Re: Bizarre new vehicle in my neighborhood

I've seen one parked in my neighborhood too.  If they had tried to design the ugliest vehicle ever they could not have done better.

Re: Bizarre new vehicle in my neighborhood

A few months ago I left the office on Friday and went to the grocery store and parked next to one of these things.  The cashiers and the sackers were all discussing it and looking out the window.  It was still out there when I left but I could not see anything inside but I did not really stop to peek.  Then that following Monday I saw it as I was leaving my home for work.  It is somewhere close by and have only seen once more since that first weekend.  I do not care for it.

Sometimes I like something that is a little different or unique and I do kinda like the looks of this.  I wouldn't shell out that kind of money for one though.

I've seen them on the road. The best i can say about it is that it makes you look!

I would never buy a Tesla product or knowingly use anything created by Elon Musk's companies. I hope he goes out of business.

We have those around too.  lt's Elon Musk's "truck." Yes, expensive.  I have no idea why anyone would want one.

Re: Bizarre new vehicle in my neighborhood

Just went and checked it out on their web site.  Quite interesting...while the design doesn't appeal to me its versatility does.  So if I had $s to burn I would probably get one as long as it is comfortable to drive.

I saw a ton in the Woodland Hills California area visiting my sister last week.

I live in an older neighborhood.    There are ZERO charging stations in this area...

@haddon9 - Exactly, as would be concealing your license plates in my state.  If ever there was a vehicle suited to criminal activity, this is it.

 

That's if it doesn't break down during an escape!

Personally, I think Elon's just in love with his own ego and all of this "stuff" is a reflection of that.
