Hmm I do remember Musk joking awhile back about someone using their car as a boat. I can see why the above commenter might perceive that as real advertising since Tesla's advertising truly is word of mouth using social media.
More distressing is the above commenter described a nightmare scenario which went unaddressed. I guess that's your right. I wonder what you think about that part of their comment and whether it is "believable" or not. I find many aspects of messaging coming from Tesla, either the company itself or supporters, as unbelievable.

Thrust via wheel rotation.“ “If curious abt TSWLM car, am still planning to do a sports sub car that can drive on roads. Just a side project. Limited market potential :)“ Musk, 10:29 am 6/19/16 The spy that shagged me car which is a reference to a amphibious car.
