If they lowered it to $20k then you’d still have the same problem in the air in Baton Rouge because everybody there would buy one as well

The last time Elon was on Rogan, he hinted that the new roadster Tesla is making will be able to fly in some capacity.
Yeah I think he said he'd have something by the end of this year.

The way I took it (or at least how I remember it) was that it wouldn't be in the near future, that it was going to be pushed back. Could be wrong though.

Holy fricking shite. This is cool. Knowing what we know about federal bureaucracy though, I'm sure the FAA will grind nearly any regulation of this to a complete halt.

Sure, It’s cool looking, but I’m not seeing how it’s a breakthrough innovation.

Just hang tight. Within the next 45 days, Elon is introducing a real flying car. Elon said the product unveil will absolutely be the most memorable product unveil to date.
