Tesla launched in its online store a new accessory for owners called Tesla Short Shorts, in what is a play on CEO Elon Musk’s war against short sellers of the company’s stock.
“Celebrate summer with Tesla Short Shorts. Run like the wind or entertain like Liberace with our red satin and gold trim design,” reads the Tesla website description.
“Relax poolside or lounge indoors year-round with our limited-edition Tesla Short Shorts, featuring our signature Tesla logo in front with “S3XY” across the back. Enjoy exceptional comfort from the closing bell,” adds the website.
Sure 🙂

Musk tweeted out the shorts were available for purchase earlier this afternoon, priced at $69.420 USD each (the ‘420’ looks to pay homage to marijuana, it appears). Shortly after, he said “dang, we broke the website.”
