It's so cold, Teslas are struggling to charge in Chicago
The Arctic air gripping much of the U.S. put Tesla drivers in Chicago into a pickle on Monday. Many of the cars sat in long lines at Supercharger stations, their owners saying the cold sapped the electric vehicles' normal ability to charge — and keep a charge.
In some cases, tow trucks were called to move the cars, in scenes that were relayed by local TV news. The Tesla owners' plight became an emblem of the misery extreme cold is inflicting on wide sections of the U.S. (more on that below).
Tesla owners line up, hoping to get a charge
"I've been here for over five hours at this point and I still have not gotten to charge my car," Tesla driver Brandon Welbourne told CBS News Chicago, as car horns blared nearby. "A charge that should take 45 minutes is taking two hours."

- The Stable Genius claims that he also founded this company.utopian
- I thought it was well known that he didn't, and was just their clown. Another testament of his ignorance, because their cars are shit.garbage
- Tesla Boyz will be a thing in the near future. To my knowledge there are two exploits that anybody with basic knowledge can steal the car.garbage
- That goes for almost any EV, but jailbreaking a Tesla is not hard at all. Any owner should have a club as a visual deterrent.garbage

- It is well known he didn't. I've never heard otherwise. But he did take a company that was on the death path and make it one of the most valuable companies.formed

"Tesla Inc. has reached a deal to resolve a lawsuit over the death of a Model S passenger in a fiery 2016 crash, marking the second time in two months the electric-vehicle maker has avoided a jury trial in California over a fatal wreck."

- Makes no sense. The truck is his, he can sell it or blow it up. It’s not teslas business.monospaced
- "he signed a Tesla Vehicle Order Agreement which states if a Cybertruck owner sells the EV during the first year, they can be fined $50,000"imbecile

- So lamemonospaced
- Ferrari, etc., is similar. I doubt there's any legal standing and tbh, this sounds like another part-truth story.formed
- the more you talk about it the more he winshotroddy
- It seems that your "let the free market decide" stance doesn't align neatly with your narrow-minded right-wing agenda and capitalistic narrative.utopian
- So all above opinions aside fueled by whatever... dude buys a crazy expensive wide truck and didn’t bother to first spend 5 minutes w/ measuring tape in his spotprophetone
- and then he knowingly signs this very Tesla-specific contract after I hope at least 5 mins of researching Reddit etc about buyer experiencesprophetone
- I mean fair warning to everyone, the future is hybrid electric hydrogen vehicles and ALL will be rolling network computers annoyingly latched to a network 24/7prophetone
- I mean BMW is/was forcing customers who fork over $100K+ for their cars a subscription for heated seats... this is the future too, nickel/diming via network locksprophetone
- It’s crazy now but in 20 years it’ll just be par for the course... vehicles will be 100% subscription-based like almost every other product-service out there nowprophetone
- Pricing decisions based on supply and demand factors IS the Free Market. That GED didn’t really help you out, did it?hotroddy
- just rent a parking space somewhere nearby that it fits.Nutter
- a 50k fine is getting off lightly - you should be killed if you buy one of these fucking clownmobiles.face_melter
- Canon is doing this with their cameras - charging subscriptions. Panasonic did it with their VLog (to unlock it). It's the future, unfortunately.formed

- Rare mono agreement: Anybody who bought one of these pieces of shit is a moron that didn't read the forms they were signing.garbage
- You're signing up for a "holding period" for one year, and if they consent on a buy-back they will rip you off. And it's a big "if".garbage
- There's even a shit backdoor Cybertruck Ebay, and this dude probably got caught using it, hence the 50k.garbage
- I saw one of these in person yesterday. They're immense and dumber looking when you see them in person.CyBrainX
