Read the article and just...wow.

Ron Dennis is combusting plasma-hot somewhere in an immaculate modernist home.

Good on you for taking the Corvette camping.

36,000 miles in 2 years. Did the same with the GTR before that. Going to do the same with my Turbo S now. No, you don’t want to know how much that costs in depreciation. Especially on the Vette. 

Then I left the Magnum with my ex when we got divorced, and she promptly wrecked it. All in all it’s been an interesting life. 8/10, would live again.

You know what else is part of managing a business? Paying attention to market share and competitive product lines. I’m 100% behind you that Ford probably needs layoffs, they’re just laying off the wrong people. Instead of making better products while interest rates were low, they jacked up prices and boosted profits…

I once bought a brand new 2003 GMC Yukon. I was definitely considering selling it before I hit 43 miles.

There was a time in 2006-2007 where Ford didn’t even own its own logo because it pawned it for a payday loan. Look it up.

In all fairness, the Fucknut division is a tough gig. Even Steve and Jeff failed to turn it around, what chance does Kevin have? 

Kevin gets a raise, and a 6 figure bonus. Because you can’t afford to lose talent like Kevin.

go fuck yourself george

Well you’d be right if that’s really what they were doing, but all they’re doing here is trying to pump the stock price. 

Why is it always fire some folks? Why can’t it be the top 100 executives take a 10% pay cut? Mike and Dave in customer service aren’t responsible for a 4% decrease in gross margin, but you know who is? Fucking Kevin, VP of the fucknut division who axed the focus and fiesta.

That’s weird, I was just now thinking about how I’d like to crap on a Citation for some reason. What are the odds?

“0-60 times in the mid teens.”

That is not just assembly issues. That is what happens when you skip the tried and true “real car company” practices of pre-production design validation testing, pre-production builds, design changes being implemented before going into production. Tesla tried to skip steps and just go straight into mass production.

It’s funny how you can compete when you don’t seem to care about making money.

In much the same way that I watch Kitchen Nightmares and marvel at the fact that restaurant owners will operate in the red for years until they are at the brink of losing their business, their house, their cars and often their family members assets, I dont understand why Tesla is enabled to continue operating this way.

He also said they will be profitable from every quarter hereon (this was a quarter or two ago) and not have to raise any more money. And yet...

He’s just realizing you need accounting? Now? After this much time? This is why people from and of obscene wealth shouldn’t run things, they actually haven’t a fucking clue how the world or business or geopolitical politics works. For proof just look around the world and why it’s getting fucked up, rich people…
