So Mr. Musk is in the news with announcing yesterday land agreements to start building the Hyperloop in January 2016 with completion in 2018.

My question is will it really change the way we travel?

 

Will it truly get built from border to border or just a magic trick of distracting investors and the news from the poor performance of Tesla?

 

Your Thoughts?

No way it is completed in 2018. 

No way they even have all of the needed land agreements in place for coast to coast travel by then.

 

He'll have a glorified airport transit running between two medium/small cities... maybe... by 2020.

Dude is a showman.  Bozo was a showman too.

From what I've read, the 2018 project is for a small scale (2-3 mile) version for a subdivision under construction (that has been delayed several times).
