  1. Best thing about the Model X: Astronauts launched by SpaceX drive to the launch pad in them. An astronaut rides in a Model X to the Falcon 9 rocket with the Dragon spacecraft on top - all vehicles with Elon Musk's stamp on them. They even wear spacesuits made by SpaceX. Everything is in a matching black & white scheme, of course. SpaceX is another vertical company; all of the rocket engines and thrusters on F9 and Dragon are built by them, as well as all major and most minor components. Every other U.S. launch vehicle has engines sourced from separate rocket engine companies.

  2. I worry about using them while it's raining; looks like with even a mild wind plenty of rain could get on the seats before I got in, especially if I had something in my hands, or even worse if I was putting a child in their seat.
