I wonder what prez musk will do when the insurance companies raise the rates for owning Teslsa products.
Even if that weren’t a part of the contract; do you think anyone wants to buy a Cyber Truck!?!
Insuring it will be an absolute nightmare. The insurance companies dont care if you bought it cheap.
I’m sure ya could find someone in Louisiana who would buy one, at the very least it’d be fun to shoot at a gun range.
Buy a ugly vehicle that looks like a third graders drawing to be seen. Now being seen is a liability. Too bad so sad… I’m not sad.

Whoa, I hate cybertrucks as much as the next guy, but that’s a bit harsh. You shouldn’t kill someone just for buying a vehicle.

The only thing more precious than human life: tires 🙄
property > people
that’s the entirety of conservative values
Yes, Cybertrucks kill pedestrians and cyclists at much higher rates than smaller cars, but that doesn’t mean we should kill CT owners for destroying our towns and cities
interesting choice of words. in multiple comments. did you get lost on your way to 4chan?
Isn’t lemmy a 4chan proxy
Bought the car just to get attention and you’re getting the attention. I don’t see the problem. You got exactly what you wanted. It’s a fuck ugly car that’s shit quality. You bought it just because you wanted to be noticed. Well, play dumb games, win dumb prizes.
Buy the ticket, take the ride

More like, idiots destroy our cities and towns with their giant wankpanzers and then they cry like babies when people fight back.
If you don’t want people to destroy your swatzicar then 1. don’t buy a nazi vehicle and 2. Don’t buy a truck with the highest traffic fatality rate of any vehicle. Your freedom of self expression ends where your choice kills other people
CT? Cunt Truck?
Child Thresher.

I have walked around New Orleans with my Computer Tomography and I’ve been fine.
Haha haha haha haha haha

From a purely legal perspective, I’m curious if the contract would hold up in court, considering there is a concerted campaign of vandalism against the cars.
iirc you can sell, but they will refuse you any future sales of cars
I could be misremembering, though
Nice they can avoid garbage cars in the future.
Sorry, no sympathy. I have some sympathy for the Tesla owners who bought theirs years ago before Musk went completely mask off. But Musk has been an overt Nazi since the first cybertruck was released. Do you know what you call an Apartheid baby that platforms and massively promotes Nazis in the name of “free speech” while censoring other voices (see ‘cis’ as a slur). You call them a Nazi. Musk has been dealing in overt racism, malignant transphobia, and eugenics for years now. If you simply didn’t care about this, and still gave that many $100k of your money? I’m sorry, but you just gave $100k to a man you knew was a Nazi. You’re a literal Nazi sympathizer. Or, at best, you’re a person who cares so little about fighting Nazis that you will willingly give the nation’s most prominent Nazi a hundred grand.
So yes, it is absolutely is fair to judge people who bought a cybertruck. They’re Nazi sympathizers. I don’t know if I would personally engage in such vandalism. But if I was on a jury with such a case before me, I would certainly be practicing jury nullification. Some paint or flat tires is a fraction of what a car like that deserves. That thing should be burned to ashes. That is what should really be done to Nazi symbols like the cybertruck. Here in 2025, if you are driving a cybertruck. There is no way for you to have that vehicle without having every chance in the world to see buying it directly supports Nazis. Every cybertruck is already a rolling swastika.

“property is more important than human lives.”

Yeah that’s exactly what I said
Enjoy your downvotes ad mod removals.
😱😱😱😂
This is actually a friend’s car. I haven’t commented on her post because it would be something like “I’m surprised my (model 3) hasn’t been vandalized but I wouldn’t blame the person who did it”.
I recently saw a model 3 with a bumper sticker that said “I bought this before Elon went crazy”
Might be worth the investment in the coming months lol.
I bought this before Elon went crazy
I wonder how many people actually mean that, and how many people use it to protect their nazimobile from damage. Because he went openly crazy 7 years ago this year as far as I’m concerned. This isn’t just a “since he owned Twitter” thing.
He started his descent but most people weren’t aware. Nobody isn’t aware now, and anyone that still defends him would rather complain about snowflakes than put that bumper sticker on their car.
Yeah, I knew something was wrong with Musk after the Thailand diver incident, but I didn’t know that Musk was a completely evil Nazi pos until he got involved in the 2024 election
Google search results on election night showed that hundreds of thousands of Americans didn’t know that Biden had dropped out of the election until they went to vote.
People are not nearly as informed as you think they are.
The CT first came out after he has already been crazy.
My car was debadged several years ago. I am putting BYD badges on it.
Nope.
They’re lucky the wrote on it using lipstick because stainless steel does not like bleach
I’m doing research on stainless steel art - what would you say is the most effective house appliance for staining it? Particularly the same stainless steel the swasticar is using.
Muriatic acid will etch and corrode stainless quite effectively.
You should wear gloves and glasses when messing with the stuff. Don’t breathe the fumes, they’re chlorine.
I would think that a small paintbrush with the acid in a plastic cup would work well for any slogans you might wish to write on sheets of stainless.
Muriatic acid
You can find this at most hardware or pool supply stores as well.
It’s 10 bucks a gallon where I’m at. That’s enough for the three cunt trucks I’ve seen and clean my driveway. We’ll at least oil stains.
Chemicals are often cheaper then you expect. A life lesson I guess.
If I was buying something, literally anything, and the people I am buying from make me sign a thing that said I couldn’t sell the thing I am buying for X period of time after buying it, that would be a major red flag to me that perhaps this product is actually a huge piece of shit because they’re already worried I will try to get rid of it within X amount of time.
It’s fairly common for limited run supercars and meant to dissuade scalpers. Still silly, but there’s precedent
i mean, anyone who buys a supercar is kinda inherently a dick
I can help confirm this. I want a super car but I’m too poor.
For a lot of people the only thing holding them back from being dicks sadly is not having too much money.
I want a 2008 Miata. A 4 cylinder manual with a couple hundred horsepower that doesn’t weigh very much and has a suspension someone thought about for a little while and a sticker price of $25 grand, and it’ll probably make better gas mileage than the old Buick Century I drive to the store today just on weight alone.
Like, if you said “2008 Miata, or a Pigani Zonda. Choose one and it’s yours for $25,000, but the terms are you have to own and drive it you can’t just sell it” I’m going for the Mazda.
Miata is extremely good taste. And getting parts for them seemingly will never be a challenge.
I want to try Lotus Elise at least once in my life
…i have a 2005 elise, a 2008 NC, and a 2017 ND: i try not to be a dick, but my wife says i drive like one…
That sounds like a wonderful collection.
How are they? I’m guessing they aren’t your daily driver?
Pretty easy and cheap to maintain for the most part, just don’t damage the body cuz that’s where it gets expensive and takes forever to replace, for example, the entire front half which is one piece.
Had one for two years. LOVED it. Highly recommend, tho a used Cayman may be a more practical and less worrisome alternative
Can you expand on the last sentence a bit? Why is Cayman more practical?
NA or ND.
What the hell kinda fourth-level, back-alley reasoning went into this?
Is it because the only people that can afford supercars are rich (i.e. “dicks”)? Or are you saying anyone who likes supercars is a dick?
i think we found someone who likes supercars and is a bit of a dick!
And what’s your reasoning for that?
that would be you defending people who buy supercars, and being a dick about it at the same time :)
If my not understanding and calling out the opaque calculations that turn “someone liking cool, fast machines” into a “dick” makes me a dick, then sure. Whatever.
I also don’t see how asking about one person’s rationale equates to “defending” another different group of people. But I guess questioning this rationale will make me a double-dick.
If you give me two more questionable statements, I can try to get the echidna before I get bored of this.
Yeah honestly I wish more products had laws like this. Or, actually, the rule should be you can’t sell it at a higher price within a certain time frame, because that’s a better indicator of scalping.
I’ve been wanting to buy one of the B580 GPU’s intel released, but as soon as there’s stock it immediately gets bought out and resold on amazon at a 150$ markup. I can’t think of any other rule that would effectively stop this behavior.
Nothing made me happier than the photos of BOXES AND BOXES of 20 series Nvidia cards just fucking stacked to the ceiling when the 30 series was released. Or maybe it was 30s when 40s were released. Either way. Get bent, L scalpers.
Makes sense any time supply is limited. Would be amazing for concert tickets for example.
It would have been nice if they had done that with PS5s or concert tickets. It’s less about being forced to keep a crappy item and more about not artificially inflating prices on it (by buying out the stock and reselling).
That argument would make sense if anybody was actually scalping swasticars, but they’re currently piling up and rusting away unsold. They really put the cart before the horse.
But what if it is a crappy car?
“Listen, I just need a crappy purple scion to make a reference to a Train song and I’ll have it back by this afternoon.”
Easy fix, get four signs and hang them in the windows on each side. Have it say "Elon Sux - I hate nazis - ~please don’t vandalize my car~ "
Good luck finding a buyer bozo
