“New technology always has problems!”

I love how they conflate things. Yes, it’s true that there might be a potentially dangerous problem that could in theory happen in a car like a Toyota. No amount of checking the design, testing, etc can find every possible issue. But the Cybertruck’s horrible “insta-full throttle death machine” issue that was no doubt due to boneheaded design and inadequate testing.

And if Toyota made a similar level of fuck up - I bet they’d do something extraordinary like permanently recall all the vehicles in question and give the owners a huge refund. They wouldn’t want their brand to be associated with insta-full throttle death machines. But Elon has no media department at Tesla so it’s no biggie. I bet the Cybertruck is already ruining relationships and marriages. Imagine how things are after the owners have their trucks back.

“Cyber time! Ready to ride again? I can’t wait to out on a family outing again. It’s time to go to the beach. Dipshit Jr. and River - where are you?”

“Stop yelling. We’ll go to the beach. But in my car. And I told them we’ll go pretty soon but now right now. First of all - I won’t have my children riding around in that death machine.”

“But honey! New technology always has problems!”

“We need to talk.”
