Go on any of the tesla subreddits and you'll see people applauding him for making a flying car for "only $250k" and saying they'll order one immediately.
While I wouldn't be surprised most are bots, it's likely there are real people among them as well.
They actually believe this is a product they're already producing.
Of course the same idiots who can't find a buyer for the piece of shit Cybertruck they spent $120k on are going to line up to spend double that on a "flying car" LOL
We're gonna see a lot of Elon fans dying in horrible electrical fires if this goes mainstream. Shit like this may work beautifully, at first. But people are absolutely terrible at maintaining their cars. There's a reason there are strict maintenance schedules and laws for helicopters and planes. Crashing into something is bad enough, but falling out of the sky adds a whole new dimension to your accident.
You will be unpleasantly surprised to learn most of those idiotic posts are from actual real-life human beings who support Elon Musk as the great white hope for America while also denouncing EVs and the infrastructure that would make EVs better supported.
They're literally fighting against supporting the imaginary electric vehicles they are shelling out $250k for. They're just really fucking stupid.
Flying cars are easy to build. There's millions on the road right now. A few of them get launched off bridges and overpasses every day. "Landing safely cars" are a lot more difficult.
Besides, musky didn't invent or build that "car" either. He just paid off the guys that did.
it also never occurred to them that this shit is almost certainly not street legal to drive either, and even if it was, the insurance, repair, and fuel costs would be insane.
I think a large part of it is that people can’t understand by Republicans support an admitted sexual predator. What do you think is wrong with them that causes this? Is their excuse for supporting a sexual predator that they falsely believe they will be better financially off?

Because your average Musk fanboy is as big an idiot as he is.
