It does please me to know that Cybertruck owners absolutely are seeing us pointing and laughing at them when they dare to drive those stupid things in the wild
i watched a cideo of a cybertruck stan complaining about the car and a huge chunk was him complaining about how everyone makes fun of him in public now on top of having to take it to the shop like 3 or 4 times in just the first month but then at the end he was like “still love the car tho”
I'm still just assuming that "Still love the Cybertruck and tesla" is at the very least an attempt to stop other Tesla fanatics from doxxing and sending them death threats.
Honestly hats off to that dude. He was making videos about how it was unsafe, and made a whole video about how he’d never test it on his finger because it was too unsafe, and then was like “fuck it I need to know”. I would not have done it but part of me relates.
this wasnt on camera but there is one dude who was picking up his CT and the sharp edges of one of the front panels cut his wrist open when he put his hand on the hood and i think he had to go to the hospital
Gotta signal that they’re “not a GM and oil shill or something” too, based on that latest thread.
They have such trouble separating “person disagrees with me about ugly and clumsy truck” from “they’re clearly a bot paid by the merchants of doubt.”
Bet I can predict their top YouTube subscriptions.
If that were true, someone would have said it just to get their truck taken away. Apparently, you're not allowed to sell it within a certain period of time without Tesla's permission. Imagine if you could just say the truck was rubbish to get rid of it.
Which truths people hold so dear that they will bend their perception of reality around to prevent those truths from being wrong says a lot about what they truly believe.
Today I saw one that was like “I fixed the charger being stuck by finding a cheap part of the car, ripping it off, and breaking a different part to eject the plug, still love it”
Oh so teaching car owners problem solving skills is bad, now? All cars should just hold the owners hand like little babies by being designed and built competently?
"No, you see Elon Musk is the only person to figure out how to make vehicles a non-depreciating asset. No, those aren't stains from water and guano, those are beauty marks. Yes, I have multiple offers pending, so act fast. No, it's only been recalled once. Yes, am I missing a finger."
there was a few weeks where people could sell at a profit but the price dropped FAST bc anyone who still somehow wants one realized it would just be smarter to wait for the cheaper model that would hopefully have some of the issues fixed (but not the foundational issues, pun intentioned)
That's how you know its a cult. You see it all the time in similar cult circles. Anything with even a hint of criticism has to include a big litany about "but I'm a huge fan and I pre-ordered the first version and I love it forever just asking a quick question don't worry!!!!"
Reminds me of letters to the Macintosh magazines back in the oughts. Boilerplate Love-Mac-hate-PC, preceding "how do I get it to stop doing things I don't want it to?"
If they don't conclude every whine with "still love my Tesla, tho" there's a non-zero chance that Elon will see it and order the IT monkeys to brick that guy's car.
