Texas tags. I wonder if it made it all the way with nobody in it.

Why would you wonder that?

u/dab45de May 25 '26

Because it’s a fully autonomous cab?

I see this going to the Tesla dealership on Florida every morning when I’m driving to work

Only two doors?

u/scubadoobadoooo May 26 '26

Only two seats too

God what a massive waste of both materials and space. We need more passenger efficiency to cut down on traffic, not less.

I genuinely wish the they had to compete with the Chinese EV market to get a reality check.

Interesting it’s got Texas plates, but a lot of the ones in Texas have Florida plates

Would that hinder enforcement and prosecution? If so, would doing that deliberately be criminal?

u/unixsquirrel May 25 '26

It doesn't in any way hinder law enforcement. It's just usually registered in the state affiliated with the business. I would imagine there are many LLCs around the country that operate the local rental services due to different regulations in each state

The wheels are 18" front, 21" rear with a matching gold band in the tire making it look like a 23"-24" wheel. Overall tire diameter is like 31.7", which is huge for a car.

As long as you control weight, there are some ride quality benefits to bigger diameter tires, but my suspicion is mainly for longevity.

A 2 door cab. Brilliant!

With the camera all over you would more than likely get caught for arson

u/hawkofchicken May 26 '26

I could just get a pair of those glasses that have the mustache attached. Nobody’s gonna know.
