…in a span of about 60 seconds (approach car, beautiful, handles extend, OMG, get in, stunning, flat screen stares at them, panoroof slider bar, foot on brake, speedometer flips over, roll away silently, first straightaway punch it, memories of first rollercoaster ride, fat-ass grins all over faces) they are shot out the birth canal into the bright light of a new, awesome world

Tesla = Apollo Program

…And then they think… NO WAY. As in:NO WAY has this freaking out-of-nowhere company kicked sand in the face of 100 years of auto-making. NO WAY have they done it, NO WAY is it American, NO WAY is it 8,000 laptop batteries flipped back and forth in the right kool-aid. NO WAY did you just buy another one from that super-sized iPad, NO WAY did I just laugh my head off driving in a loop around your neighborhood!

…It’s our Apollo Program.

People are proud of it. Of the balls to try it. Of the audacity to pull it off. People we don’t even know are proud of us for buying it. They feel like they’ve bought it by seeing it or riding in it. No one is lukewarm about it. Is this how Columbus felt?

I think everyone’s pumped that someone can still kick ass and take names, without going to war to do it.

It’s sort of indescribable.
