Aka they save on delivery costs and your new car racks up miles on your own dime before you even get to drive it.
Imagine it gets into an accident lol.
Who gets charged?
If you thought insurance was expensive before....
"we planned for this edge case, and have programmed the vehicle to quickly leave the scene of any accident where a driver is not present. by accepting delivery (by purchasing a vehicle) you accept that all vehicles are sold as-is. tesla insurance customers get half-off repair claim deductibles for the first 7 days."
Surely it would be Tesla since you don't actually have possession of it, right? Right??

Yeah, no.
That would be true if any of this self driving shit actually existed, but it doesn't. Elmo lies. A lot. About everything. So this? He's just lying again .

And also, who doesn't want hundreds to thousand of miles put against your warranty.
Assuming there is any reality to this (big assumption), I assume you are looking at the distance to the nearest distribution center (so Tesla "Not a dealership for legal reasons"). So a lot closer to hundred than not.
Mostly because Factory->House requires a lot of automated charging technology. Whereas Factory->Truck->Dealership->House still lets them take advantage of scale (a truck truck) and can go on a single battery charge.

Anytime Elon says anything about Tesla with a timeframe, you can guaran damn tee that it will not happen within that time frame.

Earnings call is today
Ah so more market manipulation… got it. Jesus I hate this douchebag.
Yet another lie.
The shareholders should sue.
Tesla lost 6% of its value today so I'm sure Elmo felt compelled to find something to pull out of his ass.
He's always lied about the self-driving capabilities of the cars and promised timelines that have never held. Print this statement out and use it as toilet paper

[ Doubt ]
He's lying again.
You can tell because his mouth is moving.
Tesla will begin its roll out of its self-driving Robotaxi fleet in multiple US cities in the months to come, already taking appropriate regulatory steps in both California and Texas.
Anyone want to take bets on how many deaths/injuries will there be before they're pulled?
Infinite is valid all things considered.

MY new Tesla? Doubt it. Considering I'm unemployed due to this clown administration and I don't tend to upgrade much of anything, let alone a vehicle, unless/until the old one no longer functions.

'this year'
Sure, Elon. Lets get you back to bed.
... Even assuming the self driving tech was actually capable of doing this, which is won't be...
How would this even make any sense?
Ok, if you live within about 200 to 300 miles of a Tesla factory, ... you have this option?
Fremont, California; Sparks, Nevada; Austin, Texas; Buffalo, New York; Lathrop, California.
Outside of 250 miles ish of one of those places? No self driving delivery for you.
... And I am pretty surr not all models are made at all those locations.
Despite long ago claiming his EVs and charger network would be capable of automatically recharging or battery swapping themselves... to make a long distance journey... that ... doesn't exist, he abandoned all of that.
Even funnier: Imagine a tesla self driving from the as of yet to be completed gigafactory in Monterrey Mexico... through the border checkpoint.
The auto charger network doesn't exist, the car would murder people, cause an accident or fucking explode in the border queue... and even if none of that happened... how in the fuck is a self driving car gonna get through a militarized border crossing?
If he just gives himself a waiver via DOGE for his cars... congrats Elon, you are now a drug trafficker / arms smuggler, whether you know it or not.
... fucking lunacy.

will it fall apart while en route.
Riiiiiiiight
He forgot to give us the point values...
| Ran Over... | Reward Points... |
|---|---|
| Child | 20 |
| Cat | 10 |
| Dog | 15 |
| Adult | 25 |
I wonder what they'll offer in the Tesla rewards shop
| Run over | Reward |
|---|---|
| CEO | - 100000 points |
Edit: updated into a table to clarify that I meant MINUS 100000 points, Life of one CEO is much more important to (f)Elon than lifes of us peasants.

This is such obvious BS. Putting aside that Tesla are always making claims about self driving that they can't deliver on, let's just consider the basic logistics of doing this for any customer who lives more than about 300km from a Tesla factory (of which there are two IIRC, and one of those is in Austin and the other is in Fremont)...
How the fuck is the car going to recharge?
It's not like it's going to plug itself in, and there are no staff at Tesla supercharger stations as far as I'm aware. With the range on a typical Model S even getting to LA might be tough if it gets stuck in traffic. Fremont to LA is just under 600km if you're lucky.

You will Nazi it coming.
No it won’t.
LOL my Tesla? Nonono. The possibility of me ordering a Tesla would require so much leadership refactoring at Tesla, I'm confident this is no longer a possibility.
To put it more sussinctly:
Fuck off with this bullshit ad headline. I wouldn't touch these swasticars if they jerked me off nightly
Is that a threat?
It's irrelevant because I'm never buying anything that piece of shit touches.
lol right. tesla cars can't even tell the difference between a painting on a wall and the actual road.
It can drive itself straight to the dump
Later this year: "I was right, but I actually meant to say 'into' instead of 'to' and 'someone's' instead of 'your'"
I ain't buying that piece of shit if it offers blowjobs.
I don't want to be caught dead driving one of those fucking nazimobiles. I would not take one even if it were free.
Not my fucking house.
Not because of advancements in technology, but because of erosion of regulations.
As if the far right folks will buy an electric car and Elon burned the bridges for buyers on the left.
