I do wonder if there's something specific about LA to SF that enables the low low cost Elon's suggesting. Like the fact that they share a coastline with the Pacific Ocean.

The $6 billion cost seems too good to be true for any transportation system that would require significant land acquisition. California is set to spend some $60 billion on a train between these cities, and most of that cost is for right-of-way.
