If they were smart, Elon would be first.

If they were smart.
Interesting. I’m on the waitlist for the truck. Obviously there is demand for it. I don’t know if I’ll buy yet, but I haven’t been notified yet.
- Interesting. My dog is licking himself. I bet he is also thinking about chasing a model Y. I could be wrong. I don’t speak dog.
  
  You believe an article that says they are going to layyoff shifts when they have a backlog on the product ?
- Remove yourself from that list, some will advise you. Thank them later lol
  
  I’ve only see one so far. I don’t know anyone who has one yet. I’ll make the decision when they get to my name.
- Fair warning but whenever I see anyone driving a cyber truck I just see that person on their knees deep throating Elon like they're life depends on it.
  It's ugly, for your own good don't do it.
  
  Most of us just buy the truck and don’t trade favors for it
- When I see a Tesla driving I know the driver is a douchebag, but if I saw a cybertruck, oh man, I might even have to yell something to make fun of you.
  
  And it would mean nothing to me. Haters hate. That’s what they do.
- You shouldn't be getting down voted.
  
  Whether Musk is a cunt or not, you've made a reasonable contribution to the discussion at hand.
  
  Lemmy is going to become a very boring echo chamber if we downvote for no other reason than "I don't like that opinion".
  
  Edit: getting downvoted for wrong think. You should take a look at yourselves
  
  Yeah, I was surprised how many down votes both of you got. It's a straightforward contributory comment. You might not like the cyber truck, but that's no reason to down vote.
  
  Well you can tell by the numbers, many people are leaving because of bad moderation and the echo chamber mentality. I mistakenly thought this was a group to talk about electric cars which is a topic I am passionate about.
  
  Now to the topic, I can see layoffs or pauses on the y and 3 line. Not sure about the x or s line
  
  I cannot see layoffs on the cyber truck line as they have a backlog of several years. It would make zero business sense to disrupt that line.
  
  I do agree with Elon, interest rates are hurting sales. I also think Elon is hurting sales with his strange behavior. I also think some of the recent design choices were strange.
  
  I get about 280 miles per charge with my 3. I think they need to get about 500 to drive more sales.
  
  ETA: and thank you for trying to engage in a conversation instead of buzzwords and catch phrases. The only way lemmy survives is through interaction.
