Supply and demand is one thing.

Try digging a tunnel in something more challenging than soft dirt and see how the price *doesn’t* come down. For example Boston’s Big Dig where they had to literally freeze parts of the ground to make dams so the half-built tunnels wouldn’t flood, and work around hundreds of years of buried infrastructure AND a couple…

... At least they’ve taken the “cost down” inside Elon’s brain.

All of that is more BS.

What is special is how Tesla/The Boring Company is working to drastically reduce the time and money it takes to build the tunnels.

This is what they showed a few weeks ago and it looks production ready.

Musk is well known for delivering on any timetable he puts out, so I have full faith in this.... BWAHAHAHAHA!!

This.

Is Tesla still running the Camera and Radar only (no LiDar) play for full autonomy? Good luck with that, Elon!

Are you implying that you can actually buy a cybertruck?

Yeah, but cybertruck is poised to outsell the F150 and GM 1500 class trucks combined very very soon!

Tesla fans believe Tesla dominates entire product categories where their offerings are mostly fictional (Roadster, Semi, Solar Roof, Cybertruck), so if anything the real waymo self-driving will reinforce the cult’s beliefs. Waymo’s self driving that it actually has is less impressive than the self driving Tesla…

Hey, I’ve had my Tesla Model 3 on The Tesla Network for that last 8 months, generating income and making my car payment, my rent and my 5-Hour Energy habit. People never vomit or release other bodily fluids in an unattended taxi service. Never.

Soon to be evaluated by NHTSA after the next fatal accident. 

“Will release limited beta in a few weeks.”

First: Didn’t they first promise 500K cars for 2017?

“WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT, WELFARE ABUSING, GOVERNMENT OVERSPENDING IS THIS?! A FUCKING MERCEDES IS DROPPING OFF MY MAIL?! I CAN’T EVEN AFFORD A NEW FUCKING KIA, AND I’M PAYING THAT ASSHOLES SALARY TO DRIVE A MERCEDES?! NO WONDER TRUMP WANTS TO KILL THE USPS, THIS IS BULLLLLSHIITTTTTT”

Tesla has their own media ecosystem, headed up by Electrek and extending through a series of evangelist blogs that brook no deviation from the Elon-is-God party line. The less they have to deal with an interested but reasonably impartial media that actually asks meaningful questions, the happier they are - and why…
