I hope Musky can hear how much I just don’t fucking care if Tesla fails.

If I could have the engineering and enterprise acumen and portfolio and cash he does I would love nothing more than to be called a loser. That’s winning to me!
I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would buy a car without Android auto or CarPlay lmao; you wanna pay for an internet connection in your car?
Not only can I not download a car, but now I can’t even download inside my car?
It’s $99/year. If you can afford a Tesla you can afford that. The software in the car is damn good.
If shutdowns were planned, why were those not baked into the market estimates?

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Oct 2 (Reuters) - Tesla (TSLA.O) missed market estimates for third-quarter deliveries on Monday as planned upgrades at its factories to roll out a newer version of the Model 3 mass-market sedan forced production halts.
Some analysts believe the upgrades could spark a rebound in deliveries in the fourth quarter by allowing Tesla to refresh its line-up with models that could compete better with offerings from U.S. rivals such as Ford and BYD in China.
Deliveries of the updated and higher-priced Model 3 compact sedan are expected to start in the fourth quarter, while a Cybertruck launch event is also planned later this year.
Tesla has also been cutting prices aggressively to counter the effect of a slowing EV market, while fending off competition from upstarts and legacy players.
“They are going to keep the pressure up on their competitors,” said Thomas Martin, senior portfolio manager at Globalt Investments, which holds Tesla shares, adding the company could cut prices even further.
Meanwhile, electric-pickup maker Rivian Automotive (RIVN.O) reported third-quarter deliveries above analysts’ estimates and reaffirmed its annual production target of 52,000 vehicles.

oh no… anyway…
Not gonna feel sorry for them
I will never understand why a best-in-class, made-in-america car gets so much hate from Americans.
Because it’s lead by narcissist, antisemite, egomaniac.
You sure did your research on the rest of the infustry?
What’s an infustry?
If you’re going to cite antisemitism, please tell me you don’t own any of these…
- any Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep from the late 90s to the late 2000s
(Mercedes-Benz’ parent company partially owned Chrysler back then) - any Ford, Lincoln, Mercury or Merkur
(company started by Henry Ford) - Chrysler Crossfire, Dodge Charger, 2011-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee
(all built on Mercedes-Benz platforms) - Hino
- Sprinter
- Mercedes-Benz
- Mercedes-AMG
- Audi
- Bentley
- Lamborghini
- Seat
- Skoda
- Volkswagen
- BMW
- current-generation Toyota Supra
(made by BMW) - any Mini
(owned by BMW) - any Porsche
Volkswagen was literally started by the Third Reich and, along with Auto Union (then-parent of Audi), BMW, Ford, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, utilized slave labor during WWII.
Henry Ford received the highest civilian honor bestowed by the Third Reich, the Grand Cross of the German Eagle.
While we’re at it, make sure you don’t have anything from the Associated Press (censored for and collaborated with the Third Reich), Chase (sold war bonds for the Third Reich), Hugo Boss (slave labor and Propaganda materials), IBM (provided information processing for extermination of Jews) or Agfa / BASF / Bayer (came from IG Farben, makers of Zyklon B used to exterminate Jews in gas chambers).
Do I use any of the above? Yes. My work van was assembled by Ford Otosan of Turkey. I have an upcoming trip insured by Allianz (provided insurance for concentration camp facilities and workers). I’m not the one objecting on the grounds of antisemitism, though.
I’ve never seen evidence of Elon Musk being an antisemite, but for the sake of discussion, let’s say it’s true. How many Jews have he or his enterprises exterminated?
Oh, and crush Hamas, people who properly exterminate Jews.

Because its terrifying to drop $50k on a car whose future is tied to someone who is so obviously unhinged. Many companies are led by weirdos, but its a real problem when you don’t know if your car is going to work right based on the whims of said weirdo.
Also, Musk has absolutely lied his ass off for years about the capability of the car.
I owned a 2018 Model 3 LR and it was nothing but trouble. I couldn’t even use the cruise control because it would randomly smash the brakes on the freeway, even when there were no other cars around. My door panel would catch on the other panels when it opened, causing a decent sized dent. The trunk leaked. They would do updates that moved everything around and suddenly you can’t find the screen that opened the glove box. But it did make fart sounds hurr durr.
No thanks.
You need a touchscreen to open the glovebox?
Because it’s not best in class and is made by nonunion labor? Honestly, even without the shitty dumbass owner, I’d never buy a Tesla because build quality and QA is shit tier.
Elon Musk is a fascist garbage person, and maybe most Americans actually give a fuck about that when deciding which brands should be supported and which shouldn’t be
Because at it’s most basic level it’s not a good car, they aren’t well made, maintenance is expensive, and Elon should not be supported.
Because it’s the in thing
on Redditin the Fediverse to hate Elon Musk.
