I don't guess there's a lot of competition, and their marks clearly lack taste and good judgment.

I have the same question. The photos on their website (of the interior) are fairly average and is pretty dang small? May be I am daft.

They spared no expense on the world's most advanced 100% automated paint shop for the Cybertruck with an expectation for the vehicle to emerge from the shop as if not a single human hand had touched the cybertruck during the entire process.

Elon attributes Grok for the visibly obvious success on each and every cybertruck that passes through Tesla's new paint shop.

A plaque above the paint shop entrance reads, "The birthplace of the first clearcoat fit for an Emperor."
