    I was thinking Tesla should just call their truck the Model Truck and be done with it. Then they could say, "We produce S3XY Roadster Semi Trucks" :p

    Any other thoughts for a name of the Truck?

    If Ford had an issue with Model E, I could only imagine the heart attacks if Tesla tried that lol :)

    I'd say the Semi should be the Model 00
    Then the Pickup can be the model L
    and a future compact can be the model C

    Model B, Elon is making a lot of allusion about some Bee on twitter so and that would make the sentence "BEE S3XY"

    Model F...troll Ford F-series a little. Plus name the semi Model Z, compact sedan Model A. Then they'd have S3XY AZ F.

    Surely that was the intent with the Model 3, which is so very aimed at being a drop-in replacement for the BMW 3-series.

    Think so? Thought they couldn’t have “E” due to Ford patents so had to settle for “3?”

    As much as they may have targeted the 3-series strategically, I think the acronym was far more important to Elon than trolling BMW. JMHO.

    The Pickup Truck could be:
    - Model P or Model T if they go with the first letter of the type of car like with model S that stands for sedan
    - Model B to continue the S3XY spelling in BS3XY. That then could become BS3XYR (Be sexier) when the Roadster will come out.
