I call him Elon Mucks cuz he mucks up everything he does

Why does the mere mention of Musk bring out all the crazies? On both side of the fence. He's just a brand name with a team that hires great talent, and knows how to get them to do amazing stuff. Stop taking his successes and failures so personally.
Anywho, I'm just glad to know now that if I get in a small fender bender that I won't have  to replace the entire body.

You gotta love the haters in this. It cracks me up lol!

What a poor article! Like the gigacast is bad thing?
The gigacast is awesome. It's one of a kind and the largest ever.
If they had to make a few compromises to add crumple zones that fine.
For the most part the vehicle is one or two solid molds.
So sick of the same looking pickup for 80 years.
We should be way more advanced in our vehicles but innovation slowed so much in the last 20 years it's silly.

Tesla will never sell this monstrosity of a truck.
Too expensive and butt ugly!
Let's be honest,  Americans will continue to buy big gas-burning hulks.

If the author took 5 minutes to look at the Tesla exoskeleton patent that was submitted back in 2019, they would see that the exoskeleton design in the patent is EXACTLY what was observed in the factory spy shots.  The lies and BS from the fake wall street journal people "in the know" comes from a video where Munro & Associates speculated that the exoskeleton design might be based on stainless steel sheets metal that would be folded up like origami using metal brakes and laser scoring.  When Munro later saw the spy images they immediately dismissed it as "not an exoskeleton" when it didn't look like their fantasized interpretation of what an exoskeleton design might look like.  They too, never bothered to actually look at the publicly available patent.  Wholly unsurprising as to what you talentless, lazy bloggers consider journalism.  Whatever it takes to push a narrative and get clicks from simpletons, amiright?

Would like to see crash tests done front sides and rear that would tell the whole story !!!!!

Elon is a Chad LMAO!

More clickbait. Nonsense. It's not an exoskeleton it's a steel exterior. The author is still wondering why Tesla is number 1 selling car in the USA . How can this be?

>You clearly have never been in this factory and know nothing about production methods.

You ever been in that factory?

I see..... vapourware.... dead vapourware...

Elmo is the king of simps and chads. He's a felcher through and through. f*** him!

It was never going to pass US crash tests. It was never going to be delivered at the price point promised.

NHTSA saved Musk from the exoskeleton concept. Inflation saved him from the price point.

Good thing for him that he didn't enter into some sort of binding agreement that forced him to deliver, like he did with Twitter.

Quote from: Mike Smith on August 10, 2023, 06:45:02THINK ABOUT IT. IF IT IS A EXOSKELETON WOILD YOU NOT BE ABLE TO UNBOLT IT AND REBOLT ANOTHER ONE IN ITS PLACE? DONT BE DISAPPOINTED. IT IS A TRULY WORK OF ART THAT HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE.

Wouldn't that basically be a whole rebuild, though?

Also, DO WE SERIOUSLY HAVE TO YELL SO MUCH?

Will believe this when Musk says so, otherwise just more nobodies online throwing shade.
