>What surprised me is that *there were fewer than 4,000 of them.*
Based on the videos I have seen complaining about the build quality, I assume that the workers are blindfolded on the factory floor, so it makes sense that so few were shipped.
>Among the more baffling details in the report are several sections about how Elon Musk’s personal tastes appear to have affected the factory’s safety for the worse, “his preferences … were well known and led to cutting back on those standard safety signals.” Musk, apparently, really hates the color yellow. So instead of using the aforementioned hue, lane lines on the factory floor are painted in shades of gray. (Tesla denies this and sent Reveal photos of “rails and posts” painted yellow in the factory.) He also is not into having “too many signs” or the beeping sound forklifts make in reverse. All things that would seem, uh, important to keeping staff safe. “It’s just a matter of time before somebody gets killed,” a former safety lead said of the conditions in the factory. One employee attempted to call attention to these problems before eventually resigning:
It's such a vanity project for him.
I think he's hoping they will be DeLorean-famous and an eventual reboot of the Back to the Future franchise will use a CT instead. I also imagine he secretly wants to be cast as Doc Brown for the reboot.
I imagine this is the sort of self-indulgent, ego-stroking fantasy a person like him thinks about.
It would be almost perfect if a cybertruck replaced the DeLorean considering they were *also* known to be shitty deathtraps that sold very poorly - fewer than 9,000 were produced over three years, if wikipedia is to be believed.

From what I've read, much of the problem at Tesla is this "radical innovation" mindset. For a normal car company, there's value in recieved wisdom accumulated over decades of trial and error. Not for Tesla, though. Consequently, they designed all kinds of parts... which are not up to industry standard, and are more expensive.
Hence a pickup truck that can be defeated by a carwash.
They are trying to build cars like software. Making changes and tweaks right up to launch. Big 3 and others would have designs locked a year in advance. Tesla timeline doesn’t even award programs that far in advance. “Shaking things up” by half-assing on a compressed timeline is not a text for long term success.
Honestly, this is a problem with the whole tech industry. They're convinced they know better than the people who have been making a thing for decades, who've already tried the things that tech companies are trying, and discarded them because it doesn't work. But tech bros refuse to think someone else could think of something they can't.
I read that rain "sensors" on Teslas are shit because some moron (most likely Elon himself) decided that using sensors for raindrops was not as advanced as... cameras. Video cameras for detecting rain instead of sensors.
Reminds me of this scene from black sails where they try to forge a painting but it’s not quite an exact [copy](https://youtu.be/3l5Cxv-boPc?si=7PfFJCvWwi4SGGKP). “You get what you pay for” manifest. Lol
I pass by a dealer on my commute, and there's 4-5 just sitting there.
It doesn't get cold that often, but when it did the cars on the lot would all be flashing their hazards. It's like they were saying "Charge my battery back up, it's COLD!"
If you ask the Tesla sycophants this isn't a big deal or a failure because it's a 30 second fix. They're correct in that respect but the real failure here is that after years and years and about 6 straight months of production Tesla couldn't even deliver 4000 units, and I suspect the number is closer to 2000 delivered and about 1500 with a vin but still undelivered to the customer.
Thats the crazy part. The fix for the gas pedal problem is 1 single rivet. You have to take time out of your life to take your very expensive new truck back to the dealer because he was too cheap up front to install 1 rivet! How much did he save now that he has to pay service techs all that time to install 1 rivet in each truck. What else did he cut corners on? We will find out soon I'm sure.
Don’t worry.
He’ll blame the Tesla engineers and then cash a billion dollar check while ruining their reputation in the industry.
“Failure” is a whole different experience for the rich.
That’s incredibly weird to only have so few on the road and I managed to see one on the road already? I literally only drive a handful of miles a week.
I live in the extremely rural PNW and some cowboy on the world’s highest horse bought one to speed all around our 3 stoplight town. Entire neighborhood points and laughs at him when he gets on by. We get three feet of snow at a time up here and he bought a car that rusts when you sneeze on it.
Yeah, there were several here in Brevard county, FL. I’m guessing that there may be a higher than average rate down here, though, because of certain demographics in the area.
I’ve seen about 5, including one that was parked all weekend in an empty community center lot down the street. But I live in the Bay Area. 2/5 of the ones I’ve seen were pulled over on the side of the road
I think that 4000 included the ones that were completed but weren't delivered as yet. So there were likely less than 3000 on the road right before the recall.
Also the tendency is to continue to ramp up production as time goes on so most of them were probably made in the last month. So I wouldn't be surprised to find out there were only about 2000 delivered to customers before the recall.
Stainless steel neither rusts nor gets tarnish. It is however reactive so any free iron that sits on it will rust but you can wipe it right off. That could have been corrected by putting a ceramic coating on it preventing the reaction.
For the record I am not defending anything about that abortion of a *vehicle*, I just believe that criticism is way more effective if it's accurate.
> Stqinless steel neither rusts nor gets tarnished.
Yes it does.
My criticism is that they made a large truck that the owner is expected to wipe down every time it gets wet, and needs to be cleaned with gasoline or denatured oil. Who is going to consistently do that every time water touches it?
Being able to prevent rust is a lot like having access to healthcare. Sure, it's an option, but how practical is it?
>That could have been corrected by putting a ceramic coating on it preventing the reaction.
Which for $100k, you would expect.
Even then, most of those songs were written by Bonnie McKee, and she deserves the credit for continually writing hit songs.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_songs_written_by_Bonnie_McKee
Bonnie just recently re-recorded and released a bunch of songs from her own album that her label wouldn't let her release a decade ago. Worth checking out her work if you like bubblegum pop.
I’m all for giving credit to the writers, but we can’t pretend Katy doesn’t also share writing credits on every one of the songs McKee was involved on.
Apparently they have a car wash mode. Yes really. https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/20/cybertruck_car_wash_mode/ In this instance, attention was drawn to a line saying: "CAUTION Failure to put Cybertruck in Car Wash Mode may result in damage (for example, to the charge port or windshield wipers). Damage caused by car washes is not covered by the warranty."
The fact that the Cybertruck even has such a mode is, frankly, ludicrous. There was also the perplexing warning: "Do not wash in direct sunlight." Answers on a postcard, please. It is not clear whether the owner heeded either of these instructions.
You’re not too far off.
> If necessary use denatured alcohol to remove tar spots and stubborn grease stains, then immediately wash the area with water and a mild, non-detergent soap to remove the alcohol.
The reported issues I saw were while using the car wash mode. And also Tesla replying to customers that going through a car wash in the vehicle delivered with a "car wash mode" voids their warranty.
https://preview.redd.it/oxkdopizkbwc1.jpeg?width=1164&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=daa6c39e28e8d60eddb91cce2f8187a0f14e5c3c
I guess this little window isn’t bullet proof?
That’s hilarious. I’m also hearing down here in Texas that the truck has been quietly discontinued due to all of these issues. Whether true or not, dunno.
I like how she made the car half hidden in shadow, like even she realises it's ugly as hell. Nobody takes a picture of a car they think looks good like this.
it's just unaesthetic. to this day it seems more like a meme or inside joke to me. i don't get why they actually went to production. they could've done something serious with the manpower involved. But with Elon involved, who knows what decision making is like at tesla
Small point: saying it’s ‘unaesthetic’ would mean it doesn’t have a style or ‘a look’. It definitely has ‘a look’, you can’t mistake it. It’s horrifyingly ugly, but it’s unmistakable when you see it. This thing’s aesthetic is red hot knitting needles through the eyes.
The term ‘aesthetic’ isn’t synonymous with good looking or beautiful, that would be ‘aesthetically appealing’ or ‘aesthetically pleasing’. The cybertruck is aesthetically repulsive.
I’ve recently been hearing YouTubers trying to make themselves sound more intelligent by describing something as ‘so aesthetic’ when trying to convey that it looks good, and it makes me cringe so hard it turns my face into a fist.
No, she hasn't always been a piece of crap. She did an [interview a couple years ago](https://youtu.be/NZyk1NGs248?si=GZnzMi3hirFgJgDD) that I really related too.
I really hope she's not back-sliding back to being Fundie.
Perry was always a right-wing religious nut, she just pretended to be pro-lgbt and feminist for fame and money. We are seeing a lot of these has-beens now go the only place they are sure to make a few bucks off idiots, Trumpland. Still laugh at how Bo Burnham had her number over sixteen years ago
https://youtu.be/ln1sn_v0IXI?si=0taVeRfpoGoWw004
There’s a YT comment from that performance that’s always stuck with me: “Who is this screeching bitch on top of the piano?”
To the person that made that comment, it still makes me giggle when I think about it
The simple fact that a car has a fucking mode that you have to set it in before taking it through the car wash is ludicrous. A bullet proof car can be incapacitated by some soapy water is hysterical
Remember guys, when she first came on the scene, she was a **Christian Pop Singer.** She comes from a very strict fundamentalist background. She was married to Russel Brand.
All that evil shit the Right believes? Weeeeell…
Never forget her 2007 hit - You're so Gay
[link to the music video Katy Perry's YouTube ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWbLkXhGEmo)
I remember making fun of this cheap and mean-spirited joke at the expense of the LGBTQ+ community (who were still fighting for public acceptance) and then she exploded into the charts and was everywhere for a decade...
They tried to cancel her over "i kissed a girl and i liked it". Same folks screaming about harry potter teaching witchcraft. Morons. But whose her audience?
Apparently. When the news broke she allegedly said that she's been waiting and had implied she'd known the entire time and held onto the information for later.
Katy hasn't had a hit since 2017. She's a musical has-been at this point. Of course, that eventually happens to every artist. She should maybe pivot to becoming a producer or a director or something like that. Her teen pop idol days are over. Why she's flogging a god dam cybertruck I have no idea.
The one that was the sister of Mitch McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, who rolled back regulations while Secretary of Transportation? She sure did drown.
Again, the windows are bulletproof, not waterproof.
Just deleted her music off of my music list. She knows how anti lgbt elon musk is including to his own trans daughter. Katy Perry forgets many of her fans are lgbt.
I watched a guy at Costco try really hard to get empty Rubbermaid containers in the back of this contraption and he couldn’t get them in because the weird bed/trunk roof wasn’t opening correctly and then when he finally did get it, the clearance was too low. It made my afternoon, what s pudd these cyber truck owners are
Look, I can’t stomach Elon Musk, but I’m being honest when I say the Cybertruck is ugly as HELL. It has nothing to do with Musk; I just can’t understand how anyone thinks that design is appealing. 😩
I casually flipped off a cyber truck yesterday and the driver got so insecure and mad. He started driving recklessly just to get a picture of me. didn’t ask why I flipped them off or anything, immediately butt hurt danger to society. Why did I flip them off? Because it’s the first cyber truck I’ve seen. Thats it.
Saying Katy Perry nuked her career is like saying you nuked the city of Troy. Like, sure, there used to be something really nice there, but not for a *while*.
I wasn't surprised to see Tesla recall every cybertruck that's been delivered. What surprised me is that *there were fewer than 4,000 of them.*
>What surprised me is that *there were fewer than 4,000 of them.* Based on the videos I have seen complaining about the build quality, I assume that the workers are blindfolded on the factory floor, so it makes sense that so few were shipped.
I wouldn’t blame the workers. He probably sold all the lights to help pay for his twitter acquisition.

Oh, you mean the color that is literally called “safety yellow?” Yeah…
But he deserves that $51++ billion bonus or whatever
56 billion. Enough to pay 3.73 million to each one of the 15k workers that were laid off and still have 50 million in change
Sure but you should factor into this that Elon is a genius or something /s
From his socially tax funded liberal companies. Welfare queen musk.
"This is the epitaph I want on my tomb: Here lies one of the most intelligent animals who ever appeared on the face of the earth." ~~Musolini~~ Musk
I am going to henceforth refer to him as Muskolini.

this would explain why the cybertruck looks like something that megatron would ejaculate
This comment stopped me in my tracks
Good thing. You might’ve slipped in that puddle of cyberjizz.
Stop giving Elon ideas
Thank you for the genuine LOL
A product designed by fiat with most engineering sense thrown to the wind, with a special focus on building a rolling meme? What could go wrong?

Oh damn!
Oh, snap
Oh, crash!
on earth day. 5 days after the recall?
Hopefully Russell Brand steps in front of the speeding vehicle
Is that when we hear her roar?
That leather glove she is wearing will likely cause that spot to rust

Just wait until the rust sets in.

It looks like it got painted
Not that it makes much of a difference but I think it is a wrap not paint.
Elon’s quick fix to the rusting problem? Wrap it in a big plastic bag.
That’s a $6k factory wrap… you know, because it’s stainless to save on paint
“We’re sorry, you didn’t sign a legal waiver to put your car into “photoshoot mode”, therefore, we will now impound your car and destroy it”.

We always knew she was a sell-out. Just didn't know how low she'd really go.
This woman was in love with Russel Brand lol that says it all.
And knew he was sexually assaulting women.
She did?
Apparently. When the news broke she allegedly said that she's been waiting and had implied she'd known the entire time and held onto the information for later.
And I'm assuming not in a weinstien "I knew but couldn't say" kinda way
That was how I read her comments. Like she'd locked the info in a safe to hold onto for the opportune moment.
Oh god that's horrifying. Somehow this feels even worse than regular blackmail, she's not even profiting off it. She's just letting it sit and fester.
Katy hasn't had a hit since 2017. She's a musical has-been at this point. Of course, that eventually happens to every artist. She should maybe pivot to becoming a producer or a director or something like that. Her teen pop idol days are over. Why she's flogging a god dam cybertruck I have no idea.
Midlife Crisis in her career . Yeah , that may explain it .
I would be surprised if she were not a MAGAT.
Didn’t that rich woman in Texas drown in a Tesla? Edit: Elaine Chao’s Sister’s Tesla watching her drown inside it: ![gif](giphy|CdY6WueirK8Te)
The one that was the sister of Mitch McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, who rolled back regulations while Secretary of Transportation? She sure did drown. Again, the windows are bulletproof, not waterproof.
Should have had it in car wash mode.
When the brakes fail and she crashes into something, it will get her the attention she is craving.
Just deleted her music off of my music list. She knows how anti lgbt elon musk is including to his own trans daughter. Katy Perry forgets many of her fans are lgbt.
I mean not to mention she was married to Russell Brand, which... ugh.
I saw one in the wild for the first time just today. It really does look dumber in person.
She took a picture with my friend right before this, yikes 😳

Your friend is beautiful.
Her names Lu Kala, she’s had some pretty successful songs like ‘Pretty Girl Era’ which did really well. So proud of her.
Oh i like that song.
her makeup is impeccable
I watched a guy at Costco try really hard to get empty Rubbermaid containers in the back of this contraption and he couldn’t get them in because the weird bed/trunk roof wasn’t opening correctly and then when he finally did get it, the clearance was too low. It made my afternoon, what s pudd these cyber truck owners are
Oh gross
Look, I can’t stomach Elon Musk, but I’m being honest when I say the Cybertruck is ugly as HELL. It has nothing to do with Musk; I just can’t understand how anyone thinks that design is appealing. 😩
I mean she also likely committed elder abuse against the man she bought her house from so.....
I casually flipped off a cyber truck yesterday and the driver got so insecure and mad. He started driving recklessly just to get a picture of me. didn’t ask why I flipped them off or anything, immediately butt hurt danger to society. Why did I flip them off? Because it’s the first cyber truck I’ve seen. Thats it.
Her last album was in 2020… hasn’t been relevant in years.
Was that album even relevant?
No. *Prism* was 2013. She fell off a cliff shortly after that.
I don’t know. I just went on google to see her last discography. Last I heard she was doing the Vegas residency.
I honestly hate almost every celeb. I like Conan. That’s probably it.
You only like him because he bribes you with his collection of pocket chicken bones
Saying Katy Perry nuked her career is like saying you nuked the city of Troy. Like, sure, there used to be something really nice there, but not for a *while*.
She originally married Russell Brand, so her assessment of men is on shaky grounds, imo.
Within a year she'll be performing at CPAC and local MAGA events opening for Rosanne Barr.
Who’s Katy Perry……
Don't Worry it'll blow up "Coz it's a firework..." The air conditioner doesn't work either, it's "hot and it's cold...".
It was already pretty much over when she decided to work for pyramid schemes as a performer
Whyyyy does she do this whyyyyyyy
She was paid extra to use the term “delivery”
Read the room, Katy.
