(31,696 posts)Very cold winters, LONG distances, very few charging stations. No Teslas. One massive assclown drives a CyberDumpster.

(6,436 posts)windshields and the top of doors fly off at highway speeds. That would seem hazardous to other drivers. The writer said he found the quarter panels were also glued and can come off. He suspected that the adhesive doesn't adjust well to weather changes. But those rolling uglies are too expensive to be losing parts.

(130,377 posts)which looks like a big aluminum trash can. Regular Teslas, which have been around for 10 years or so, are pretty normal-looking and don't especially stand out, but the Cybertruck is an aesthetic blight.
I'm not impressed whatever it was

Let's see if the Tesla place does the same.

(12,998 posts)There has been one of those silver toasters riding around here in WNC. Not surprised with the amount of illegal FloriDUH immigrants (White Rich Republicans) that have a second and third home up here. Randi Rhodes says Fla is full of those damn things.
But about 6 weeks ago I needed to replace a 25 year old frig. Instead of regular white I chose one of the silver ones.
Now all I see in my kitchen is an ugly Musk contraption.
So I fill the outside with all the Local venue Shows of my fav artists. Shawn Mullins, Todd Snyder, and Jason Isbell. I gotta go out to a few more shows to Cover the Musk reminder, that otherwise I am damn glad to have upgraded my old ass fridge. And is quite, Energy efficient.

Eloon didn't make the Tesla. He invested in it and, like with Twitter, ruined it. As he is out to do to the country.
Where's the sheriff? Put this one man destruction derby in shackles so that he can't hurt more people.

Maybe only 1 Cybertruck...

(I think it was about coke when I first heard it) that its Gods way of telling you that you have too much money.
I do not have too much money, so I guess I am safe from a smiting.

(6,121 posts)There is a Tesla facility (maybe repair shop?). The unpaved parking area is filled up with the cars and lots of the Cybertrucks. Lots and lots of the cartoonish vehicles. It has all the charm of a shade tree mechanics shop. It is the largest collection of those ugly jalopies in one spot outside of a cargo ship bringing them here for wanna bee MAGAs and suck-ups.
Not sure what the appeal is but for some reason, Tesla cars and cyber trucks are not that rare in NW Florida.

Kind of represents the billionaires, one view, dont give a damn about any other line of sight, just stay the hell out of my way.

I have yet to see a Wankpanzer aka Incelmino aka Cryptoyota Incelica (thank you regnaD kciN) aka Swastikar here, but the other Swasticar models are available in France.
