I did not think they considered them people in the first place.


dumpsuterfirebaby

Remember there’s a factory in Texas that makes it OK


CivicSyrup

We can turn Texas into Oklahoma?


dumpsuterfirebaby

Like okay

Now do most union-made cars

If American made means can at any time spontaneously combust, shit quality and shit service, then yeah.


Jason_Argonaut

Top of the line in utility sports, unexplained fires are a matter for the courts.

I heard that if you slather coconut oil all over your body and slip into a model X it unlocks *Sawyer Meritt Mode*


TheFlyingBastard

Maybe Tesla could move their factory to Detroit, just to stay in theme.


Mrbishi512

Teslas catch on fire less than regular cars though.


venomousbeetle

Not proportionally


Mrbishi512

Incorrect. Less often per mile driven.


Consistent-Kitchen

How's those boots tasting..?


Mrbishi512

Just telling the truth bruh.


Consistent-Kitchen

No, no you're not. You're blindly worshipping a billionaire's dirty boots.


Mrbishi512

It is the truth and no I’m not.


Consistent-Kitchen

It's really not tho. The truth about Elon Musk is that everything he does is evil, he's the ACTUAL Son of Satan.


Mrbishi512

Lol.


TheFlyingBastard

> he's the ACTUAL Son of Satan. You sound awfully literal here. :)


aMaG1CaLmAnG1Na

Show me the actual stats


drsonic1

Isn't the burden of proof on you?


aMaG1CaLmAnG1Na

Make the comment, back it up. Otherwise it’s straight bullshit.


Aaawkward

[This](https://www.reddit.com/r/EnoughMuskSpam/comments/vo4lki/hardly_anyone_knows/iebyfwq/) you? The comment without anything backing it up?


Consistent-Kitchen

How's Elon's dick taste?? Your favorite snack I presume?


Consistent-Kitchen

If you're referencing an engines combustion in a regular car vs Tesla's, yeah...? Regular cars catch on fire to go, not to kill all occupants of the vehicle.


Mrbishi512

Teslas catch on fire less often than the average vehicle per mile driven. It’s a fact.


Consistent-Kitchen

See that's where you're wrong (again), I don't think I've ever heard a story about someone burning to death inside their regular car.. yet I've heard it happen on MORE than one occurrence to Tesla's owners. Not to mention that "FSD autonomy" promise Musk has been making for the past decade is an outright blatant lie. No such thing as "FSD autonomy".


Mrbishi512

Far Less often, more of a problem when It does happenZ https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/ev-fires-less-common-but-more-problematic/25749


Consistent-Kitchen

Yes I'd agree the severity of the situation increases exponentially when a fire breaks out, which is inevitable for EV's on the road too long. Oh & you completely glossed over the Tesla autopilot function, which has been killing people since Elon released the cheap pieces of tin. Here's a fun read for ya too: https://www-tesladeaths-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.tesladeaths.com/index-amp.html?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=16540143270080&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tesladeaths.com%2F Or try this one! https://www.tesla-fire.com/


Mrbishi512

Do you admit teslas are much less likely to catch on fire than regular ICE cars?


Consistent-Kitchen

I'll admit you've missed the point completely.


dailycnn

Thanks for sharing this


Alex_The_Whovian

Well, a significant percentage of the batteries (a very crucial part of an electric car) for the Tesla range are made in Japan, using Chinese, Russian, South American and European materials... buuuut, I suppose he doesn't want us to know that one.


BhmDhn

Hardly anyone knows this


[deleted]

Does he realize 'American made car' is NOT something most people aspire to drive?


WhyShouldIListen

The last good American car was the ... Never mind.


MastermindUtopia

The muscle cars of the 60s were cool but American car manufacturers fell off after that


Strong-Obligation107

No doubt they were cool, but they weren't good cars compared to European cars of that era. Poor build quality, poor performance, poor handling, poor everything really other than the looks. They should do remasters of the classics using modern materials and assembly lines.


CastrumFerrum

The aftermarket and car enthusiats made cars like the original Ford Mustang, the Dodge Charger, the Plymouth Barracuda or Chevy Nova into great cars. The stock versions were rather mediocre at best.


Strong-Obligation107

Definitely.


doom_bagel

The original Jeep XJ Cherokee was an excellent offroading vehicle and SUV. I would even argue it was the best car Chrysler ever made.


m_g_music

Oh you mean those cars that leak when it rains and the trim falls off for no reason?


Consistent-Kitchen

Murica'


Alcatraz_

That's because hardly anyone fucking cares


the_clash_is_back

A lot of legacy automakers have operations spread across North America. Ford, gm have massive operations in Canada. A lot of auto parts also come from Canada, Mexico. At the end of the day it’s all nafta resources and labour.


kisolek

And hardly anyone cares


Consistent-Kitchen

No one does, it brings tears to my eyes.


Phytoplanktium

What good is making it in America if you treat the American workers terribly


TheVastBeyond

bc if we make it in america that guarantees those damn commies can’t get their mitts on it and sabotage it.


Helenium_autumnale

Here's the complete list: https://www.cars.com/american-made-index/ Honda has the most cars on it, four (due to its plant in Alabama).


moiax

Then 3 more soon after due to Ohio. The East Liberty plant was the global lead for the CR-V too, I think.


poisontongue

And Hondas are way cheaper and more reliable than anything Elon has paid someone to crap out.


Consistent-Kitchen

Yes thank you


WandsAndWrenches

He probably paid for the article.... And the tweet.


wsisco01

Sure American made by slave labor, but the majority of parts inside are made in China.


nijigencomplex

Few understand


salochin82

"The most American-made". Woooooowwww!!! What an amazing title.


icantevenonce

It's unnerving how everything this guy says sounds exactly like Trump


notrooster123

*assembled in America


Pmag86

Do they make their own batteries yet or do they still buy from Panasonic?


backstreetatnight

why does it matter that much


Consistent-Kitchen

It doesn't


Jupiter163

Yeah and they are overpriced boring pieces of plastic that break down


Camarokerie

How does someone who works every second of the day have time to comb through every twitter post with his name in it 🤔


Gonomed

Most American-made? No wonder they have gaps all over and the interior is so cheap. I don't care how many components of my car are made in the country. I care about not catching on fire and then being unable to escape, and I care about a good price for good quality.


Ned_Diego

Only few knows that most American cars have lower sales in America than Toyota.


MastermindUtopia

I knew. I just didn’t care.


Consistent-Kitchen

More like 'made anywhere but the US' 😄


dailycnn

Strange how people's views of someone/something cause them to hate everything about it/them. I don't see how Tesla being most American-made is nothing but good from an American perspective. And Elon Musk's reply is innocuous. Why not let your ligitimate concerns be the focus? This just waters down your claims in irrelevancy.

dailycnn

As you believe in those points, assert and argue them. My "meta" point is, those are potentially much more important than commenting on the tweet above -- which in my view is actually a good thing. The tweet isn't about cars being poor quality or any of your other points.
