            Elon Musk
     tweeted on Sunday that Tesla was trying out a new delivery system that takes a vehicle at its Fremont factory and delivers it directly to the customer in an enclosed trailer. Musk was on hand for this first delivery, taking a few pictures with the new owner of a blue Model 3.
> Tesla didn't immediately return a request for comment, so we don't have a whole lot of information about this new delivery method right now. It's unclear what kind of vehicle towed the Model 3's trailer, but based on past Tesla service vehicles, it was likely a traditional gas or diesel pickup of some kind, which isn't exactly an efficient vehicle. It's also unclear if it would even be feasible for deliveries far away from Tesla's Fremont factory.
