    Tesla recalls 321,000 U.S. vehicles over rear light issue

    Thank you. Don’t know what forum member repost giant stories, doubly so when the lede is buried deep in walls of text and essentially empty. ā€œTesla fixes minor glitch with OTA updateā€ doesn’t have quite the ring I guess. :rolleyes:

    Musk say's "Too much on my plate" [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    I think Musk believes a lot of his exaggerations. While he’s incredibly smart, he also tends to take his companies very very personally and when his pet projects are threatened he really takes it to heart. The factories burning billions comment wasn’t his fault though. Lots of people took that...

    Musk say's "Too much on my plate" [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    What would he be working on with the Cybertruck? Hand building prototypes? Helping pour the foundation for the Gigapress? Advising on installing the automated brakes for folding the exoskeleton? Writing the UI for the console? Musk is on the weekly production calls. He knows what’s going on...

    Musk say's "Too much on my plate" [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Musk’s big goals for 2023: Starship to Orbit FSD Wide Release He just transitioned operations at Starbase to Shotwell, and Starship did a 14 engine static fire test today. Solid chance we’ll see Starship in orbit this year. Raptor production was for a long time his biggest time drain. FSD...

    Musk say's "Too much on my plate" [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Do you have some link to this admission? What I saw was him saying he’s working 120 hours per week. That’s not the same as ā€œtoo much on my plateā€. Regardless, Cybertruck production is likely not blocked by Musk.

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    They produce 40% less than they did 4 years ago. It’s sort of like having your job tell you you are getting 40% fewer hours and a pay cut. ā€Things are fine!ā€

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Jeep sales have declined for 5 years running. I’d call that trouble. They are the lowest they’ve been since 2013.

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    I often self-identify as a redneck and would describe many of my friends as such. But… one of my most redneck acquaintances almost never left his yard. He bodged together a home built car for his wife which half-ass worked and could do all sorts of crazy contraptions… but adventurous...

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    At the moment it is still one company with 2 divisions. There is no way currently for them to sever the ties between them if the ICE ship goes down, their EV division is along for the ride. I just don’t know. 2026 wasn’t my number. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was that soon, but wouldnā€˜t bet...

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Agree. Not sure what the point is. Too much work to try and reverse engineer the nonsense so I just ignore it. Its one thing to misspell the words here and there, but deliberately obfuscating every single comment is ā€œignoreā€ worthy. I wouldn’t use the term ā€œRedneckā€ to describe someone as...

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Ford should spin off their EV division. Maybe they could IPO and raise a bit of cash and give ownership of the EV division to their retirement fund. People vastly underestimate how much time legacy auto has to get their ducks in a row. S curves are not forgiving and these companies are on the...

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    The kind of pickup truck a CEO who knows when to STFU makes. The kind of pickup truck someone who doesn’t give a fuck what other people think makes. Pick one.

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    A ā€œnormalā€ CEO would not have gone out on a ledge and created the Cybertruck. If you want a company without Musk at the helm, Rivian or the F150 is what you end up with. If you don’t like Musk’s antics and management style, there are companies out there making EVs which are not Tesla. They make...

    Am I the only person here who would like Elon to STFU? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Yes. But we get Musk how he is, not how we’d like him to be. Given the choice of Musk saying (or reposting) stupid things occasionally, and not having Musk. I’ll take Musk and his stupid Tweets every time.

    Elon Musk cuts Ukraine’s Starlink satellites

    The only thing more ridiculous that what Musk says on Twitter is what other people are willing to believe Musk does. No evidence. Just a pile of bullshit, but here people are totally willing to set aside all logic and objective thought and just jump onto the bandwagon.

    Elon Musk cuts Ukraine’s Starlink satellites

    There is typical hypocritical nonsense. If the actual expenses aren’t very high why would it be a big deal if SpaceX stopped funding it? People say SpaceX isn’t doing anything… then they complain that they want someone to pay for it. Need to make up their mind. If there is no value to what...

    Elon Musk cuts Ukraine’s Starlink satellites

    Someone is upset because SpaceX has only provided 1/8 of a billion in aid to Ukraine and would like to cut the rate of burn to something under $240 next year? People do realize that SpaceX is not profitable right now right?

    Rivian powers laser engraver at music festival

    I thought we knew the Rivian was pretty delicate already. I think one of the earlier off-roading videos showed the truck just brush against something and the panel collapsed. Much like the Ford, I think it’s aluminum to save weight. The F150 had pretty bad problems with denting early on, but I...
