Lot of rich mofos in China.

I remember reading something like Rolls Royce sells the most cars in China market.....there's so many people and even if like 0.1% can afford it...that's still butt load of people

Trust me, most of Chinese people, the "middle class" so to speak CANNOT afford a Tesla.

hahah i figured that would eventually end up here.

I mean I'd give the guy a pass. it looks like he just got the car. I'd probably do the same out of habit

You would realize your stupidity when you see the charge port though, not pop the trunk.

Either this is fake or he had no idea it was an EV

Comfy

I find it hard to fathom that any sane person who is buying a brand new electric car wouldn’t know how to power it. Either he is faking it or he is drunk / under the influence.

nist7

Could be easily faked. Have a "stranger" film you from another car and upload it and you get the views and likes and go "viral" and then you can checkout their twitter/IG/YT/etc.

Mizouse

wait... wheres the rest of the video?

The guy looks around more and then eventually uses his phone in what appears to be using google to search how to gas up a Tesla. Then he does a big "oh fuck" and drives off.



And yes people are THAT stupid. That should be no surprise these days.

Damn.

How do people that stupid live that long....? You'd think Darwin would've taken care of them by that age.....

Someone find me a video of someone getting as much joy from of a vehicle's turning radius, tire pressure, or weight, as Jamie Foxx does from a Tesla's instant torque.

#1 STUNNA

P3D lap around the ring. seems like it doens't have the track package, but does have track mode

#1 STUNNA

but what about the turning radius, and the tire pressure, and the interior!?!? RRRRREEEEEEEEE

Go get 1? No one is trying to convince you otherwise...

Something must be really wrong with the cars if the two biggest proponents of the company couldn't even be bothered to own one.

I have a reservation for a Cybertruck

oonowindoo

Meh.. i have a reservation for a seat on the SpaceX....

SamDoe1

So? Buy a model 3 for the time being. Isn't the resale value stellar enough to keep the 3 for the 3ish years before the truck shows up?

Mizouse

kurtatx

Yes, because we're all swimming in money.

oonowindoo

You are not? i would think they should be by now with all the Tesla stock they bought so far.

SamDoe1

This.

Also, the truck is going to be a lot more than the Model 3.

Comfy

I got reserved for Cybertruck as well. I'm not buying model 3 because I'm not in the sedan market. I was planning on getting Y for next year, but cancelled since they wanted me to buy one now or cancel it. I don't like to be forced to buy something (by dealerships or manufacturers alike). Buying cars is not the only thing we do in life (especially in the Corona ravaged world, right now). The way the stocks are going up, I'd rather keep all my money there than stagnating in my garage. Having said that, if I ever "needed" to buy a car sooner than I was planning to (existing cars totaled or otherwise), it would be a Tesla, (since it's already paid for) fair enough...?

Or if I wait a few months I can sell my stock and buy 2 Teslas and enroll one fulltime in the robotaxi network

SamDoe1

Keep on waiting...

Comfy

Good things comes to those who wait.
Who knows, some of those detractors might change tune after the battery day.
Whatever happens, Tesla is a safe side to bet on.

SamDoe1

Things may also never come for those who wait.

Tomorrow never comes.

oonowindoo

with the way the world is, enjoy while you can and keep enough just in case we make it out alive... There is no guarantee either way.

Having a mountain of $$ at 70+ means little since you cannot even physically enjoy spending $$.... enjoy life while you physically can.

Now go get a Model Y.

#1 STUNNA

Rumors are that the 3 is getting the new features, and looks of the Y. Including powered trunk, chrome delete, heat pump. Also a new smaller frunk (to make room for the heat pump?), and head lights have been found. Also the Y has different tail lights now too.

Images of chrome delete, new headlights, tail lights, smaller frunk, and powered trunk are floating around. AFAIK no one has confirmed the heat pump in yet.

It makes sense to combine all these features, not just to improve the 3 but to reduce manufacturing complexity and eliminate parts. Most people prefer the chrome delete look and according to Sandy Munro it's cheaper to make

Mizouse

Yea the chrome delete would be nice. My friend did that to his. I also seent the model y with it.

Comfy

You’re probably right and I agree with that sentiment, but I’m enjoying my RDX right now too. (Didn’t you see my signature ). Why should I be in a hurry to replace something which I do enjoy having at the moment? Of course I shouldn’t hang on to it too long when it doesn’t make any sense. I just had my 80k service. I’m thinking I might hit 100k by next year and hopefully other things in life should also fall into its place. As I said, buying a new car is only one piece of the puzzle for me (not an absolute priority).
So let me enjoy my full cup of tea before I throw it away for a cappuccino. .

Cybertruck makes immensely more sense than Y because it’s so much more value for money.
I know, we all got into Acura and one of the main reasons being value for money in a luxury setting.

That’s why I do not lease cars at all and try to buy paying full cash and not take a loan if possible.

Every model y has chrome delete, it's standard now

Mizouse
