Tesla’s secret team to suppress thousands of driving range complaints
reuters.com

From the article: "About a decade ago, Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters. The automaker last year became so inundated with driving-range complaints that it created a special team to cancel owners’ service appointments."

And no one was ever surprised, except for people stupid enough to buy anything from Muskmelon in the first place.

Musk is a great salesman and a terrible engineer.

That's honestly an insult to terrible engineers.

Musk is barely on par with a 9-year-old with crayons and construction paper.
