Cybertruck has arrived in Europe.

I'm looking at evtol stocks.. Joby and Archer Aviation seem to be the furthest on development. Opinions?

now its up 95% 😂 Edit went up 125% and market was halted

so whats caused the 40% rise today?

Does anybody actually believe these were the guys responsible? Its all about as credible as that bear in the old joke about russians. KGB are told to find a rabbit, after 20min torture they have a bear who has confessed to being a rabbit.

Finnish transport union (akt) is now on full strike. Does not relate to Teslas swedish strike.. but relates to Tesla and EVs. Its a political strike against current government cuts to employees rights and will probably last 2 weeks. 2 days of strike and gas stations are running out of gas, and...

Unfortunately I have no way to change configs in current firmware. You'd have to downgrade a couple years back.

"The 0-50 km/h acceleration is in 4.9 seconds, and the 0-100km/h acceleration is yes." 😃

"Now the trade union IF Metall is easing the blockade that prevents workshops from handling electric car manufacturer Tesla's cars. Between February 19 and April 30, the union introduces a temporary dispensation so that cars that cannot be used can be repaired. This is reported by Swedish Radio...

Yeah, how do you even count that percentage? Y underbody is cast from 2-3 parts, model 3 welded from dozens, so are they 1 part or lots of parts? the whole metric is silly

Since IF Metal pays the 130% salary for those mechanics that are on strike, they must know exactly how many are on strike. They are not saying the precise number in public, to me that implies its less strikers than they would like. Of course Tesla also must know who shows up to work and who...

I drove it for 2 days, returned it and rented a model 3. Found the 3 much more spacious and altogether a fun car to drive.

Well that might be better. The one I had was a 2022 model. Still I doubt the car being that much better. Tight and cramped interior was a big issue for me. Felt like Volvo S60, big on the outside, cramped on the inside.

Heat pump gave up on my Model Y, and while waiting for parts I rented a Polestar 2. Meh. Car was just boring. Center console is so big that I almost felt claustrophobic. Nothing like a roomy tesla. Driving mechanics, boring, and in snow fwd was awful.. hard to get the car even moving from...

I wouldn't mind being on leave from work with 130% pay. it's actually amazing so few mechanics have chosen to strike. PAM, finnish trade union for people working in private service sectors, are organising a 2-day political strike in Finland. They will compensate everyone who strikes for 2 days...
