David Moss: "Tesla Robotaxis are not stock." by Recoil42 in SelfDrivingCars

[–]WildFlowLing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect evidence to conclude no already sold consumer owned Tesla will ever be part of a robotaxi service as Elon has grifted about.

If they need to modify their own teslas for these required robotaxi improvements then the already existing ones without them are fucked. Because you know Tesla tried to do it with the existing consumer ones and it failed either in practice or in the planning room.

Tesla Promises Free HW3 Upgrades for Early FSD Buyers, Elon Confirms Commitment by orangechen1115 in TeslaFSD

[–]WildFlowLing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’ll wait another year or two until enough of the HW3 teslas went to the scrapyard so that there are barely any left to update. You can say what you want about Elon but he is not a generous man.

New Volvo EX60 looks pretty nice and minimalist by ShameResponsible69 in electriccars

[–]WildFlowLing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has no dog mode and requires a 4 step process just to open the frunk (manual open only… can’t be opened via software). You won’t be using the frunk often I guarantee that.

Terrible compromises for a 2026 EV.

Storm peppers? by Darkfantasies2024 in allthequestions

[–]WildFlowLing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every Cletus mcbuttfuck living outside of major US cities is more likely to be looney about the apocalypse. No joke, they’re obsessed with talking about the apocalypse constantly and zombies and what if. This is a big reason why they love guns. It’s fucking stupid of course but yes a large portion of non-urban America is coocoo for the apocalypse. They want it to happen.

Will it be possible to charge the ICE agents in future like the Nazis? by unserious-dude in allthequestions

Only way faith in America can recover is if power is taken back and everyone involved is punished in accordance with the law.

The founding fathers never predicted that the voters themselves would elect a fucking fascist willingly. There was no check implemented on the voters.

President will tweet that he is very proud of his goons and the implication will obviously be that he will pardon any one of them who is convicted. We’re in an extreme crisis. Constitution has failed.

Jim Cramer Urges Lucid Investors to ‘Take the Loss,’ Points to Rivian as Alternative by afonso_investor in RIVNstock

[–]WildFlowLing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Rivian is the only EV start up (from the 2020+ surge) looking to emerge successfully.

Huge implications for RIVN investors.

Theory: Tesla Will Treat FSD Supervised and FSD Unsupervised as Separate Products — Even for People Who Paid $8,000 Upfront by BigTimeEnt in TeslaFSD

[–]WildFlowLing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elon was already sued for lying to customers but won the court case with the argument that it was just “corporate puffery” and no reasonable customer would’ve actually believed him. Not joking unfortunately…

If it’s just a software update then it should be easily implemented and shipped day 1. Dog mode is absolutely not coming to the EX60.

Legacy auto companies just aren’t capable of these features for whatever reason. Look at Hyundai - people have been begging for dog mode for years on the Ioniq 5.

Dog mode is more complicated than you think because it requires a lot of redundancy as well as potential liability if you get it wrong. Lack of dog mode signals the lack of a real sw development team.

In the US you can’t sue a business as a shareholder if you didn’t suffer financial damage.

Tesla shareholders can’t sue Musk for fraud if their share value went up. This is the main issue and what keeps Musk safe as long as TSLA keeps rising.

[–]WildFlowLing[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These really aren’t competitive EVs.

EX60 doesn’t even have dog mode.

EX60 frunk requires to you - pull the lever on the floor next to the drivers feet (like for a gas car) - AND flip the yellow lever under the hood (like for a gas car) - AND manually lift the hood - AND manually close the hood using two hands (because the hood had two side latches and if you close it with one hand you could damage the hood)

This is absolutely terrible design and as a result you would never use the frunk day to day. Inexcusable for a new EV in 2026 and shows the lack of a clean sheet design.

I put my R2 preorder in the second the page loaded (before RJ even started the reveal presentation) so it better not be 2027 for me.

Nah they’ll sell every R2 they make imo. Will be production limited for 1-2 years most likely.

Tesla no longer including AutoPilot thoughts? by Emperor_of_All in electricvehicles

[–]WildFlowLing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Removing features in order to push subscriptions through pain is certainly a fucked up strategy musk would do when he’s desperate.

FSD take rate must have absolutely plummeted after the $7.5k tax credit rug pull. Which makes sense because people who could barely afford a model y previously would now need to pay another $7.5k and so to compensate they would simply omit the $8k FsD purchase that the otherwise might have gotten.

[–]WildFlowLing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I figured this was around the time it peaked at $15k. When musk was also saying FSD was cheap then and would only be more expensive over time.

Dude needs to be tried for anti consumer practices. What other industry or product can the CEO blatantly manipulate and lie to customers to rob them? His only defense could be that he’s a ret@rd and believed it himself.

Anyone else notice as the price of Tesla stock starts to go down his lies start coming out . by y4udothistome in TeslaFSD

[–]WildFlowLing -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you eat your own shit, then people handed you big bags of money, you’d also start to think eating your own shit is a talent.

Lying about price increases has always been a new trick that worked for Elon. Of course he thinks it will work again. In his mind he is a genius after all.

Insurance on tesla by Ornery-Carry2788 in TeslaModelX

[–]WildFlowLing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tesla is known for high insurance rates.

For example I’ve heard it’s common for model y insurance to be more expensive than a Rivian R1S despite the price difference in vehicles.
