Well, he said it was going to be different.



Starts at $40k, though. That's impressive.

Why are they bothering to make a truck if it's not going to be aimed at the working class?

I don’t know how the hell this thing is hooked on, but I don’t think it’s a receiver.

I'm sure Elon just forgot about that. It pops our or slides out or something.

It looks like it's aimed at hipsters, gamers, posers. Kind of your new age REI member group.

That was the entire point. And they have nothing to hide. On a typical vehicle, at least for the side windows, that ball would have went all the way through the windows.

The truck is ugly, no doubt, but it is a game changer especially for companies with fleets of trucks needed. The cost of ownership and value of such a truck especially with companies that understand the economics. Just so so so much value.

I was floored how cheap it is. I thought the price tag was going to be at least 80k starting out.

It's easily at a working class price point? I don't understand. I think for some guy named Leroy from Harrisonville he will call it gay and stuff, but eventually they will adopt it due to the sheer value it adds to their lives. But my guess is they will really succeed in the commercial vehicle market.

You're right that is still impressive & does offer security as it shows that it would be very hard to smash the window & get to something or someone inside. However it sounds like they were really expecting it to bounce right off & not leave a mark.

While no one would expect most standard windows to stand up to a test like this, even Elon seemed surprised by the results. "We threw wrenches, we threw everything," he said on stage. "We even literally threw a kitchen sink at the glass, and it didn't break. For a little weird reason it broke now, I don't know why."

It has my full attention. Place my 2500 body on that drivetrain and I will have damn near the perfect work vehicle.

I will have to see how they hold value before committing since I trade in new every 2 years.

I don't mean to speak out of turn for notorious, but those are the numbers I've found.
Ok, I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying that you could buy almost 2 Chevys or whatever for that price.

You better see how they hold up before you buy one.

Yeah, I walk by the Ford dealership here a lot of times on morning break. It's astonishing how high some of those trucks are priced. I'll just keep my old 03 F-150 thank you very much.

No the window wasnt supposed to do that. And yeah it performed a lot better than any other car window, but no it wasn't supposed to crack/break like that.
