There's Musk in the Epstein files, for sure. But you know what I love above the Roadster? The people buying the flying versions are going to be quite wealthy. The flying versions are likely to experience RUDs and malfunctions, much like Musk's rockets (see the recent Thunderf00t video). So, Musk may have inadvertently made us a way to get rid of rich people.

    Have you seen the photos of the nitrogen tanks and the underside of the vehicle? The flying version is a 1 of 1, nobody will ever drive one because it's an investment grift.

    Yeah, the base model might, possibly, come out (though judging by previous performance, pretty good chance it won't). The fan one could possibly, but it's more of a gimmick than anything (also going to be very annoying for maintenance). The ones with the tanks though? Yeah, severely doubt it, especially the flying one. Like you said, investment grift. That doesn't even seem to have paid off, judging by stock price. And, if somehow it DOES come out, it'll be severely compromised. Like having a battery that lasts like 10 minutes or something. And probably be running those COPVs way above normal safety limits. It's the OceanGate Titan all over again.
