      Frigidaire. It’s a company that makes a lot of window-unit ACs and fridges and freezers and stuff. Stuff that makes air frigid. :)

    Man I really feel like I am part of the like 1% of people who think the cyber truck looks super cool. I understand it’s a POS but it just looks so cool to me. I would put bright yellow EL Wire on all the angles to make it more cyberpunk looking. God I wish this car and the company didn’t suck.

      Yep. I’d never buy it since that would support Tesla, and I would never buy because it has lots of issues. But I love how it looks. I wish some other company borrows the style and makes an actually good car with it.

      What makes them look really bad to me is the matte metal look. Very industrial kitchen.

      I’ve seen a glossy black one that looked kinda cool at night.

        I’m going to get my deposit back for the CT, I still think it’s cool but I don’t think it will ever be sold in Europe and Musk has just ruined the reputation of Tesla. I’m also looking for a home battery and although the Powerwall 3 looks great, I’m going to try and find an alternative, just because of Elon.

      Same here, I have always thought it looks neat and wanted one but it sucks that they’re made poorly and have so many issues. I really feel like a lot of people just hate on it cause it’s popular to do and elon bad (not that I’m a big elon fan) oh well

    I saw a Cybertruck in the wild for the first time last week. It was just as stupid as I had always dreamed. 🥹

            Yeah, it’s legal to purchase and own a Cybertruck in Europe.

            You just can’t legally drive it on public roads, because it hasn’t passed the safety tests.

            They haven’t even attempted, because it is evident that it will fail. So, they have not introduced the vehicle for sale in Europe

            If you see one, it’s probably a gimmick showcase thing. They did tour a demo model around for tv stations earlier this year, but I’m not sure what the purpose was. It was basically mocked everywhere it went.

            It’s possible and perfectly legal to import it yourself and then… put it in a garage or drive around your mansion all day long if you want.

    If that’s really on there, that’s fucking funny and I’m glad that person can laugh at themselves.

    Frigidaire makes trash HVAC equipment and the company is so poorly managed in surprised they don’t just call themselves Maytag at this point

      I love how much shade this throws at Maytag - the brand that will always be the best in the eyes of idiot boomers no matter how obviously trash they become.

      I just threw away a Frigidaire window unit that looked really cool but it barely worked after 2 years and they just deleted it from their smart control app - like straight up removed it as I was using it and was like “oh so sorry not supported anymore!”

      I own a microwave by them and I am looking to replace it now, even though it works reasonably well. Fuck Frigidaire right in their stupid fucking asses.

      Sounds like white labeling the cybertruck would be a great cultural fit for them.
