@Vawlkus@UnpluggedTesla it will take a lot of capital and expertise and partnership with Tesla. But I do believe unplugged will be able to pull in the money and former Tesla experts to make it happen. I believe the desire is there.
i’m totally open to the conversation do you want to have. I just don’t see what any other manufacturers done as a relevant metric for this.
Now when you talk about risks, I think there are many risks as to why Tesla might not want to do this. And if you want to go into those, let’s do it.
@EliBurton_@UnpluggedTesla Passing it along to a third-party isn't some technological advancement that Tesla needs to achieve, it's a risk on *many* levels. But it doesn't sound like that's what you want to hear, so I'll leave it at that.
@probablyoptimus@UnpluggedTesla if Tesla was planning on continuing to make the vehicle, I think the answer is absolutely not. But in this case, they are explicitly canceling it and going to tear down the line. They are going to effectively throw away everything they built for this product.
@probablyoptimus@UnpluggedTesla I don’t really wanna hear about what no other auto maker is done. Tesla has already done things. No other auto maker is done.
Elon has done all sorts of things. Nobody else is done. This would be no different.
@EliBurton_@UnpluggedTesla Respectfully, do you seriously believe Tesla would relinquish manufacturing of their most complicated vehicle to manufacture today to a third-party?
Can you provide examples where other auto manufacturers have done the same? It's extremely unlikely this would ever work out.
very deep weeds here, with lots of potholes and landmines. I would love to see it happen though.
Cybertruck is not a vehicle I would ever buy. but it does have a serious fan base, and I do believe a GEN two or GEN three with further development and the 500 mile + range would have a lot of practical value.
@bonnienorman@UnpluggedTesla it would be a huge undertaking. I can’t even imagine this size of the legal agreement that would be required. Because I presume this would involve them taking over warranty for existing sold cyber trucks. Which Tesla would have a financial obligation to.
@EliBurton_@UnpluggedTesla Lots of questions, not as simple as 'just build', there is a whole infrastructure required. Things like who would service? Handle recalls? What about warranty?
You could watch the news 24/7 & not know that:
Our planet’s at its hottest in 120,000 years.
Methane levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years.
CO2 levels their highest in 3 MILLION years.
We're in a climate crisis. Denying it won't solve the problem.
