    Elon told you that this car will win any argument with another car. If a car full of teen showed you disrespect you should track them and ram them at high speed with your powerful torque. See their crummy car be flattened by your invincible steel battleship. You are the elite, the king of the road, don’t you dare forget it or everything falls apart.

      To be fair, the thing is still probably going to fall apart anyway if past Tesla weld quality is any indication.

        But not before passning all that impact energy goodness to the passengers due to the lack of crumple zones.

          and pedestrians, and the people in the other vehicle… I suspect this thing is going to be a lawsuit factory for Tesla.

      You can do that already with a GMC Sierra

      funniest part to me is this thing is going to cost owners so much money on body work. Any dent, ding, scratch etc. is gonna JUMP out on those clean steel panels, body shops aren’t going to be able to hammer out (would leave impact marks all over) or fill and sand (unless you like that bondo patch atop SS look lol) - or purchase entire replacement panels from Tesla, if they make any (and have the excess production capacity for spares) available.

      Oh and the lawsuits for making vehicles designed to slice through other vehicles - stainless doesn’t have the crumple / impact absorption modern vehicles are designed for.
