It really is a metaphor for the current state of America.
Between this and the door falling off a Boeing airplane, not so sure we should be all hot to make everything in 'merica 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tesla factories are like Amazon warehouses.
Worth noting that both of these companies have essentially blank checks from the government and use it as a funnel for taxpayers to shareholders who then dont pay taxes. It’s a Ponzi scheme that just happens to make airplanes and shit people actually need.
But are too scared to nationalize.
Boeing (and McDonnell Douglas before them) actually made good planes when engineers ran the show. Then, the finance bros took over.
That's because Tesla is a data collection company, not a car manufacturer 😂
Even the melted ones? 😄
It’s 18 months old and falling apart, literally.
This reminds me of "Clarke and Dawe - The Front Fell Off" skit XD
Amazing. :)
Every wankpanzer ever? I had to check it wasn't the onion. It's not the onion.
Here is a guy explaining the problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WldSl3HGr8
It appears multiple panels on the truck are just glued on which is crazy. Will Tesla just slather on bunch more glue and call it good? That seems like a bandaid over a pretty major problem. I'll be sure there is a large distance between my car and one of these shitty trucks on the road in case they decide to shed some large panels.
Glue is commonly used in vehicle manufacturing to bond panels together. It's typically stronger than welding, and is often used in the vehicle's structural pieces as well.
The problem with the Cyberdumpster is that they used shitty glue.
Staying away from cybertrucks is just good sense anyway. They're being driven by morons and are NOT safe to be in a collision with. S'why they're not road legal in the EU - they're too dangerous to things they collide with.
Small text on the bottom of purchase agreement: ~This vehicle is not meant to be used as transportation in an external environment, any use outside of a garage or small enclosed campus is outside of the scope of this vehicle's design and should be avoided.~
According to the article I read yesterday they are adding stronger glue and a bolt.

Waiting for trump to send off musk to death camp for being a terrorist.
I think the current power dynamic in the whitehouse may make the opposite more likely.
