Is this a joke? What else could be under that tarp? It even has a little flap for the plug.

I feel my ability to understand satire is being attacked by reality.

And I checked the comments and its a mix of musk riding:

“I don’t understand how people get so easily manipulated into hating someone that has done so much to change our life’s. Elon is great man and is doing great things for our country and uncovering so much corruption and honestly he needs more credit”

or thinking this is a joke:

“That’s not hiding the fact that there’s a swastikar under it”

            Oh ok, so if they didn’t pay an astronomical amount of money for a proper primer coat first, it’s gonna damage the low grade stainless steel body?

            I’m not surprised really but I am constantly impressed at how Tesla managed to use such a low quality steel for that body.

        Yeah crazy, this is the first time I have seen one and gone fuck that’s stupid large. And at least here in Australia they won’t pass our laws so I’m unlikely to ever see one. The thing just gets worse every time I look towards it hahaha

        I’ve never thought of it that way, lol. Tech Bros must just say and do whatever they think will earn them the most praise and money. I think that is why they raised that because it was being marketed as an “ultimate truck” even though when it panned out it was the complete opposite.

        Elon has this thing in his mind where the world will turn into some apocalyptic dystopia like that Futurama episode where Fry freezes himself for another 1000 years. That’s also why he put a bio attack mode in the Model X.

        And now he’s doing everything to make sure the world actually turns into that.

          The bio defense mode is just a HEPA filter from what I can tell, my Seat Leon has that which I often activate in tunnels during winters as studded tires are creating a lot of concrete dust.

          Ideally with cans of brake cleaner. On the paint and clear coat. Brand them, like Brad Pitt in Inglourious Basterds.

        The garage only has space for two of my vehicles when empty anyway. Besides, how else are people going to keep tabs on how my project car is going? They need to know when it finally has wheels.
