In October of that year, he tweeted that the company had sold nearly 4,000 hats and that the person who purchased the 5,000th hat would receive an additional hat for free. Elon Musk hasn’t been able to keep some of the promises he's made in the past, but when it comes to his Boring Company’s pledge to bring a recreational flamethrower to the market, the Tesla CEO appeared to deliver. In late November 2017, the City of Chicago announced a competition to build a high-speed transportation network from downtown Chicago to the O'Hare Airport.

With successes such as the LVCC Loop system and RD Tunnel, this futuristic travel system may be arriving sooner than anticipated. Meet Prufrock Prufrock is designed to construct mega-infrastructure projects in a matter of weeks instead of years Prufrock is designed to tunnel at a speed of 1 mile per week, which is 6 times faster than The Boring Company’s previous generation TBM (Godot-Plus). Unlimited Capacity: there is no practical limit to how many layers of tunnels can be built, so any current or future capacity outcome can be achieved. The company is planning to construct a tunnel parallel to Los Angeles’s congested I-405 – conveniently also speeding Elon Musk’s personal commute from his home in Bel Air to Hawthorne, California.While Elon Musk has demonstrated concern over what happens on land and in space, he also seems to be interested in what goes on underground. The LVCC Loop reduced travel time between the Convention Center campuses from 45 minutes to two minutes. The Loop—the heart of the tunneling system—is the company's underground public transportation system.

All the companies led by Elon Musk and what they do

Taking transportation underground allows us to repurpose roads into community-enhancing spaces, and beautify our cities. In 2002, Elon used his payout to found SpaceX, a space travel company, although it did not take off for years. The pedestrian product line features tunnels that pedestrians use to access different destinations, such as the Las Vegas Convention Center tunnel. Not yet open to the public, the Test Track is used for competitions where participants design and build electric pods to travel Hyperloops.The offers that appear in this table are from partnerships from which Investopedia receives compensation. If Musk were anyone but the CEO of Tesla, he might have left it at that, but just minutes later, it seemed that he had given the idea some serious thought.

Under construction is the Vegas Loop, a 29-mile tunnel that will connect to the LVCC and 50 other stations along the Vegas strip, in downtown Las Vegas, the Las Vegas airport, and other locations. These include white papers, government data, original reporting, and interviews with industry experts. Minimal Surface Impact: tunnel construction and operation do not create any discernible surface noise or vibration. But the project that The Boring Company unveiled in December looked remarkably different: instead of passenger pods, Tesla Model Xs were equipped with "tracking wheels," a guiding system similar to the way that vehicles are moved through a car wash.
