As I kind of expected, not amazing overall, but I laughed pretty much every time Nanjiani or Starr opened their mouths. Relied a little too much on obvious/well-worn tech company gags.

my friend works for SolarCity, which he strongly corrects me about. it's not run by Musk, he says. it's Musk's cousin.

And there's usually only 3 parked at the dealership

idk, the cult of Musk makes a lot more sense than the conventional tech wisdom that the uber dudes are visionaries. i mean, he's trying to get to space and build a train that goes 800mph, the appeal of these things seems obvious even if you don't share it.

Teslas aren't sold from the dealership. You order one, they build it and deliver it to you.

yeah idk there is no tesla dealership, maybe you saw a place with free charging stations
I think my friend with a Volt has been optimizing his routes to be able to charge his car for free while drinking

I mean, ducking in for a drink. Probably not a good idea to drive too close to him, just in case

There's Tesla showrooms in a few places. There's one in a mall near here. On one of the upper floors, no less, which just seems weird.

“As we danced at our wedding reception, Elon told me, ‘I am the alpha in this relationship,’” Justine, who was wed to the mogul from 2000 to 2008, wrote in a Marie Claire article. “I shrugged it off, just as I would later shrug off signing the postnuptial agreement . . . Elon’s judgment overruled mine, and he was constantly remarking on the ways he found me lacking,” she continues, saying he told her, “If you were my employee . . . I would fire you.”

Sort of what I'd expect from a billionnaire called "Elon Musk"

if this isn't technically a dealership, it is at least surrounded by dealerships and occupies a space that was previously a dealershiphttps://www.google.com/maps/place/Tesla+Motors+Santa+Barbara/@34.4336131,-119.747588,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x80e9151f819505f7:0x4e0b1a589e5a265c!8m2!3d34.4336131!4d-119.7453993

but yes, they seemed to only have one of each model type available for test drives or something. which is a bit hilarious because the lot is huge.
