Reading Tesla workers shared images from car cameras, including “scenes of intimacy” was enough to put me off Tesla. The build quality being garbage and Musk also being a garbage human being make the company just a complete waste of space.

I am hoping these end up as ICE vehicles. 🔒 🔥
Who wants to buy a vehicle that funds the fourth Reich?
It seems like there's a market for a company that will buy Teslas ultra cheap, modifies them heavily, then rebadges them like Alpine does for Renault, AMG does / did for Mercedes, Abarth for Fiat, etc.
These days those are all subsidiaries of the main brand, and even before that they had a cooperative relationship with the main brand. But, I can imagine a setup where the main brand doesn't support or approve of what the modifier company does.
I suggest the rebadged name should be Antifa.
Even better, Tesla and all other Musk businesses should be forced into bankruptcy.
Shouldn't a rebadged Tesla be an Edison?
Already taken.
Considering that they use DC internally Tesla was never a good name.
You got to be a special kind of asshole if you’re buying a Tesla these days.
Not only that, you sort of have to hate having money.
With the cyber trucks having shit glued on them all over the place the company just seems laughable.
If I'm putting down (potentially) luxury car money I better damned well have a luxury car.
Their Q1 sales were actually up over last year. It's insane.
The same kind of pieces of shit that still use Twitter.

The Sieg Heiling Space Karen genius could not have foreseen this. Is that right?
Remember when he told his advertisers to fuck off, and then two weeks later sued them because they fucked off? That's the depth of this man's genius!!!
From what Elon says to shareholders, Tesla is going to pivot to becoming a humanoid robot production company anyway, the cars are just a sideline. They axed two models when they announced that.
Tesla is a ~~car company~~
Tesla is a ~~battery company~~
Tesla is a robot company <---- you are here
Don’t forget when they were a roofing company, too.

One can hope at least
How did that happen? When I worked at the Fremont plant, we were only putting together vehicles that had already been sold. Did they swap from lean manufacturing to the normal, wasteful "just keep making shit perpetually" model? 🤔
They are cashing in production tax incentives and cooking the books. GM did the same thing 2008 before it all collapsed.
Elon was hoping everyone would just forget his antics.

Along with financial chicanery, the only part of GM that was profitable was GMAC. Their shitty cars are loss-leaders for a predatory finance operation.
He’s trying to wrap it all under SpaceX and walk away with a bag when it goes public.
I would rather walk than buy a tesla
Elon couldn't pay me to buy a Tesla. I like EVs. It's not about the technology. It's entirely about Elon. I'd rather buy Japanese or South Korean, thank you.
I'd rather buy a Chinese one, but mr Biden made that impossible.
i have a BYD here in Australia.
They're already sitting on them, they should finish the job and shove them right up their asses.
At this point i no longer care if they lower the price until they're free. They will have to sell them as scrap at a loss. I will never, ever, ever buy a Tesla.
Oh, don’t worry. He can just buy them from himself using taxpayer money via subsidies from his other company like he did last year. If you’re an American taxpayer, you’ve already bought one.
At one point I was considering buying a Tesla. Then I didn't like Musk, but felt I could justify buying a used Tesla, as it wasn't giving him any money.
Then Nazi salute and DOGE and lol, nope. I won't even uber a Tesla.

He'll still get money for the subscribable services scam and dealer service.
I will drive a free tesla
