Elon Musk has always been quite the showman. Here he does it again, with a bit of humor.

I love Tesla, but I would definitely keep my Stang if I could afford a Tesla.

soooo yeaaaa....why don't they show anything actually being done? Seems like more of a marketing stunt than anything

I have a friend who works for them as a tech out of Watertown....he's super busy working from 9 - 9 4 days week. That company is really gaining some steam

My issue is, at 75k - 90k a pop.....it's out of the hands of the average consumer. Hopefully with time, it comes down to the 20k - 40k range AND have charge stations readily available.

Probably because they don't want to show thieves how easy it is to steal the expensive battery??? ;)
