I guess the sloping sides help deflect radar beams so the cattle don't see the farmer approaching....

That's funny because my very first thought was that it took its styling cues from a modern stealthy destroyer...

...or the old F-117 Nighthawk

I like your idea of the farmer being able to sneak up on his cows! LOL!

They said it was BULLET PROOF. Did he throw a bullet? NO!!! He threw an object that is MUCH HEAVIER.

So...more Fake News.

“That’s a truck?”

Reminds me of a cross between a Humvee and a M3A1 White Scout Car.

You might want to slow down on gulping that Kool-aid:

NHTSA to Tesla: Stop claiming your cars the safest.

tl;dr:

Telsa has been lying about the results NHTSA produced.

Maybe if he hadn’t used such an awful phrase about his Creator, things would have gone better for him.

It turns out that my brother-in-law bought one of those things last night. Or, at least he put In a reservation to get one. I would love to see how this thing turns out when he finally gets it.
Oh yeah, total liberal too.

“Humlorean” — nice coinage! I like that a lot. Fits perfectly.

Yes, “The man”, not his staff.
He was surprised that a large solid steel ball broke his windows, twice.

Oh, and “Worlds most powerful rocket”?
Pretty certain the Atlas/Saturn series pre-date him.

And the same to you too!
Whatever set you off.

And no, I am not a Musk/Tesla fanboy.
I dread what the results are going to be for my local economy when Tesla crashes.
Kind of hope for sooner rather than later, the overall damage will be less severe.

"We threw wrenches, we threw everything," he said on stage. "We even literally threw a kitchen sink at the glass, and it didn't break. For a little weird reason it broke now, I don't know why."

Many a mickle makes a muckle.

You would think a engineer would know that.

“Engineer”?
Does he actually have any genuine (Not honorary) degrees in his own name?
