Counterpoint - it’s easy for Toyota to make their cars work so well because they really reduce complexity and they roll out technology slowly - usually starting with Lexus where they can devote the resources to building it right.

I AM a lifelong Jaguar fan (I even say it British proper).... can you imagine my reaction? The only time I’ve ever almost plowed right into a telephone poll was the day that blue F-type passed me on the road. My jaw was dropped so far I had to do an emergency swerve/break to miss a pole.

Even though Tesla has only earned a profit for a two or three quarters (in ever) their assets, tech, and those 400K Model3 reservations make them valuable to…

Laugh, but now he looks like a frigging genius.
