    Elon, a grown ass child man dropping the hard R word. wtf

    Zero respect for this man child. And dropping the R word is probably the least offensive thing he has done. I lost respect for him a long time ago. I wouldn’t look his way if he wanted to stop and chat. What a wanker.

      hard R word

      Just a gentle reminder that the phrase “hard R” refers to an entirely different insult. Though, I wouldn’t be surprised if Elon used that word, too.

        Good engineers designed and worked on them. Elon might be a tool but that doesn’t mean everything in Tesla is bad.

          The Model S and 3 were great cars when they came out. They redefined what a car can be. Now they’re technologically stale because the rest of the industry has overtaken them in many areas. The Semi is by now an also-ran. The Cybertruck was always a crock of shit. Tesla could have done great things in the automotive space if they wanted to. Instead they concentrated on selling snake oil.

            I think the latest 3 and Y are quite good because Musk was distracted by cybertruck and space x.

            But they are getting left behind.

              They’re quite good but they’re not class leading like they used to be. They were way ahead of the competition but then threw that away for Musk’s pipe dreams.

          They may’ve been great when said engineers still had hands on them, but they were rapidly enshittified directly after leaving the womb.

          Unlike fElon, who’s been absolute shite since before his two gametes even met.

          I didn’t say everything about them is bad. I merely strongly disputed that they are “great cars”.

          Just one random anecdote: My colleague has a Tesla, and his trailer ball… thing… Whatever it’s called in English, came off during towing, while driving. The load was way under specification maximum weight.

          The whole thing underneath just let go of the rest of the car. Could’ve been a fatal accident for any vehicle near the event. I’ve never heard of that happening in my life lol. So many other problems with his car, too.
