“In my mind, Tesla’s core competency is their technology. And that 17-inch touchscreen is the embodiment of Tesla’s technological prowess.“

Tesla has a vegan interior option.

You are incorrect. The absolute worst are people who pull into the pump, go in and buy shit (cigarettes, drinks, or snacks) and no fuel.

“Third, cell phone and refueling”

Can you prove that they knew they couldn’t meet them? Are you sure they don’t just set high goals as a way of motivating their people? What’s the motive for them to lie about this?

You don’t automate to design a car, you automate to build it.

Whoa whoa whoa, get outta here with these “details” that fuck up the simplistic narrative of the post.
