Tesla

So the bulletproof window broke during the press reveal, eh?

I'm still looking forward to Elon's upcoming security system: MechaTeslazilla

I want to see someone modulating throttle while doing some rock crawling to keep the torque high and HP low in the the sweet spot of the powerband for off roading.

Oh wait.

The ramp is cool. The looks are silly. People will buy it because Tesla.

Yep, fanbois gonna fanboi.

Now that I look at the interior it is the opposite of the Homer mobile!

Not one damn cup holder, that makes it a hard pass - I'm going to have to request to get my deposit back

[Cajun 11705]

Elon watched a few too many Star Trek space shuttle episodes before designing that interior.

ooph

I mean, what the hell was wrong with this concept??

But in fairness that fella really cranked off a heater at that window with a full wind up. 

The uncomfortable laughter as everyone tries to soften the impact of Elon's ego hitting the floor is priceless.

If it comes with a replicator and Counselor Troi, I'm in.

I want to see Elon disable a planet eater before I put down my extortion money to get a place in line...

Do we not want breakable glass that could allow for quick cabin access in the event that a crash mangles the body and leaves the doors nonfunctional?

[Jkwellborn 6686]

I think Elon's true genius (besides being born into a family who owns a Zambian emerald mine) lies in endlessly sucking up billions of our tax dollars so he can build toys for upper-middle class urban liberals.  
 

No kidding.

That “truck” is ugly as shit too. I guess if you wanna brag to your friends about having one, ok.

If he had rolled this out the truck world would be going nuts right now.  That's fucking dope.

Nope, they'd rather you burn up in a 2000 degree chemical fire

This thing looks like a 1988 Glastron boat turned upside down and put on wheels

Some are already spinning the window debacle as "Planned".

"Just look at all the free publicity it's generating by going viral!"

I shit you not.

It wouldn’t be so bad if the side wasn’t designed as a tri-force

It's a cult.  A very nerdy, lame ass cult without the decency to even offer you any free kool-aid.

Same thing

[Eastwood 4394]

That interior is actually perfect for road head. You guys just need to see the bigger picture.

[Cajun 11705]

Well, when I think of "sucking" I do see where that, ahem, truck comes to mind, so I see your point Eastwood.

[Victor Lazlo 1776]

Better upgrade those shocks.

They have airshocks and ride height adjustment...  I'm guessing when you want to deploy the ramp it lowers the rear and raises the front.

I'd have plunked down the deposit for the concept, no question.  I'm planning on buying a Tesla in a few years if they get their paint straightened out.  At this point it's looking like a 3 or Y.

[Fozzz 152]

Maybe they just needed to figure how to sell a car without paint and this is the best thing they came up with?  

[Captainant 27620]

Apparently theres no chassis under the body work - it's all just folded steel. The triangles contribute to rigidity and strength of the overall chassis, and it reduces weight and (allegedly) manufacturing costs and complexity. Then again, they are trying to sell cars lol. But does sound plausible

[Viper 12097]

Damn, did they design this using a Playstation 1?

Paint seems to be a minimal issue for most people and if you're super concerned you could get the aftermarket coating.  The 3 is the best car I have ever owned.  I've driven the S as well, but the 3 is way better, IMO.

Its like an updated/opposite Hummer for people to drive.

I love my S and will get a newer S or an X for my next car. But that truck is shit.
