Tesla on this Day in History
This day in history: Tesla started a tour to promote their Model S Electric Car on this day in 2011. I believe this went better than the recent rollout of the hideously ugly Cybertruck. (This vehicle looks like a John DeLorean rejected concept design. I can see Robocop driving this though). #Cybertruck has been trending online since this rollout mainly because the "unbeakable" windows on the vehicle actually broke. Most Tesla vehicles look great though, but I have a hard time respecting them because they get millions (perhaps billions) in taxpayer money and subsidies, only to produce cars that only rich people can afford.
Of course, there have been many bad product rollouts: Google Glass, the Apple Newton, Windows Vista, Harley Davidson perfume, Microsoft's Zune and the Edsel come to mind.
