IDK, did he have rocket propulsion all over the bike?


He once disappointed everyone because he pretty much made a steam powered rocket airplane and used it to jump over the grand canyon(attempted anyway).

The technology shown last night was incredible and well beyond schoolgirl excitement lying about what it actually is. It debases what the tech actually is.
Is it really that important?

People see shite moving through the air and call it flying all the time. Do some of y’all always fight this battle when you see it?

Lady gets boomed by a buffalo in Yellowstone, are y’all debating flying with commenters?

I know this car thing is a more legitimate arena to do it. But again, is it really that important?

Yes. If I know Elon, he knows the plans he has for this car. We'll see where he goes with it.

I think the issue at hand here is pretty silly. But to call it a "flying car" is also silly.

It doesn't have a fly mode that can practically fly you around on your daily commute. So why would anyone consider it a flying car?

People who are on team Elon are like Joey pants in the matrix


I’m sure it’s fun eating your fake computer steak


I’m huddled in a cave eating gruel because of people like Elon and hoping the matrix comes crashing down one day

Bc that’s what people do.

I highly doubt anyone who calls it a flying car is going to be disappointed when they surprisingly find out it can’t fly them to work.

It is a car that can jump on it's own in a controlled way, and that's pretty cool.

Mexicans invented this 40 years ago


Sad how Elon can only steal from people of color

He probably doesn’t think this hovercraft is flying either


I guess the Wright Brothers did not fly the first plane since it crashed after 120'.

So Evil Knievel flew over cars instead of jumping them?


Whatever it was, I just remember as a young kid in the early-mid 1970s, it looked pretty damn cool.

What they did last night was cool as hell too. That's basically knight rider come to life.

But I can't pretend it's flying.

It flies more than the wright brothers plane did and no one has a problem calling that flying.

Elon did say it flies more like a rocket rather than a plane.

So Orville Wright long jumped rather than flew?

It wasn't as wide as a 747's wings.

It should be hyped at least as much as self-driving trucks were.
