That's fine. You can just turn on the self driving feature.

Even fans don't seem to be particularly happy with this launch. Range is a lot lower than expected, somewhere around 250 mi, and the price is a lot higher than people expected, $60,000 plus for the basic model, and if I saw correctly that one won't be out until supposedly 2025 or something. I am all in for the mocking.

as a few people have speculated something really does seem to happen to your brain when you spend so much of your life just pointing at a thing and immediately getting to have that thing. kinda fucked up that we've structured our entire society around capitalism and the dude who won the capitalism lottery turned into a miserable sack of shit who needs to be cranked out of his mind at all times― frogbs, Thursday, November 30, 2023 1:31 PM (two hours ago)

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences.

is $60000 the actual sticker price for the cheap version? there's something on there about the $7500 tax credit + "estimated gas savings" which makes me think the real price is more like $72000
― frogbs, Thursday, 30 November 2023 21:40 (five months ago) link
250 miles is the range without any load. If it’s anything like the ford then expect half that for anyone who actually uses it as a truck (lol).

oh wait ok $60k is the actual price it's just listed at $49k to trick people
― frogbs, Thursday, 30 November 2023 21:43 (five months ago) link
though it does say "estimated delivery price" and people probably aren't getting these for another 18 months so I'm assuming the price is gonna jump another $10k because that's what Tesla always does

The ceremony started with Musk driving the truck on a stage in darkness and hopping into the bed to talk about it.

Back in 2000 Fox had this dystopian Sci-Fi series with Jessica Alba & Michael Weatherly called Dark Angel (set in...2019), and instead of having a custom future car for Weatherly to drive, they had the genius idea to use new Azteks.

xps I used to work with a guy who used a wheelchair for whom the Aztec functioned well for getting himself and his chair in and out.

they look so normal by today's standards... headline of the accompanying article: The Pontiac Aztek: Who’s Laughing Now?
Universally panned and quickly discontinued, it’s clear that, almost 20 years on, the Aztek has made fools of us all.
