Heavier (6,898 pounds compared to 5,540 for the F-150), lithium fire risk, inattentive drivers using the FSD

This is all on top of how dangerous American trucks have become to others

More importantly, Anderson has eight vehicles. GEICO is only choosing to terminate the insurance coverage from Cybertruck and is actively pursuing renewal of his vehicle coverage for the rest. This leaves no doubt that GEICO’s issue is directly related to the Tesla Cybertruck and not to Anderson or other factors.

Why would someone own 8 vehicles?

Robert added, “It makes no sense, as there are other, riskier cars out there. Let me know if you recommend any insurer for the truck. I have eight cars with an amazing record. I will be canceling my entire Geico policy!! Bye-bye!”

I can't think of a vehicle that is more likely to be a risk to others than the Cybertruck. I'm sure insurance adjusters see how people use Tesla FSD in spite of its shortcomings. The truck is heavy as hell and breaks in all sorts of ways others vehicles don't.

Man: "You can drive, it's free!" Caption: "Many people buy an SUV because they feel safer in a large car"

I am sorry that American vehicle culture has made its way into Europe

Es tut mir leid, dass die amerikanische Fahrzeugkultur ihren Weg nach Europa gefunden hat (Google Übersetzer, entschuldigen Sie die Ungenauigkeit)

Agreed, having a minimum speed sign on a stroad is just begging for pedestrian deaths. It would be such an obvious liability that nobody in charge of transportation would allow it.

I wonder if this might have more to do with Dealerships trying to steer customers away from EVs to maintain their main source of revenue in the maintenance department.

Nah, that's crazy. Obviously this business with a reputation for sleazy business practices just has a genuine interest in keeping the price of cars low for the customers benefit!

"Paley used that information to procure counterfeit license keys that enabled additional ports or functionality on the switches to be accessible to their clients."

This should not be considered a crime.

Sure, everyone that has a job that can be done from home should be permitted to do it from home if they want to.

What the best performers rhetoric is about is that these companies are harming their long term prospects by doing things like this, since the personnel that make the most money for the company are generally the ones that can easily leave for another company that will not treat them like a child that needs to be directly monitored.

Garmin chargers are hot garbage, even the official ones. It's always recommended to buy at least 2 at a time, since they break so quickly.

The puck style charges seem to be a little bit better, but I've had ones that only worked 1 time.

So Dell wants to do a layoff of sales staff, and is going to lose their best performers first.

None of these people look happy, even in their own group

I believe it's to protect the prongs from getting damaged during shipping - and if the container gets rained on or something, it could provide some protection from that

They have very nice penmanship
