    Great watch. Leno discusses the semi with Tesla head of semi Dan Priestley and Tesla chief designer Franz von Holzhausen and then goes for a drive in it.

    Lot of technical talk, not just fluff. Same turning radius as the 3/Y, carbon wrapped rotors like the Plaid, large mass gives it insane regen, standard trucking air brakes to interface with already existing trailers.

    They want to keep its mileage a secret until closer to launch so they disabled the miles display so employees can't leak it. Also no one knows the price yet and it's launching this month supposedly

    It's tinted with UV protection but there are aftermarket shades available.

    even in direct, mid-day Houston sunlight, it's barely noticeable.

    it must have some magical kryptonite coating on it.

    What’s up with RWD model Y? Price drop $5k and increased 0-60 time. Different battery?

    Its RWD. I believe they are going to phase those out and make them all AWD. Slower 0-60, no prem sound, and diff battery (less range, but can charge to 100%)
