While no contractors have been officially announced for the project, Tesla procurement manager Jessica Munoz told the Community Impact Newspaper that two general contractors have been selected but not yet named. The firm also is looking for subcontractors for various jobs including site logistics, painting, flooring, fireproofing, interior finishing, plumbing, heating, ventilation, air conditioning and electrical projects. — Construction Dive
In July, Tesla announced the purchase of a site near Austin-Bergstrom International Airport to build its largest electric car assembly plant, dubbed "Giga Texas." The ambitious opening date has reportedly been set to May 1, 2021.

People i've talked to say they regret buying Tesla. One said he'd stand in front of a dealership and warn customers not to buy.
they are developing too many junky products instead of improving what they have. This looks like another undercooked trash can on wheels
Not sure who you talk to, but Tesla scores at the top of Consumer Reports list of customer satisfaction among auto brands
Both of the above can be true, of course.
Ill put a positive in for Tesla. Most of my complaints are linked to software updates with bugs...and get sorted within a few updates anyway. Does your car get new features every couple weeks? Progress!!
So many questions!
Ha - I laughed at this
I like the truck but dont like Elon
Okay, sarcasm hat off. I like it when new designs (for cars, furniture, buildings) propose something that departs from the norm. This is one of design's strengths as a field of endeavor.
That attribute is a good thing, on its own. It doesn't (however, and thank goodness) shield the new stuff from critique (or ridicule!) on its own merits.
This thing is intriguing to me as a form, but its function as a vehicle makes it complicated. Regardless, I'm glad someone designed and made it.
