The touch screen in my car has been messed up for months. I sometimes can’t change the radio station. It’s still perfectly drivable.

It’s amazingly dumb to me that there are cars that are unusable if the touch screen breaks, and it’ll take months to fix.

Also I saw a cybertruck in the wild over the weekend and it looks like garbage, literally. My wife who doesn’t follow Tesla news at all and didn’t know what it was immediately said that it looks like a dumpster.

The truck doesn't operate long enough for thermals to be an issue lol.

I definitely play too many videogames because I am waiting for the model to load more detail as I get closer to the truck.

After doing a short stint in the auto electronic industry, I'm still amazed at how poorly the cybertrucks appear to be built at every turn. Literally been in one-off prototype cars with literally taped together wire harness that have better build quality and reliability than one of these things - I'd be so embarrassed to have my name anywhere near this thing, speaking as an angerneer.

Having dealt with Tesla managers for a sales project at a previous job, honestly, it's just as likely they could and just don't give a gently caress. I've never dealt with a more uncommunicative, entitled bunch of assholes. They give you no way to contact them, never answer ANY communications, don't even make a pretense of trying to act like you're not beneath them, and when THEY need something, they expect you to do it instantly (and then will ghost you for weeks when you follow up). I dealt with some huge assholes at that job, but they were uniquely (and consistently) bad. I expect the customer experience is the same.

Also my former boss was a huge Elon simp and would name drop him all the time - it was embarrassing, and I could tell thee Tesla managers thought he was pathetic. I was glad to get out of there.

It's not like tesla's going to be making enough to fill all the preorders before they cancel the product.


Edit: tesla claims that there's more than 2 million preorders. I expect less than 100,000 will ever be built.

I really want someone to ask Elon some real basic questions about Mars. Size, location, approximate gravity, etc. Can he find it in the night sky? Can he name the current active missions on the surface? In orbit?

lmao when Tesla did their first round of poaching - back in, like, 2013ish? 2014? - they took a ton of the worst managers and supervisors from my department and every last one of them was PRECISELY how you describe

This was in 2015/2016 so you may be on to something there!

You know they don't even have a human receptionist in their Fremont plant lobby? There's just a single computer that you're supposed to check in at, with no indication that the person you're there to meet actually knows you've arrived. You just kind of sit there and hope they didn't forget about you.

Also the parking sucks rear end - this seems like a minor thing, but when you're lugging around big, heavy office furniture samples that they requested to see, it's a huge deal. At the Fremont plant you either deal with the valet or hope for a parking spot, and at Palo Alto HQ? Ha haaaaaa, gently caress you, the tiny, tiny parking lot is ALWAYS full and the next closest overflow parking is literally a half mile away.
