You would think, but you have to remember there’s a LOOOOT of grey space between “the explicit truth” and “lawsuit-grade slander”.
That zone leaves lots of room for embellishment and overstatement.
The general public is so woefully underinformed on tech issues and the development cycles of vehicles and the like that…

This all seems like legit research, but I strikes me as disingenuous to not once mention that Hindenburg is a SHORT SELLING firm- they release this research specifically to profit off of the resulting stock collapse. As such, it’s always good to take it with a grain of salt.

That being said, the commonality with Nikola…

Plenty of those cars have din/double-din trim adaptors.
I’ve been thinking about upgrading the stereo in my ‘04 TSX.

I’m extremely excited for the R1T. My desire for an EV and something tech-heavy has always been at odds with my desire for something Tacoma-esque.
No other car or truck has checked so many boxes for me simultaneously- so much so that this is the first time I’ve ever saved up for a specific vehicle.

It’s like reverse uncanny valley- I was CERTAIN the headlining image was a dramatic photoshop for the clicks. The GLA looks BLATANTLY photoshopped onto that image to me, how wild!

I know source vetting is apparently a lost art, but usually the very first check is “does this source financially gain from what they’re publishing” and that should have been a colossal red flag on that hindenburg report. They made SO much money convincing everyone Nikola is a fraud, and largely on outdated…

To be fair, no matter how you cut it and whether Nikola is happy about it or not, their best chance at success (or simply un-failure) is shutting up, putting their head down, getting pen to paper, and focusing on their core business model.

I dunno- if I was a Nikola investor, I’d be happy to see this.
It looks to me like as soon as Milton was out the door, they stopped fighting to keep all his expensive side pet projects going and have been happy to just refocus on their core business of HFCs and semis.
It seems their priorities are focusing in and…

Weird that you used a Ford Escape for the headline picture!

I remember being excited about these next gen consoles back when it looked like we’d finally have consoles that could out-perform an equivalently priced PC.

...then NVIDIA happened.

440 million pound-seconds of impulse is quite a lot. I wonder if these tests do measurably change the earths rotation the tiniest bit.

Some day this kids gonna be a BMX superstar and talk about this guy in an interview about how he got his start.

My Ex in the chest freezer... uh I mean- poorly organized nuts and bolts?

Why do I feel like I just watched a political ad?

...Is Trump Perseus?

Nah, looks like probably a latest gen smartphone filming in 4K.
What makes the biggest difference is that it was uploaded properly with very little compression.

I’ve done it, but it’s always in the back of my mind as a possibility so the correction is lightning quick. I’ve never gone more than a couple feet as such and I’ve certainly never hit anything.

My thought too. Guns didn’t even get drawn here...

If that’s the case, it happened early on in the process. Developing all new platforms is not easy, its not cheap, and it most of all is not fast.

Watch Elon pay millions to get them to use a Cybertruck.

Yeah I’m with you- the whole damn point of leasing IMHO is to stay relatively up-to-date on tech and performance and get a chance to drive something new and interesting.
To be fair, you can go too far the other direction and be like my dad, who has owned now 36 consecutive years of White Honda Accord... across only two…
