    No way I will ever buy a car that is software first, can’t even fix or maintain them yourself.

    Dude’s practically shitting on himself and everything around him like some kind of horrifying lawn sprinkler of shit and his company only goes down 13%?!

      The decline came despite deep discounts, zero financing and other incentives

      And we’re only two years past “50% growth every year”, so that’s a huge difference from their forecast and despite them trying to fix it

      Why would anyone think any stats they get from these traitors are real? They lie about literally EVERYTHING. Even if the numbers were amazing, they’d sweeten them. Lying/ Cheating/ Stealing/ Corruption is their brand.

      Well, considering they have been caught buying their own cars to steal subsidies in Canada, who knows what those numbers even mean anymore? As long as it’s going down it’s on the right path.

      I know it’s disappointing. I guess European sales declines were off-set by increases in sales elsewhere.

      This is a company that is now immune to any federal investigation. Worth keeping that in mind when going over their numbers.

      In Canada they were clearly trying to fake sales to steal tax credits from the government. Canada froze their funds and told them to fuck off. The U.S. won’t stop Musk from faking sales to make it look better than it is. Guaranteed Musk is up to some fuckery.

      I assume that’s in the US only. The sames drop in Europe is far worse (40 to 80% depending on country) because they are less receptive to fascists than the US.

      I don’t think he believes that in his mind considering the people he associates with himself with. He wins…somehow.

        He absolutely wins. In 5 years his role will be forgotten or whitewashed and Tesla is just a car company again, and he’s worth a trillion at that point.

        And it’s still the best selling pickup truck… People who buy pickup EV don’t give a fuck about it being a poor truck. Truly wild times, I thought Ford would demolish them but they are so far behind its laughable.

          And it’s still the best selling pickup truck…

          What?

          They’ve sold like 47k total, and there was 10x that in Silverado sales in 2024 just in America…

          And they’re not even the best selling pickup truck in America.

          What metric are you using?

                Either your contextual reading skills are non existent or you didn’t read past the 1st sentence.

                  It would appear no one is siding with you, and only one person disagreed with me…

                  Likely you …

                  So I understand you think what you meant was clear, but it would seem no one else agrees…

                  So maybe, just maybe, it’s your fault

    Really? Only 13%?

    Maybe it’s a lagging indicator? Maybe sales in China picked up? Maybe the numbers have been finessed?

    Are you sure it’s not because the cybertruck is awful? Because I think it might be partly because the cybertruck is awful.
