Just a friendly reminder, the age of the Internal Combustion Engine car is coming to an end. The technology exists, all that needs to be done is that the appropriate infrastructure needs to be built.
To all the "Gasoline Forever!" geezers, the tissues are next to the breadbox.
Oh boy, another quality tesla shitposting thread. They're neat cars. They made EVs cool. But why continue to make shitposting threads? There are several other boards literally designated for shitposting. Please leave us alone.

Why are the worms on the pole?

>all that needs to be done is that the appropriate infrastructure needs to be built. i hope you dont expect me to pay for it, since i will be using ICE vehicles until my left leg gives out
Alexander Butler
I dunno. Failed manifestation of nurgle?

>end of ICE >Can't produce numbers as promised
Xavier Anderson
inb4 tesla dies because they're a poorly run company
You are correct. INTERNAL combustion engines will go extinct Bring back external combustion engines.
Blake Jones
this triggers me
Hudson Morgan
because /g/ is a bunch of neets that hate car people
Isaac Butler
>The end of the ICE era Moore's law, batteries not included.
Jaxson Stewart
>end of the ICE era Nobody started crying about killing the EV1 until YEARS later Nobody bought the Leaf Nobody cared when the Bolt won CotY Nobody bought the Model X
ICE isn't going any where this generation.
Anthony Reed
its because tesla essentially applied tech industry marketing to cars, attracting the same kind of people who buy the latest tech products

Musk is a fucking autistic con artist getting paid
Hasnt built rocket that leaves orbit and arent 100% perfect landing Hasnt colonized mars yet Hasnt produced said ev's for the masses Now wants to do 18wheelers Wants money today to pay for your hamburger on tuesday 2020 fucking sports car Cant get shit done without subsidies Cant finish a single project just moves onto the next pitch to dazzle the enviro-libtards to makem forget he aint done nothin but spend money and build shitty cars that will be obsolite in 10 yrs
Austin Wood
Damn it. I wanted to say that
Cooper Smith
They fled the flood.
Michael Garcia
>Nobody bought the Leaf > any where
Joseph Hall
>Can't get shit done without subsidies
Funny, I'm pretty sure some of the largest major corporations in this country are still receiving subsidies for various things.
Tesla receives subsidies only indirectly through tax credits given to consumers. If those EV tax credits go away, it's not like people won't buy a Tesla.
Samuel Bailey
they definitely won't buy model 3s without subsidies
hell musk can't even make them like he said he could
Hunter Ward
wow how will musk respond to this???
Mason Gutierrez
>leaves orbit Achieves orbit.
Samuel Barnes
>Hasnt built rocket that leaves orbit and arent 100% perfect landing better than nasa and thats not tesla and not related to this board >Hasnt colonized mars yet neither has nasa and thats not tesla and not related to this board >Hasnt produced said ev's for the masses because he doesn't have the factory >Now wants to do 18wheelers because they are really profitable and tesla is a business not a charity >Wants money today to pay for your hamburger on tuesday 2020 fucking sports car fastest production car in the world at 200,000 its like you dont understand supply and demand >Cant get shit done without subsidies and neither can GM or ford needing $100 billion in bailouts for king nigger >Cant finish a single project just moves onto the next pitch to dazzle the enviro-libtards to makem forget he aint done nothin but spend money and build shitty cars that will be obsolite in 10 yrs autistic strawman with shit spelling
so bob tell me, how is that cadillac comeback working out
Justin Johnson
Tesla also receives 100s of million$ per year selling carbon credits, another government benefit.
Isaiah Davis
>all that needs to be done is that the appropriate infrastructure needs to be built. Which is exactly why it won't work. Do you have any idea of the kind of complete overhaul our electrical grid would need to support a 30% electric transport fleet, nevermind a 50 or 100% one?
>Global sales of the Nissan Leaf since introduction (2010-2017): almost 300K >North American sales of the Toyota Corolla in a single year (2015): 411K Yeah, not a lot of people bought Leafs. most of those sales were in countries that heavily subsidise them, too.
Lucas Clark
>If those EV tax credits go away, it's not like people won't buy a Tesla. Then why are 80% of Tesla's sold in the countries with heavy tax breaks for electric cars? Norway, Denmark, Switzerland and the Netherlands all have significantly higher sales because of the tax benefits.
Parker James
>Exxon/Shell CEO wakes up one day >"Enough of this electric meme" >Wipes out all electric cars by making renewable synthetic gasoline that results in net negative emissions
Lucas Parker
>better than nasa Show me were Tesla went to the moon. >neither has nasa Because NASA isn't setting overambitious goals to distract from car production issues. >because he doesn't have the factory Then what is that Gigafactory for? Just another promotional stunt? >fastest production car in the world at 200,000 Fastest? [citation needed] One trick pony, only fast in a straight line. Tesla hasn;t made a vehicle yet that will actually go around corners, as per American tradition. 200K? 250 actually, with a 50K up front deposit. If that doesn't scream Ponzi to you... >and neither can GM or ford needing $100 billion in bailouts for king nigger Pointing at other shitty US carmakers isn't going to solve the problem for Tesla.
>so bob tell me, how is that cadillac comeback working out Tesla lifetime production (2008-2017): just over 250K cars Cadillac CTS production (2010-2017): 255K cars
Cadillac total sales in 2017 (december not included): 141K cars Tesla total production target for 2017: 100K cars
Dominic Baker
hey man, you don't need to remind us. Have fun in your tesla. catch us on the toe-gay, enjoying the beauty of internal combustion until the last piston on this earth fires.
Nope I already called in another thread that he's going full delorean and that sooner or later the DEA is going to find fake lithium shipments full of heroin going to the gigafactory.
Josiah Phillips
Just YouTube "Tesla breakdown". Fucking hell. $120k for worse than German reliability. I sure want to be stranded in the middle of nowhere with no heat!
