lol right. tesla cars can't even tell the difference between a painting on a wall and the actual road.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago

No it won't. I'd never my money on anything supporting that fascist pig.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

That's awesome. It'll be next year before i get my tesla. Paying cash, in full, no lease. Leases are for scrubs.

I'll be expecting it to pull up in my driveway.

kinda like elon would put a man on mars in 10 years back in 2011.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago

Next thing they’ll “say it will do your taxes and walk your dog”. Seriously this company is so unserious.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

lol they can’t even drive from the factory to the parking lot in their fremont facility.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Bullshit.

FSD is getting people killed and somehow this same car will get any kind of “ok” to solo drive to someone’s home from the factory?

More promises by Muskrat that aren’t gonna happen.

Probably have a sales rep in the car to monitor the drive.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 12 hours ago

It's irrelevant because I'm never buying anything that piece of shit touches.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago

... from the Tesla factory floor, through the ditches, crash through several loony tunes landscapes, over your neighbors' dogs, cats, pet turtles, children, and finally park inside of your house after crashing through your living room wall to add an additional car port you didn't know you needed! Here at Tesla, we insist cameras are superior in every way possible to LIDAR. Quality is significantly improved on object detection when paired with 3M MAXIMUM EXTREME Quality Blue Tape+ for a premium cost. Every new purchase comes with a free, permanently center dash mounted Hitl -I mean- Elon bobble head performing the awkward "throwing much love" gesture. 3M Blue tape non transferable upon sale of the vehicle. Tesla retains the rights to not be held responsible for any damages resulting in your choice of using personalized automated delivery. Void where prohibited, which is nowhere. CALL NOW!

Is Joe Schmoe going to have to answer for his shitbox that just plowed through a school zone with an unusual number of speed bumps? Joe hasn't even met his vehicle yet and it's gonna be out there committing crimes potentially under his name.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 13 hours ago

I don't want to be caught dead driving one of those fucking nazimobiles. I would not take one even if it were free.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 16 hours ago

I ain't buying that piece of shit if it offers blowjobs.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 17 hours ago

'this year'

Sure, Elon. Lets get you back to bed.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 18 hours ago

LOL my Tesla? Nonono. The possibility of me ordering a Tesla would require so much leadership refactoring at Tesla, I'm confident this is no longer a possibility.

To put it more sussinctly:

Fuck off with this bullshit ad headline. I wouldn't touch these swasticars if they jerked me off nightly

... Even assuming the self driving tech was actually capable of doing this, which is won't be...

How would this even make any sense?

Ok, if you live within about 200 to 300 miles of a Tesla factory, ... you have this option?

Fremont, California; Sparks, Nevada; Austin, Texas; Buffalo, New York; Lathrop, California.

Outside of 250 miles ish of one of those places? No self driving delivery for you.

... And I am pretty surr not all models are made at all those locations.

Despite long ago claiming his EVs and charger network would be capable of automatically recharging or battery swapping themselves... to make a long distance journey... that ... doesn't exist, he abandoned all of that.

Even funnier: Imagine a tesla self driving from the as of yet to be completed gigafactory in Monterrey Mexico... through the border checkpoint.

The auto charger network doesn't exist, the car would murder people, cause an accident or fucking explode in the border queue... and even if none of that happened... how in the fuck is a self driving car gonna get through a militarized border crossing?

If he just gives himself a waiver via DOGE for his cars... congrats Elon, you are now a drug trafficker / arms smuggler, whether you know it or not.

... fucking lunacy.

He'll have a single car delivered this way, and there will be a Tesla robot in the driver's seat being puppeted by someone in the back seat of a Tahoe driving behind the car (they couldn't do actual remote because starlink doesn't cover the delivery area).

They'll then awkwardly film the whole thing, interview the overenthusiastic stooge they hired to "buy" the car, and fly the mission accomplished banner.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 22 hours ago

Not because of advancements in technology, but because of erosion of regulations.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

As if the far right folks will buy an electric car and Elon burned the bridges for buyers on the left.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

No, but the not as far right conservatives might. I have a cousin who bought one recently... I'm pretty sure it happened because of the Whitehouse yard sale Trump did with Musk.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 23 hours ago

I'm sure Elon musk would hit all of his timelines if it wasn't for the Democrats or Steven Miller

It’s one of those robots that’s just remote controlled by some guy in a call center.

Ah so more market manipulation… got it. Jesus I hate this douchebag.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Not if your home is not in USA, your new Tesla will have to pay Tariff and don't know how.

Why is the narrator always Ron Howard in my head?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 16 hours ago

It’s Morgan Freeman for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

Because these comments or their sentiment are usually in the style of Arrested Development

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

You will Nazi it coming.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But who's gonna fix your wall?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It does beg the question who pays the insurance until your get it the first time. I suspect you do though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 22 hours ago

Not only that, who will provide the cover.

It can drive itself straight to the dump
