, who will run to their lawyers to instigate some crap over the tiniest perceived slights against them.

And once they realize they won't get a single penny from X, the everything app, they will turn on Elon.

apparently he wants to help out the guy who said

In fact, while Hitler has become the great symbol of evil in history books, he too was less evil than Lenin because Hitler only targeted people he personally believed were harmful to society whereas Lenin targeted even those he himself did not believe were harmful in any way.

yea the exhaust headers right through or alongside them, simple convection heating basically, so any break between the two and you'd be breathing leaded carbon monoxide running the heater

its good poo poo in winter when the car's vac lines are hosed so the engine won't idle if the heats off

there was a car in the '50s I want to say an Alfa Romeo, maybe the '60s that had an oil pressure gauge in the cabin in the dashboard that was glass thermometer looking thing in the loop from the oil pump, circulating motor oil to show thee levels until it would break and then blast everyone in the car with 240f motor oil like a sprinkler

it's going to bring out the most insane people, all crying to him for protection.

given his history it's unlikely he'll follow through. maybe for one of them, just to say he did it once

for real tho unless he's explicitly building a neonazi protection company this makes no sense
