These guys have finally stopped saying that they love the truck. Maybe they'll come to the realization that Elon has always been a scam artist in the next 5 years.

I really want someone to ask Elon some real basic questions about Mars. Size, location, approximate gravity, etc. Can he find it in the night sky? Can he name the current active missions on the surface? In orbit?

I expect he has a JJ Abrams picture of the universe where planets are just right next door to each other and they're the size of the moon in the sky.

We're just one breakthrough away from Star Trek. Just unreasonably held back by a big glass dome and all of sci-fi is right on the other side. Just need to find the right alchemy potion and we'll be zipping all around the galaxy

If the situation from the front end teardown video is showing the common case, then the water that falls on the windshield (and the wiper fluid sprayed on the windshield) all basically gets channeled and falls directly on the wiper motor before dribbling down into the rest of the front end (including soaking the soundproofing material).

A well-designed, well thought out vehicle.

You've gotta have quite the mush brain to think "Maybe 8 billion humans is a bit too many, we should have less children and make do with a lower population" is equivalent to "We need to exterminate humanity so lets start up the meat grinder."

People who talk about overpopulation are not advocating for wholesale slaughter of billions of humans. Having fewer children is not a holocaust.

I understand Musk believes that we will populate the solar system, and the solar system can handle quite a bit more than 8 billion humans, but maybe get that working and figure out how to actually share those resources well before we start pumping out billions more children. Even if we spread out into space, our future would look more like The Expanse than anything he's thinking of.

So the initial sales pitch was that it would be structural stainless steel.

The reality is that it's built exactly like a stainless steel refrigerator. just decorative panels over stamped steel/plastic
