Boggles the mind.

Extremely fast Mazda RX8 :icon_mrgreen:

 

10000 NM of torque :shock: you will need a G suit.

 

I like the sports car but I am more excited about the trucks, that will turn the trucking industry on its head.

 

All these great products I hope he can deliver, the Tesla 3 I ordered will only be delivered 2019 or 2020 LOL

200k for the roadster and unknown for the semi...but 50k deposit on the roadster and only 5k on the semi....haha. 5 seconds in a semi sounds like fun though.

 

Anyone think truckers will have a problem with the center seating and only one seat?

Didn't know you ordered a Model 3, congrats!

 

Yes, the trucks are a big deal.

 

However, production issues with the Model 3 and now they need to get into commerical trucking. IDK but if they pull it off, amazing if so.

 

The event seemed more like a "let's move the attention away from this issue" event. I have no doubt in the company FYI, the trucks have me putting more $ into tesla.

 

Trucks, roadsters, cool, but when will they be available?

 

I just wonder WHY we haven't seen anything from "major" auto companies yet. Open patents, capital and labor to make electric.

Once they get autopilot sorted, Tesla is going to put every truck driver out of a job and obviously, this will have the inevitable knock-on effect on prostitution.

And Mexicans will take the blame

 

The straight line performance specs are nuts. I just don't see it as any sort of "dream car". Certainly wouldn't want a poster of it on the wall.

Exactly. Why they can't find a decent designer is beyond me. There is 0 want in the looks department. Also a 0 in sound department. Since my buying is driven by 1) looks 2) sound 3) performance, this is pretty meh in my book.

Ya I personally can’t into the idea of a lack of sound. Maybe at this level of performance and with the looks of something like what Lambo had in their concept, it could pluck at some heart strings.

Yep. Replace my sound with more performance I can live with. But it better be poster-worthy looks-wise.

I don’t know...on many levels for me sounds is as important as looks. While Im actually driving Id argue its MORE important.

God that thing is ugly. The trucks on the other hand are pretty damn cool, Im not exactly sure why it has taken so long for some to develop cabs and aero that will make them more aerodynamic.

Overpromise under deliver dazzle them with bullshit. Deliver 222 cars in the timeframe you promised 10000.

 

They’re introducing new vehicles and can’t produce the ones they already have.

Tesla would not even exist without massive tax subsidies.

top speed is easier one in my mind, power/gearing/aero/range is easy to work out, running 8.8 brings in a whole set of complications...

 

 

Lots of people drinking the Kool Aid on this one.

 

The acceleration numbers I can believe, the top speed not so much, and the range no way.

 

I'll believe it all when I see it.
