Thanks to poor engineering and Elon Musk, Tesla’s road rage-inducing street tank can’t even win over its core demographic: doomsday preppers
It can’t even survive a few inches of mud.
This was supposed to be the truck that would be driven on Mars. On Mars!
Might actually function better on mars. There’s no moisture, so it won’t get wet.
but the ground has alot of rocks.
Soft sand too I think. But since it only has 38% of earth’s gravity, the 3 ton Deplorean would probably work ok there.
I wouldn’t even trust it to hide behind as shelter from the weak Martian wind, let alone for transportation in a life threatening environment though.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nah, thanks. Already got an apocalypse-proof vehicle. 2004 F150. It’s only 2WD, but I haven’t managed to kill it no matter how much I abuse it. Plus, parts are plentiful and cheap. It’s the 9mm Glock of trucks. Ugly, works.
My first gen 4 runner is an absolute tank. The 22re is the greatest engine ever made. That thing is apocalypse proof for sure.
I’ve got a second-gen Prius. It just keeps going and going. I love that thing.
Fingers crossed there’s no off-roading or icy hills in the apocalypse.
I sold mine to get a bigger car when we had kids. That thing was solid though. Nothing but oil changes, brakes and tires the whole time I had it. No major issues and gas was basically free. Like $18 to fill it. I miss that thing sometimes.
lol with panels that are glued on
Maybe they meant it was proof of an oncoming apocalypse given how many people are actually buying and using a piece of shit swasticar?
maybe useful in slicing zombies in half.
You don’t need to fight zombies. Just hide for a week and they’ll dehydrate, rot, and die. Zombies in horror movies have infinite energy for some reason.
Last I saw they’ve only sold like 30,000-35,000 of the things. That’s not a heck of a lot considering that a car company generally needs to sell at least 50,000 to 100,000 to be profitable. That is what eventually killed SAAB. They never hit the 100,000 a year sold globally point.
They also seem to have 7000 to 8000 manufactured that have no buyers.
Sure, but it’s 30-35k more than they should’ve sold
