A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

The Gen X and Millennial version is shitting on Telsa and panel gaps.
The Tesla hate is justified though, the cars are so cheaply made and rushed that earlier versions of the model 3 had the bumpers fall off when it rained because it accumulated water... lol
How is this different than when boomers ripped on Fiats in the 70’s? The cars were also poorly manufactured, and in the case of this example, were also known for shitting the bed when the weather got bad.
I didn't say it was different or better, Fiat's are still pretty terrible in reliability rankings as well
Just saying that it’s the same thing. Different generation, but still people ripping on cars have justified reliability problems. Younger generations do the same thing that the boomers did.
Teslas are poorly made though.
So were Fiats back when boomers used to rip on them constantly.
