It was well past its prime by the 1970s. VW would've ended production long before 2003 if it wasn't seen as an iconic vehicle.
The original Beetle was a very cheap car being sold at a time when no one else was making such vehicles. Sales tanked once competition showed up. The problem is that Tesla is seeing competition now.
Also, Teslas aren't cheap. So the market for them is much smaller.
That's the thing about decentralized social media: Individual sites and sub-communities don't have to be particularly active. They just need to exist as a place for honest discussion.
This is what killed nuclear cargo ships in the past. Ports just don't want such things coming in all the time.
They're still using pressurized gas tanks. Apparently, not even a drone is not too small for such things.
There are fuel cell powered drones out there. Size hasn't been an issue for a long time.
The board is a bunch of stooges. They all need to go to jail in all fairness.
