A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This thing was announced over 4 years ago. Tesla has been taking preorders for 4 years. It's a little late to change the agreement. Then again, I can't imagine ordering this thing 4 years ago and still wanting it after everything Elon has done.
Agreed. Especially considering how good (and available for purchase) the F150 Lightning is.
@Stillhart @dark_stang Also have you seen that stupid thing? siiiigh
I actually liked the looks 4 years ago when they announced it but by now I've kinda gotten bored of it. The design has aged even before the vehicle is out.
The f150 is huge, unnecessarily huge. But still better than this thing yes. I wish somebody would make an electric truck or ute the size of an old Ranger or S10.
@dark_stang yeah good call, at least the battery is reverse compatible for powering your home
Wild that the F150 is the biggest selling automobile in North America by a long shot. Would be great to at least get these folks off fossil fuels but...
I still can't believe what it looks like....... It's like a computer graphic from the early 90s.

When they first announced it I wondered why they were using such low-budget CGI concept art to promote it.
Like Max Headroom lol
I wont stand for besmirching Max like that.
