His review of the vehicle verges on religious fanaticism, as if he can barely contain himself with multiple superlatives about how great this-or-that is.
As he liked to say in the article, "here's the kicker": no word on WHEN these will hit the streets.
Let me repeat that: bring in an...
Gosh! I'm a SO terribly surprised at this (lack of) development!

+1 ... there IS that, agreed. Absolutely not a Tesla fan but I'll give them credit for being innovative and a 'disrupter'.
