We're being shown a marketing video as part of a PR campaign at SXSW that says that everything works perfectly. Yeah, please forgive me if I am a bit skeptical.

This company is closely related to Google (who has, arguably, the brightest and smartest engineers working for it), a company who just recently knocked all of their own bigtables DBs offline for an hour by a "no-op config change".

Show me a third party using one of these cars for a year solid with no software maintenance, unexpected behavior, or human intervention, and I'll happily shut up. I'll even let them do that solely in AZ.
