SpaceX Astronaut Buys Ford Mustang Mach-E Instead Of A Tesla

Dr. Sian “Leo” Proctor is a SpaceX astronaut who’s already built background. She was a member of the Inspiration4 crew, the initial non-public mission into the closing frontier. SpaceX, of system, is the rocket and spaceship corporation started by Elon Musk, who’s also a founder and CEO of Tesla. So you would imagine Dr. Proctor would mechanically pick out to purchase a Tesla as her initial EV. Can make sense, appropriate? It does, but it was not the appropriate EV for her. Alternatively, she opted for a Ford Mustang Mach-E.

Producing on Twitter, Dr. Proctor explained that this is just not her initial Ford. “I experienced a Bronco II throughout grad school and loved it! I experienced some excellent adventures in it. I enjoy that the Bronco is back again but I desired an EV for all the metropolis driving I am accomplishing.”
