I wonder how long it will take to get in a car wreck with that 17" monitor?

To me,  with a keypad and all,  why is that not exactly like texting while driving which is illegal in some states?

A bosses brother in law down south has a new Tesla.  Don't worry,  the boss at work let us all know it at work.  Like I was impressed or something, I could care less? 

All this techy garbage on vehicles is what is making them too expensive to afford buying new anymore.  I hear GM is installing wi-fi on some vehicles now.  Like we need the internet in a car while driving?  Too many darn smartphones (of which I will never get in my lifetime if I can avoid it since not many basic phones to pick from anymore) while driving already using internet.

My Dentist has one. He loves it.
 Everything I have heard about the car and the company is most impressive.
I might be able to work there, but I doubt I'll be able to afford one.

That's waaay cool. 

However, a point or two.....

That screen is bigger than mine and the wife's first TV...which was a 12" black and white. 

Everytime the camera was on the female driver's face, she wasn't looking at the road ahead. 

Lots of distractions in the cockpit.

Looks like you may need a flight engineer so that the pilot can concentrate on flying the machine.

I thought for sure the narrator was going to say the driver could change the exterior color of the car too by using the on board system.

now that would be a cool option

I have a 55 inch TV..

Anything that says it's got a touch screen is out of my realm of thinking.

Low gas prices will kill this BITCH>

THE NEW HAAARley's have a touch screen.. Not this ole boy.

I still have a dumb phone.

Yup, too much junk. Probably takes  half an hour just to figure it all out. I;ve had my 93 f150 for two years and still haven't found out how to program the damn radio. At least the AC and heater work.
