What did you park next to? (Or what makes the Roadster look tiny?)

[samcarney]

I've had people ask me "is that a Ferrari?" several times.

A young boy in a parking lot asked me "is that a Ferrari?". His dad said "no son that's better than a Ferrari, that's a Tesla".
I couldn't suppress the 'Tesla Grin'.

Wonder how necessary the fire extinguisher is in that car.

Well, it is a *British* car... Ducks...

My friends were just excited to finally find something that made their Smartcar look BIG!

Pepsi has a bunch of electric delivery trucks now (seeing them more often!)

A co-worker pulled up in his Miata saying he loves to park next to me as I have the ONLY car that makes his look big.

So DOES size matter after all?

 

[markwj]

I reckon I could park 3 roadsters in that space.

 

[FANGO]

Barely even as tall as his tires.

Well then? Where's the Roadster?

 

[adiggs]

Lol - my first glace at the picture, I thought the Roadster was the bucket of the big industrial machine

No wait - that's not a snowplow / bucket on the front of the machine; that's a Roadster parked there!

I'd call that a push...

I live in Texas... so this is what I deal with.

OK, not so much of a size thing, but not everyone parks next to the Model S testbed for Model X:

Look at the metal plate on the roof to simulate the additional weight (and distribution):

Here's an inside glance:

It apparently hasn't been driven much lately:

@smorgasbord, that is a unique "next to" image in more ways than one: that was taken at the Tesla office in Palo Alto, correct?

Do you work for Tesla or did you just stop to charge there?

 

[smorgasbord]

Do you work for Tesla or did you just stop to charge there?

Neither. I was in the neighborhood and decided to drive by.
