    Maybe you and girlfriend & cat can get one of those tiny homes, eventually.
    Something like $10,000.00 gets you a paid in full Tesla tiny home. They're beautiful.

    Why Las Vegas?
    Las Vegas’ proximity to Tesla’s Giga Nevada and Boxabl’s existing infrastructure makes it a strategic hub for rapid production and distribution. The city’s manufacturing base, logistics network, and Musk’s personal interest have accelerated the project.
