@Van - what's up with that Space X backdrop?

Is Elon trying to impress us again with the hype that this is spaceship equivalent? LOL!

@8.1 Van -- am not exactly a fan of acceleration even after being nailed on my seat on my son-in-law's Lambo Aventador.

Well, maybe useful if I get dusted along I-5 or 80 as my daughter in her Tesla X has shown them, lol.

@8.1 Van - thanks for the side-by-side on F150 and Cybertruck. I have reservations for both though for me it's first to market and I maybe make trading profit (on my own kids) on the 2nd, lol.

There is active board out there on the rocket propelled Roadster. Interesting, my son-in-law has his own traffic citation lawyer when he owned an Aventador (two Ferraris before that).

@8.1 Van -- the difference when the company is being run by marketers, err, bullshitters and by the technocrats.

If it's us finance people, you will get bicycle tires as standard and all the rest, high margin options. [emoticon]

A sign that the Tesla Semi production is starting soon!

Tesla is installing mega-chargers at a Frito-Lay location.

That's good news.

And @8.1 Van's photo also showed heavy press for Cybertruck arriving.

I wish it could add 30 to 50 miles, but then again, it would come with the advance in solar tech.

But I love the concept and this is also being actively discussed in the Cybertruck forum.
