'criticizing Musk for selling shares over the last few years, despite his asking for more voting control as part of the ongoing compensation vote. KoGuan also called Musk a “magician,” his supporters “brainless suckers,” and he referred to the proposed package as a “robbery attempt.” '

I wasn't sure where to post this, because it's a joke, but it's also based on the Cyber Truck, so behold, the Incelcamino...

It would sell very well if he made it. Looks like a Lamborghini. But probably beyond the reach of most Incels in their parents basement.
I think I prefer it to the silly truck.

Yeah, I thought it looked like a Countach. In capable hands I reckon it could be quite something but sadly Ken Block is no longer with us.

Easily done. Many certainly think the cybertruck was built with humour in mind.

“You can steal our name/logo & we probably won’t sue you.”.
Another money making lie?
Did you miss the word "probably" ?

I never until today realised the 'joke' with the Tesla models naming convention....
Compare the pricing and specifications of Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y to find the right Tesla for you.

Suggestions for naming the next ones?

Presumably the next 5 will be the 8 the E the A the 5 and the T (although they might have some issues with Ford on the last one).

"If Board members are unable to resist pressure to use illegal substances for fear of alienating the person they are obligated to supervise, one can hardly imagine they will stand up to Musk when corporate issues requiring Board input and oversight are at stake."

Not great to have a boss who appeared regularly off his head. More Trumpian stuff. Maybe he was off his head when he committed to buy Twitter. These days he suffers both lack of substance and maybe too much substance.

So it isn't a designed in flaw then? It is Larry Campbell saying his Tesla doesn't work properly.

I had a Vauxhall once, and the diesel engine blew after 112,000 miles. Should I have claimed 'built in obsolescence' or do things just have a lifespan? This whole article is based upon the experiences of two drivers. Do we seriously need just two cases of a thing happening to make it newsworthy, or do you just not like Elon Musk very much because he is stinking rich?

From the article... "Tesla claimed that the “car was flooded,” but Campbell said that never happened." Well, he would wouldn't he?

Lease companies are said to be abandoning Tesla. High repair costs and quite poor reliability it is said.
With 44% of UK Tesla sales being to hire and lease companies those long reported discounts will need to be increased much further to woo them back.
