Elon's fall from grace has to be one of the most spectacular I've ever seen, without committing some heinous crime. I used to think he was incredibly smart, if a bit nuts, and had all these left of field ideas that occasionally worked out for him.

Hell, if twitter/X never existed, I would probably still think that.

That doesn't necessarily make them a fan of Musk himself.

They are undeniably a unique vehicle, and do have some cool tech on board.
