The complaints in the linked thread are not about reliability, performance or homologation.

That’s just one of the many jobs they posted during the development of semi. They also have “real” drivers that put a ton of hours shuttling Tesla cargo from NV to CA and vise versa.

Not to mention the author is from the EU. Trucking in the U.S is vastly different. I drove in both regions during my time in the USAF.

In your honest opinion. Do you think they just developed the semi without gathering/soliciting feedback from real truck drivers?

Musk's whims clearly took precedence over any sort of received feedback.

That a very opinionated yet empty statement. Please elaborate and share your experience driving long haul semi trucks in U.S. interstates and city streets.

Can you point out where? This looks pretty circular to me: https://www.tesla.com/semi

I am responding to the challenge that Musk doesn't ignore all sense and advice and feedback and established best practices in favor of simply what he thinks is cool.
