Disappointing there is not a word about safety to the outside world. I get they have to market to drivers, calling it a "beast," but large trucks are a great danger in terms of losing tires and, especially in cities, collisions. I see it is built with a scoop design so "things" (people, bikes, etc) hopefully don't get pulled under it so easily, but hopefully it also has advanced collision and awareness features suited to such a large vehicle.
It is unfortunately typical of Musk to market to the aggressive impulse, rather than harmonious, even if his ultimate goals are beneficial.
One of the biggest dangers of trucks is losing their brakes and going out of control. As the article points out, regenerative braking vastly reduces that problem. So that’s a safety win!
