The Tesla.

Well they are finally shipping the Tesla Roadster. The first reviews sound decidedly ho-hum and quite underwhelming. How is it that the gearbox is the weakest link in this whole system? I mean gears are as old as time, you'd think that they could have come up with something reliable. It sounds like they were trying to please to many customer demands which is a risk you always run when you start taking money from people before the car is acutally finished.
