This has to be a joke. 🫢
What even is the complaint? Does he want it to still be warm from the factory? He’s getting a piece of shit either way, I don’t see why he cares if it’s 4 months or 4 days.
Apparently, January was before they identified some of the production issues that led to recalls and so on. And also that Tesla has done a bad job with the recalls so even the “fixed” ones have misaligned panels and so forth.
Why anyone still has any interest at all in buying this piece of shit eludes me.
A piece of shit that’s been sitting out in the sun for 4 months is likely to be more solid than a fresh one. But it’s also likely to be more brittle.
The windshield is likely to crack while parked in the heat of the sun, the panel glue will also fail in the heat of the sun, and don’t get it wet, the doors don’t have any drain holes for water…
You know how windshields have this dotted pattern along the edge?
That is not there for style, that is there to make the glass heat up more evenly in sunlight, which in turn prevents temperature expansion and spontaneous cracking.
The Cybertruck does not have that…
They don’t have that? Oo
That’s like car building 101. Even I’m aware what the purpose of the pattern is und I have absolutely nothing to do with cars.
Would be interesting to know, if they just cheaped out or if it was a deliberate design choice by ElmoYep! That’s why I mentioned it. Indeed, the Cyberdump doesn’t have that safety feature.
Batteries degrade in storage and theres an ongoing recall on older models.
Elon/Tesla/Cybertruck shit aside, if someone buying a car doesnt want old dealer stock thats up to them and making an issue of it is just poor business.
There’s plenty of people out there still driving and maintaining vehicles over 20 years old. Yes they require maintenance, but there’s no good reason for new vehicles to have potentially major maintenance/recalls within mere months.
I was in the trades for a while and there are absolutely people who would rather wait for 3 months for one fresh off the assembly line than have one next week thats been on the lot for 4 months recalls or not.
I don’t doubt you a bit. Those tend to be the sort of people with money to piss away and just want to brag about having the newest shiny thing on the block.
No sympathy for a willing supporter of fascism.
Cybertruck bullshit aside, if you want me to take a car thats 5 months old it had better be discounted, especially if theres an ongoing recall on older models.
All cars will be “old” like that unless you custom order one, which can take up to a year to be delivered.
Its less about the age of the car and more about getting one thats an old version that’s “fixed” vs getting a new one when you paid for a new one.
So they took old stock and “fixed” some of the recalls and sell as brand new. Customer wanted the newest version built with the fixes in place and no active recalls on it.
Tesla dealership being shady with the few sales they got.
