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.

Oh. 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.

Those look kinda interesting. Would be cool to hack logitech steering wheel and pedals into it and drive it like regular car.

Retarded 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.

they're getting trashef and stolen the moment a brown "person" gets in one

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
>>
>>29084340
This 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.
>>
>>29084340
To 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.
>>
>>29084346
I'd be willing to pay more to avoid having some smelly brown person drive around terribly.

>>29084340
You 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.

>my eyes black out when I see sunlight too
lol, 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.
>>
>>29084340
i 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 minimum
Cheaper to drive my fucking Tahoe at 13mpg
>>
>>29086634
well you have to factor in the upfront cost of purchasing (or financing) your personal vehicle and the cost of parts, maintenance, fuel, and insurance.
>>
>>29083359
Don't have to give Somalians money and huff perfume/cologne your entire trip?

The logikek controller was probably the least retarded part of that whole fiasco

>least retarded
But still pretty retarded, all things considered.

>>29086693
I 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.
>>
>>29086693
Ok, 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.
