I want a Tesla Roadster with nuclear reactors in the back. Elon, make it happen! But seriously, what an idiotic idea. Just imagine some dude accelerating with the thrusters at the traffic light and losing control over his car.

wasn't the car announced in 2017 and supposed to be released this year? What happened to the cyber truck? is that even in production yet?
... or is Elon just using those 650k $1 pre-orders on the truck and taking it to loan company and saying 'hey i need money to build these 650k cybertrucks". The dude got people to pony up $50k deposits for a roadster back in 2017 lol.

I thought that was a "make mine a cabrio" feature they charged extra for? Oh wait... Auto-not-pilot. And it does cost extra.

Your average tesla driver would be asleep at the wheel on a good day. At least that's what the news says.
Like the old saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. If the way modern tech is going, they would program that in some software and take as much responsibility away as possible. All the while whistling and walking away when things go horribly wrong. |

from what I've read if he does get cold thrusters on the car they can only be used on designated closed courses verified by the GPS. Similar to how the early GTRs in Europe and Japan would only let you go over 110mph once you got to a racetrack.
