I mean, with Semi's isn't a big thing going to be about self driving, therefore not needing such experienced drivers?

I'm not saying have a kid on there, but what angle do they have if not for self-driving? Poor range, unrepairability?



The comment you are replying to is about repair, not about the drivers. Did you maybe mean to reply to a different comment?


>Diesel mechanics tend to be ridiculously intelligent and very resourceful.

I was just saying about maybe the driver being in the picture isn't something Tesla is going for. A prime argument Tesla has was about eventually eliminating the need for so many drivers. "If not that, then what else?" was what I wanted to say.

EDIT: They seem to have a range of 500 miles. Which is 1/3 the range of normal diesel semi's.


A mechanic isn't a driver
