      The GPS voice is Hitler screaming and yelling directions at you in German

        Nah, they made the voice speak english with a German accent, but it keeps messing up the directions in roundabouts.

        For some reason the GPS gets confused when directing you to take the third exit in a roundabout and keeps saying: “Take the third reich”

        It also fixes many of the issues with the cyber truck. That one has paint, it hasn’t got the stupid unified headlight, which isn’t legal in most parts of the world, and it’s a more traditional shape which means it would be easier to manufacture.

        Until self-driving tech is good enough that you can safely not have a human behind the wheel it isn’t really anything other than a toy.

        As soon as you can remove humans from the equation you can have automated trucks, without even the capacity for a human driver, that’s where the real future is, not in owned vehicles that will always have, by definition, a driver in them anyway.

        VW means people’s car.

        That’s not wrong, but Volk is more nuanced than that. Think somewhere between folk and ethnicity, so it’s still fascist.

            In German spoken since the nazis used it as a propaganda term it has taken on a different connotation. The denotation of “Volk” may be “people” in some senses, but “Menschen” fits much better for most uses of people. “A people” is “ein Volk,” but “people” is most commonly used as the plural of “person,” which would be “Mensch.” “Volk” has an ethnic connotation, which the singular meaning of “people” has, but the plural does not.

      Oh man on the paint? That’s just rude.

      On a cyber truck or late model year…sure. But the ones that bought new before it was obvious how much of a shitheel Musk is…back when the Tesla stood apart as the electric car? Leave those guys alone. Or at least just inconvenience them by putting it on glass.
