The Iran war started end of February. Gas prices took a bit to register the hit. Consumers didn't really feel pain at the pump until April. That's Tesla's current quarter. I got 2 new model 3's. Carvana EV's disappears when they hit. GM used EV's sat 3 months, now 1 week. $TSLA

@DigitalDaisyX @Lord_Vader_MD Just bought 2 new model 3's, Pearl White and Ultra Red. I just added what the cost of putting PPF on, to the financial decision. Notoriously thin, soft paint because "Eco friendly" nonsense. Half the paint thickness of other leading brands. I don't WANT to spend $6K on plastic.

@Lord_Vader_MD Yeah good call. Swirls are more about how it’s washed than the car itself. It comes out pretty good once it’s done.

Have you tried Car Wash Mode? Tesla’s Car Wash Mode is one of those little features you don’t appreciate until you use it. It closes the windows, locks the charge port, disables wipers, and helps protect the cameras and sensors from getting confused while going through the wash. Just tap Car Wash Mode and let the car handle the prep.

@CybertruckTexan Love my new model 3, test drove a cybertruck. Ugly as hell, drives nice, but 2 things stopped me. That bed cover will SUCK when the snow and ice fill the travel rails. And they need to engineer allowing the bed to extend into the cab. Silverado EV RST does it nicely.

🤠 Just had an awesome meeting this morning with a group of old-school “truck guys” — hardcore veterans in the commercial truck equipment industry. Before the drive, they roasted the Cybertruck hard: “It’s stupid,” “Not a real truck,” “Ugly as hell,” all the usual complaints. Then they got in. After experiencing the insane acceleration, precise steer-by-wire handling, buttery air ride suspension, FSD, off-road capabilities, Toy Box features, versatile powered bed, and more… their minds were completely blown. By the end they were absolute believers. They admitted they were totally wrong and now I’m gonna have to explain to their wives why they suddenly need new Cybertrucks 😂⚡ Nothing beats converting “real” truck guys on the spot. Have you had a similar “I was wrong about the Cybertruck” moment with friends or coworkers? Share your story below 👇 #Cybertruck #Tesla #FSD #CybertruckTexan

@vikonomics101 @control_fiend Free tires and service? Tell me more!

@control_fiend Say you eat 1 rotisserie chicken per week to meet your prtein goals. So 52 chickens. Costco membership puts the cost at $6.30, which is still cheaper than any other place. Add on top the other savings you get - free tires and service, cheaper gas, cheaper items overall. So yes

is a costco membership worth it if all i get are the 4.99 usd rotisserie chickens asking for a friend

@GreenTexanEV lol. no.

EV drivers: Have you ever considered switching back to a gas car? Or are hooked on electric vehicles now? If you are thinking about switching, what are the reasons?

@otakara18 The shit tickets are hitting the fan.

これ、ことわざでなんて言うんだっけ？！

@wholemars I test drove one. Miles of dashboard. Rear wall doesn't open to bed. Mechanical bed covers like this are a nightmare in winter, I've had one on an F450. It's 1/10 the fun and looks of a model 3 for 65% more $. I'm sick of trucks.

The primary reason Tesla isn’t selling more Cybertrucks appears to be price

@DutchRojas Well, it absolutely prevented my wife from a horrible accident this weekend. In her brand new M3 Premium. It would have been a disaster, and it reacted quick and violently to avoid the smash.

I thought Tesla Full Self-Driving would make my commute easier. I did not expect it to expose me as the problem. Turns out I was not “driving defensively.” I was conducting a one-man municipal audit of every idiot within 300 yards. Someone going 40 in a 25? I had notes. Someone taking too long at a green light? I had a full theory of civilizational decline. Now the car drives and I just sit there like a reformed man. No high blood pressure. No death grip on the wheel. No courtroom monologue about lane discipline. My wife noticed immediately. She said, “You’re way more chill in the car, I like this!” That is when I realized Tesla didn’t just make the car drive itself. It made me stop narrating the collapse of society from the driver’s seat.

I may be new, but I bought 3 new Tesla M3 Premiums in the past 30 days and I hope @elonmusk @Tesla is listening.. Your thin and fragile premium "eco" paints are a $3k PPF "tax" MINIMUM to protect the coats of our girls, Pearl and Ruby. Resale drives retail.

@RupertLowe10 They would love too but, he's dead now.

We need prosecutions for what happened to Henry Nowak.

@DrewVento Does it still work like filling buckets?

We make your tax rate your body fat percentage

@BowTiedBroke @_danny_dinsmore Oh, a teenage bear.

Another happy family visiting Smoky Mtns, another 300 mile miserable ride home smelling bear sh*t/pee, sitting in 4 ripped up seats overlooking destroyed dash & half a steering wheel. Momma found food, but cubs shut door, trapping her inside. Couldn’t get out, went wild.

@BowTiedBroke Went wild?

@elonmusk Thanks for buying twitter. This week, I bought two new Model 3 premiums, for the wife and I. We're big fans, GREAT CARS!, and on board looking forward to your vision of the future.

I've been retired for 10 years now. Wow. Wow. I just bought a car because I WANT it, and WANT to drive it (or not drive it as this case may be) for the first time since I was 20 years old. That was an '81 Z28, and what a POS. Today it's a M3 Premium, and damn, I love this car.

I do a total body workout every other day. 3 hours. But I forgot about my neck and then bought a dual motor M3. EVERY time I nail it, my head snaps back against the seat. It's brutal. Need moar neck.

Just bought another new Tesla model 3. That's 3 new Tesla's in 3 weeks. Hello. My name is Barney Rubble, and I'm a Teslaholic.

@BowTiedBroke I've never ridden a llama, and they look slight to do miles and miles, but sure I'd give it a try.

Speaking of ROI, I’m thinking about buying some Llamas 🦙 and adding some “Hike with the Llamas” to my retreat center. On site, 700 private acres, miles and miles of hiking trails…with a Llama. Think it’d be a hit?

@PrometheanActn My first business was killed by outsourcing work to China. My 2nd business was killed by Covid policies. You don't hate government nearly enough.

Jamie Dimon, Mark Carney, and Tony Blair just started sounding exactly like Donald Trump. That's not a coincidence. It's surrender. When your enemies start using your language, you've already won the battle. Here's what they're scrambling to hide 👇

@Kacper_PK_CH What a beautiful and clean grow you have! It looks like a lot of prep, maintenance and heart went into this.

Happy about the strawberries this year. 🙂 🍓 🇩🇪
