I guess we'll have Tesla Fanboys in the model of Apple Fanboys. They'll love the Buck Rogers looks and The grand poobah changing their software on the fly with his string of low earth orbit satellites.
This truck has some good ideas, also some excellent features, but it misses the mark for a working tradesmans pickup. It was designed by space cadets, dreamers, the way all big strides are achieved, and I'm sure it will evolve when they get in touch with people who would use this for work. Or maybe that's not the target.

You see millions of people driving pickups that don't need one other than picking something up from Lowes or the Antique store. The main reason they've become popular for the two car family, other than the manly man image, is you sit high enough to see more than a trunk lid in front of you. Tesla's truck is low, maybe too low, but I guess you don't have to see ahead when you've got bullet proof.
