Maybe even for a certain type of LA people rather than most 'Silicon Valley People'.
That truck is the product of an all time Elon frenzy, didn't he announced the sports car too? and people pre ordered it. Where is it? and more recently the humanoid robot.
How about the " full 100% legit self driving Teslas in an year or two"?
As long as those Model3 continue to get sold, Elon can continue to get away with this stuff. At least the truck seems to be a reality.
- toss1 3y ago>>At least the truck seems to be a reality. It seems that "seems" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this post — the Cybrtruck is years late, still has problems, and as pointed out, a limited market. They may lose a huge amount of money if they build a production line and sales never take off. I wouldn't put it past Musk to make an "Aura Product" that is vaporware just as a marketing ploy...
- PedroBatista 3y agoIt's late, but there are a few test mules going around so "it's a reality". IMO it would be best to NOT be a reality because it's really a dumb fashion statement and marketing move. But I'm not the target customer and I have little problem with these dumb things as long as Tesla and Elon remain honest and deliver what they told people would get, which.. has not been happening much.
- toss1 3y agoDo we define "product is reality" as [prototypes and test mules exist] or [commercial availability]? For this context, I'm kind of in the latter camp, considering prototypes to be roughly equal to vaporware, in development, but...?.
