Does anyone know what these gold Teslas are? I see them rolling around my neighborhood with out of state plates that say "MFG" on them. I took a few more frames in color.
RoboTaxi, they have no steering wheel so they're fully reliant on FSD.
brake light pattern
Its a cybertaxi no steering wheel no mirrors two seats Started this month in Austin>The fare for a ride in a Tesla Cybercab can vary, but initial pricing has been reported around $0.30 to $0.70 per mile
Another shot of brake light pattern>>29082907Oh. That is much gayer than I was hoping. I thought it was going to be some upcoming design for a porsche knockoff type thing.
Sorry gang, that's all the shots I have of it so far. I tried to post these a month ago but my internet was IP range blocked for about 3 months for some reason. Apparently it's all good now? There's no way Elon Musk personally lobbied gookmoot to suppress this.
>>29082931*3 weeks
>>29082901Those look kinda interesting. Would be cool to hack logitech steering wheel and pedals into it and drive it like regular car.
>>29082901>>29082903>>29082905what is that super pretentious camera you're using?
>>29083224He's in Austin, everything he does is pretentious.
>>29082901They’re being trialed in Texas. They’re all over Houston
Been seeing a few driving around denver with cali MFG plates too. Call me contrarian for /o/ but hope these are successful>no tips required>don't have to feign small talk >not some shitty kia with blown struts and 50 air fresheners hanging from the mirror>less gay than waymo
>>29082908Retarded as shit.No purpose other than to be "different"
Why do they only have two seats? Seems pretty useless for a common scenario like a family trip to the airport or anywhere else.
>>29083359they're getting trashef and stolen the moment a brown "person" gets in one
>>29083221Based. I like your thinking.
>>29083359>camera vision only because elon is a cheapskate (all other self driving cars also use lidar and other sensor systems)>get clapped by a semi truck hidden in heavy fognothing personnel kid
>>29082901>Obvious jeetshill is obvious
>>29083450yea no, lol.
>>29082901i'm in san antonio and first saw one a couple weeks ago and thought i was hallucinating. googled "2 door tesla model y" and "2 door ev" and etc and nothing came up so i thought maybe it was some chinese ev that came up from mexico. they look pretty sick i m o
>>29082901They are for brahmin class mudarfuckanot for little timmy but for Elon's finest works sar mudharahrbauhamaph
Anyone think these FSD cabs will replace The Browns?No taxies or Uber eats drivers needed Would be a good change to remove them from the roads
>>29084340This is great in theory, surely without having to pay to finance a whole person's life the cab and slop delivery services would get cheaper right? In theory yes, in practice the jews that own these ventures will shortly jack the price up and somehow they will become even more expensive than paying a brown so the jew owner class can stuff their pockets. We live in a hellworld of our own making.
>>29084340To add to this, id still look forward to getting retarded taxi and Uber drivers off the road, they're the biggest menace on the road in NYC. Maybe truggers will be next who knows.
>>29084346I'd be willing to pay more to avoid having some smelly brown person drive around terribly.
>>29082901Buy an ad
>>29084340You are thinking about this in the wrong direction. Browns are bio-weapons that are only introduced into settings and categories the Elite wish to take away from the commoner first, then hand off to a robot.
>>29083739>my eyes black out when I see sunlight toolol, it’s reversed
they should sell it as a regular car, call it the model 2 with the cheapest price in the lineup. i think there has been an over correction away from 2 seater cars.
>>29084340i think replacing the delivery driver is a little different than the ride share. it would require the restaurant/store employers going out to load the car and it would require the customer going out to the street to pick it up. that could be a problem if the customer is ordering something and they aren't home.i think it's also a question of whether the gig services would buy a fleet of these vehicles to replace the wages they currently pay to drivers, but then they would be trading the wage bill for the fleet maintenance costs. of course, they could also just contract with people who own self driving vehicles and then the driver could just send his robot car out in his place but i don't know if that changes their cost structure at all.
>>29082909>30¢ a mile minimumCheaper to drive my fucking Tahoe at 13mpg
>>29086634well you have to factor in the upfront cost of purchasing (or financing) your personal vehicle and the cost of parts, maintenance, fuel, and insurance.
>>29083359Don't have to give Somalians money and huff perfume/cologne your entire trip?Based
>>29083221>Would be cool to hack logitech steering wheel and pedals into it >>29083443>Based. I like your thinking.Be careful or you'll end up like the last guy who tried that...
>>29086752The logikek controller was probably the least retarded part of that whole fiasco
>>29086775>least retardedBut still pretty retarded, all things considered.
>>29086693I did. It's costed 28 cents a mile for the past 6 years. It would be more expensive to ride in the tesla, potentially devastating financially. Gas prices are a significant factor, my geo metro costed only 9 cents a mile. When you aren't comparing it to a truck, this cost is absurd.
>>29086693Ok, let's lease a mirage because I've done the math before. 350 a month for a 12k mile lease 2k due at signing ($6200). 12k miles at an average of 42mpg is 285.7 gallons of gas at a current price of $4 here ~($1200) and my insurance on a car this new would be ~$150 a month ($1800)$9200/12000mi = 76 cents a mile. Does the above sound like a financially stupid as fuck idea? Because it can be that expensive. 30 TO 70 cents a mile.
