It’s a bit silly to assume they didn’t solicit feedback from real truck drivers. While developing a multi-billion product. But “Musk/Spaceman Bad” right?
- markrages 4y agoThe complaints in the linked thread are not about reliability, performance or homologation.
- xedeon 4y agoThat’s just one of the many jobs they posted during the development of semi. They also have “real” drivers that put a ton of hours shuttling Tesla cargo from NV to CA and vise versa. Not to mention the author is from the EU. Trucking in the U.S is vastly different. I drove in both regions during my time in the USAF. In your honest opinion. Do you think they just developed the semi without gathering/soliciting feedback from real truck drivers?
- ahahahahah 4y agoMusk's whims clearly took precedence over any sort of received feedback.
- xedeon 4y agoThat a very opinionated yet empty statement. Please elaborate and share your experience driving long haul semi trucks in U.S. interstates and city streets.

- xedeon 4y agoCan you point out where? This looks pretty circular to me: https://www.tesla.com/semi https://www.tesla.com/semi
- Brian_K_White 4y agoI am responding to the challenge that Musk doesn't ignore all sense and advice and feedback and established best practices in favor of simply what he thinks is cool.
