I’m so sure that this will happen…
of course they will, all their dealerships are burnt down
No it won’t. I’d never my money on anything supporting that fascist pig.
I ain’t buying that piece of shit if it offers blowjobs.
Right… My favorite “promise” so far was the Tesla SpaceX edition (with rocket boosters or microjets or some shit, IDK doesn’t make sense) and die-hard fans defending this PR stunt as “the car that might fly”.
Not my fucking house.
Everyone: Hey, I’ve seen this claim before! Elmo: What do you mean you’ve seen it? It’s brand new!
This is such obvious BS. Putting aside that Tesla are always making claims about self driving that they can’t deliver on, let’s just consider the basic logistics of doing this for any customer who lives more than about 300km from a Tesla factory (of which there are two IIRC, and one of those is in Austin and the other is in Fremont)…
How the fuck is the car going to recharge?
It’s not like it’s going to plug itself in, and there are no staff at Tesla supercharger stations as far as I’m aware. With the range on a typical Model S even getting to LA might be tough if it gets stuck in traffic. Fremont to LA is just under 600km if you’re lucky.
It’s not like it’s going to plug itself in
It could stop at Tesla “dealerships” along the way and have the staff plug them in, or have fancy robotic chargers at just those locations. Surely there are enough “dealerships” that this is feasible for most people.
Nah, there’s not that many. There’s large swaths of the US where you have to drive across multiple states to get to one, in part for legal restrictions on dealerships
Yeah, I contemplated this idea, but you’d need a network of dealerships all within no more than about 450km of each other. Actually, a lot less than that if you want to deliver something like a cybertruck this way. And Tesla just doesn’t have that kind of infrastructure, especially in the Midwest and South. And that means there’s no good way to get a car from Fremont or Austin to anywhere on the East Coast either. At best you could maybe make this work in California.
But also consider the scale of what you’re talking about. Generally you’re looking at selling thousands of cars per day for a successful production model. Can their dealerships handle charging thousands of cars per day?
I think you replied to the wrong comment, but I agree
Granted, if they could actually make this work, they could probably do the robotaxi thing or even get into logistics. That would make it easily worth it to build dispatch centers basically everywhere
That is, if they could make it work
I tacked it onto your comment because I was chiming in with my agreement on your disagreement, if that makes sense.
The thing about the robotaxi thing is that it only really works as metro level infrastructure. Once you start trying to do that at a level where your vehicles can traverse whole states, the costs balloon like crazy.
lol they can’t even drive from the factory to the parking lot in their fremont facility.
Gotta save that stock price somehow. Activate investor bullshit machine.
Worked just a couple of months ago. Doubt it will this time.
The “next year” promise of the year…
It’s irrelevant because I’m never buying anything that piece of shit touches.
Soon the only ones buying Teslas will be factory workers that are forced to in order to keep their jobs. The basically live on the factory floor, so it’s a pretty easy promise to fulfill.
kinda like elon would put a man on mars in 10 years back in 2011.
“It’s dirty. Why did you deliver it dirty?”
Riiiiiiiight
Add it to the list
Didn’t know that list.
Though, for all I hate the guy, there are a lot of misleading assertions in that list.
That guy is a) a relentless liar and b) absolutely insane Why would you say those things? Why contradict yourself at 20 days interval publicly?
