1/ No high profile $TSLA event is completed without some fraud. A small thread.
2/ The "sledge hammer" was a dead blow mallet, designed not to do damage. You can buy one here.

4/ The lack of side mirrors are illegal in the United States and the vehicle isn't street legal. You can check the law here.

5/ The lack of a third brake lights are illegal in the United States and the vehicle isn't street legal. You can check the law here. https://itstillruns.com/third-brake-light-law-7694370.html
6/ The starting price is the same as the Model 3. We saw what happened to the $35K M3. How can this larger, heavier, more complex vehicle be produced for the same price as a M3? It can't.
It's a fractal of fraud and I am sure there is more to be found in that short presentation.

7/ I am not sure if this is accurate (quick DDG search didn't find the law) but I trust the source who works in automotive.
Remember the people burned alive in Teslas when their door handles don't open? What happens when you add unbreakable glass? https://twitter.com/Reboticant/status/1197909661825015808?s=20

8/ We can't test this of course but, again, I trust the source. The claims of a literally "bullet proof" body should be taken with an entire shaker full of salt. https://twitter.com/Benshooter/status/1197743436188663814?s=20
9/ Apparently the truck is illegal in a third way. The rear lights on the tailgate are required to be on a fixed part of the vehicle. https://twitter.com/dps5400/status/1197784507191091200?s=20
10/ If you want to see some more Elon fraud, I highly recommend checking out the website I made: http://ElonMusk.Today .
Scroll down through the whole things. Lots of laughs to be had!

11/ Errata: I didn't do enough research before retweeting point 9. Apparently there are redundant lights for when the tailgate is down. If those are brake lights then that would seem to satisfy that legal requirement. To the best of my knowledge all other points stills stand.
12/ The "latest Porsche 911" featured in the drag race video was .... not surprisingly not the latest 911. https://twitter.com/PaulMaric/status/1198358953014390784?s=20
