If you are my dad (thank gawd), I'll be worried with possible Alzheimer, dementia or psychiatric denial for not remembering that Elon did come up with truly full electric car and there was no auto-pilot before.![wink [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/wink.gif) ![biggrin [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/biggrin.gif) ![scratchead [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/scratchead.gif)

That's what I like about Elon, continuous improvement, sometimes free even on fishes already hooked. And delivers better than initially promised (except on those pesky production delays, lol). I don't know about continuous improvement, but there is continuous updates that may, or may not, actually occur. So far we've seen exactly squat.

You got your hyperbole confused.
Unless you own Walmart, your groceries won't be delivered by semis.![confused [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/confused.gif) ![scratchead [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/scratchead.gif) ![huh [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/huh.gif) ![doh [emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/doh.gif)
Most likely, drones or those smart carts like in that pizza commercial.
That is, if you live long enough.

Then I just see that it has nothing to due with vehicles that are late.

Randy Pobst and the Plaid won the Exhibition Div. He actually came in 10th overall. 9th was a 1996 BMW M3. Not knocking the car but facts are just that.
I’m actually surprised we haven’t seen one wrapped up in a ball yet.

The 4 door Ford Maverick of Jack Roush was #1 in NHRA Pro Stock back in the 70's.
