November 22, 20196 yr So the bulletproof window broke during the press reveal, eh? I'm still looking forward to Elon's upcoming security system: MechaTeslazilla

Oh wait. The ramp is cool. The looks are silly. People will buy it because Tesla. Yep, fanbois gonna fanboi.

November 22, 20196 yr Elon watched a few too many Star Trek space shuttle episodes before designing that interior. ooph
November 22, 20196 yr I mean, what the hell was wrong with this concept?? "Nope, design me a pentagon with wheels."
November 22, 20196 yr 1 minute ago, BurntEyes said: 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.
November 22, 20196 yr 2 minutes ago, BurntEyes said: Engage. 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...
November 22, 20196 yr 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?
November 22, 20196 yr 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.

November 22, 20196 yr This thing looks like a 1988 Glastron boat turned upside down and put on wheels
November 22, 20196 yr Quote Tesla revealed its electric truck, called the Cybertruck, in a live event on Thursday. During a demonstration, two of the "armor glass" windows were smashed by a metal ball. Shares fell as much as 4.1% in early trading on Friday. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the company would fix the problem "in post." Watch Tesla trade live on Markets Insider. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.

November 22, 20196 yr 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.
November 22, 20196 yr 1 hour ago, Cajun said: I want to see Elon disable a planet eater before I put down my extortion money to get a place in line... Can someone with skills photoshop robotruck in this please

November 22, 20196 yr That interior is actually perfect for road head. You guys just need to see the bigger picture.
November 22, 20196 yr Well, when I think of "sucking" I do see where that, ahem, truck comes to mind, so I see your point Eastwood.

November 22, 20196 yr 24 minutes ago, Victor Lazlo said: Better upgrade those shocks. That is the adjustable air suspension.
November 22, 20196 yr 1 hour ago, Victor Lazlo said: 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.
November 22, 20196 yr 7 minutes ago, LoneStarBiker said: yeah, the concept is way cooler than the crap box they brought out today 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.
November 22, 20196 yr Maybe they just needed to figure how to sell a car without paint and this is the best thing they came up with?
November 22, 20196 yr 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

At this point it's looking like a 3 or Y. 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.

November 22, 20196 yr I mean is it any worse looking than those Scions or Cruisers or Fiats out there?
