Usually you don’t still have to have it.

He was literally in an Iron Man movie and you don’t think people were making the comparison?

If you ran a company selling a product, would you rather have that product be better than your competitors, or good enough that people will pay the price? Who cares if your product is better than the competition if customers aren’t actually buying it.

They don’t have dealerships, they have stores. They still have salespeople at those stores.

How is the V4 supercharger good enough for Tesla’s vision to be a robotaxi company? They going to hire an attendant to stand at every supercharger and plug in the self driving cars?

He thinks he’s ironman.

Define “Worked”. The company is now worth a fraction of what he paid for it.

People love change when it benefits them. People hate change when it’s done for its own sake.

Investors must be thrilled, they’re back to 54% of the 52-week high!

So they gave a vague response about a cheaper model by saying that cheaper models are coming. This could mean a new model is coming, or (far more likely) it just means they think they can bring down the price of existing models.

Plenty of reason to wait. A lot of people love everything about the Bolt, except for its charge plug and charge speed. The updated Bolt should fix both of those problems.

I have the demo this month. On a perfectly sunny day, it almost smashed me into a stationary vehicle while making a left and then ran a stop sign with no hesitation. The next morning, smart summon tried to drive directly into a Bob Evans. 

Can someone explain to me in very simple terms how to decide between the new 4Runner and the new LC, ignoring aesthetics?

It can still happen with your hands on the wheel unless you have lightning quick reflexes. I have the FSD demo in my car now, and it is unpredictable.

I sat in one a few days ago. It’s a piece of crap but the footwell is plenty roomy. The picture makes it look a lot smaller.

Exactly. The 3 and the Y were already on the roadmap when he bought his way into the company and purchased the title of “Founder”. The truck is the first thing that came from his leadership, and it shows.

There is zero chance the take rate was ever 53% and it sure as heck isn’t close to 14% in recent years. His data must be from surveys of Tesla superfans on Tesla-focused blogs and message boards. In other words, massively biased.

Worst by what metric?

I just sat in one at the car show. It feels cheap inside too, but it has a lot of neat places to store things and cool gimmicks. It really is very practical. But the interior shouldn’t even be discussed in the same sentence as a Land Rover. Even the Kia Telluride is substantially nicer inside.
