    Yeah, they've had similar versions of that. My thoughts...I will stick with my Performance model (which they do not and not risk trying to brick your car. Tesla can and will see anything in that vehicle in any attempt to over-ride it and anything warrantied would be voided right at the start.
    If I had a long range model, I would just want the acceleration boost thats provided by Tesla and wont void anything.

    this. I would not want to modify a Tesla....warranty, updates, etc. get thrown out.


    and yes, that statement is bit hypocritical - as I have modified a Tundra for very similar reasons.

    Yes, but Tesla is smarter than Toyota lol. I believe for OTA on this one, you need to remove it. Still, not a chance I would want to take and would rather do it with the right vehicle made for it.

    I’m sure production models will take the ground clearance thing into account. I think it’s pretty awesome.

    Yeah, true. Like current city busses, usually lower the air suspension for entry/exit.

    I know a few dads who drive their kids around in 15 passenger Nissan 3500s who might look pretty hard at the Robovan.

    Imagine a giant family pouring out of this thing for their homeschool field trip to the zoo or the state capitol. :rofl:

    Imagine going out on the town with friends and no one has to DD or worry about parking. I'm not sure if you would want to own one just for those times though, would be part of a municipal or private fleet for those purposes like current taxis are.

    Yep. Lots of applications. Maybe by the time my kids are in high school it’ll be an option for a group of them to take one to prom.

    I’m not knocking dads with big families by the way. I think we need more of them to be honest.
