Claims "high-volume" production by end of 2024... no chance!

Start in 2026... affordable... yet still a Rivian... there will be serious Osbourning of existing models for years to come... not good for Rivian in the short/medium term.

Yeah... something's not right here....

OK... someone just compared Tesla to PanAm with a straight face... in for 40 more!! Let's goOoOOoO!!

Did anyone see the post(s) from Brad Ferguson (of Rebellionaire) pointing out that Joe Justice only worked at Tesla for 2 months (!!), yet we treat him like the ultimate Tesla expert? He had an image from LinkedIn noting the 2-month tenure, and Joe even replied and confirmed he worked for 2...

Stop cherry-picking things that have ZERO impact on the company... ffs... /s. :p

Now 50... and still 100%. 😂

Are any of the loans/agreements used to purchase Twitter tied/backed up by Elon's compensation package, which seemed like a solid bet at the time?

In addition to money from X, there's Starlink IPO and sale of private SpaceX shares... X is still in a big hole though. Going back to the big post by @Artful Dodger, I've been worrying a bit for a while about how it is in Elon's interest to keep the share price low: cheaper to buy new...

He's been a vocal supporter for many years, and represents a younger generation, which is good. He started buying $TSLA early... 2013? And it is his largest position by far; he has not sold much over the years and, when he has, it has been to invest in start-ups. He's been quiet on Tesla in the...

The more markets that Tesla enters, the more geographic/economic diversification we get; just pump more cars into another country if one temporarily slows down. We're already seeing this make a HUGE difference in Europe, and there are so many countries we have yet to formally enter!! While most...

Rob Maurer/Tesla Daily addresses the Reuters "investigation" and punches some holes in it... starting just after 6:40...

Wen California?!?! The biggest US market... :(

50% new parts...

I wonder if Tesla could get temporary German plates and offer an incentive for new owners to take delivery at Giga Berlin (reduce the vehicle price by the shipping cost); include a free Giga Berlin factory tour and some other perks. Tesla could hire buses to get all the Scandinavians to Giga Berlin.

:oops:😂😂😂😂

I'd like to drop a Tesla Range Extender into my boat for when I switch it to 100% electric...

Again, it would have to be a really good deal... "pennies on the dollar", and that dollar would be on the *future* price of Rivian once investors give up on them. And I'm not saying they *should* do this... just that there is a less-than-zero chance they could. You say you are "a fan of...

I don't think you read my post! - *wait* until investors give up on Rivian's money-losing ways - buy Rivian in a hostile take-over at *pennies on the dollar* - *drastically improve* the efficiencies of their R1-S and R1-T [and the delivery truck] - fire 80% of the people - there's a greater...

Tesla can wait until investors give up on Rivian's money-losing ways, and then buy Rivian in a hostile take-over at pennies on the dollar... then drastically improve the efficiencies of their R1-S and R1-T, and gain an instant entry into the conventional-looking truck/SUV market (and the...

*This* is the *EXACT* kind of hype that gets us all in trouble... we hear these glowing anecdotes and how Tesla is going to DESTROY/DOMINATE, then stock price crashes and we sulk for a few months.... By the way, I love the hype!! Keep up the good work!!! 😂 😂 😂 😂 :cool: Let's goooOoOOOoOo...

Maybe we finally broke the Max Pain Masters! To the MooOOoOoooN!! /s

Tony would poke his own eyes out to avoid seeing this:

Yep; I have a friend with an R1T and another with a R1S... riding in them, I can't help but be very disappointed in the giant, boxy front of the vehicles... Rivian did not have the balls to think from 1st principles and instead followed the status quo of truck/SUV shapes... the result is bad...

This is not off topic, as the more money that X.com can make from subscriptions, the sooner X.com is printing money, and the less likely Elon has to sell $TSLA to pay X-related debts. If Elon pulls off an uber-successful Twitter-X transition, it will also lend more credibility/certainty to the...

*GREAT* summary about George Hotz, Comma_ai, etc... a potential FSD competitor, so definitely relevant to all of us...

Same talk, except for the Precision Fermentation bit (using industrial biological processing to get the animal molecules/substances we want in a faster/lower-footprint/lower-energy/lower-water/etc. way... versus livestock/dairy/etc.... basically getting some of our high-environmental-footprint...

Informative. A couple of items I'm not sure about though... saying BYD was the 2021 top seller of EVs in China: this includes PHEVs (BYD sold ~321K BEVs; Tesla sold ~473k?). Also, the image of an article noting a 1.1M-vehicle "recall" about acceleration/braking risks; I'm assuming it was just a...

How about the guy who was smuggled out of a country in a suitcase? (No, not the Saudi journalist... 😞... but Rawlinson should be nervous). I'm thinking about the guy who allegedly committed fraud before he permanently scuttled Nissan? That guy! He'd be perfect! :p Back on topic: Tesla lithium...

It's all back... a mistake... ya'll are too quick on picking up the smallest of changes! RELAX. 😂

I disagree that the decision as to which battery storage system is purchased by a utility is a 100% financial decision. This would be the case if an engineering consultant had done a very detailed design of what was to be built, and if the general contractors/subcontractors were prequalified...

Hmmmm... a bunch of "analysts" jumping ship... some could say that they may know something (earnings call will disappoint), but I'm assuming they just want the uninformed to sell so that they can get into $TSLA at a lower price. HODL it is.

Most saltwater marinas will have shore power... 120V 30A is pretty standard... but some places will have 125/250V 50A, but those cables are thick/heavy/pricey. I have a light 18' boat at a marina nearby... I built it up to be electric, using a Pure Watercraft propulsion system, but they're only...

What's going on after hours? It is usually steady... 😒

Not just single-stack FSD Beta and quick software iterations (new versions), but also broad roll-out to users in North America, and much progress in getting FSD Beta approved in several other countries. Fingers crossed!

Streaming (Music as a Service) is perhaps analogous to Robotaxi (Transportation as a Service).

Burnt Hair perfume is shipping on Friday... coincidence? I think NOT. Boring? Yes.

For sure this will help expand the Supercharger Network using other people's money, and this will benefit Tesla, $TSLA and Tesla drivers in an outsized way. There is plenty of money just aching to be spent on quick/economical/reliable/effective EV charging. And if, in a few years, some of the...

Also, these types of products tend to charge a fee/percent of your position, so they are likely not ideal for long-term holdings (if things move sideways for a long time, you slowly lose money). Better for short trades (gambling!).

Troy going Full Greg with the FUD... apparently a strong Giga Texas ramp is a bad thing now (as if the IRA is not going to make demand soar), and he's claiming that Q4 demand is equivalent to future demand with a $7500 discount or tax credit (!??!).

What. The. Actual. *Bleep*!?!?

And more good news... Fremont going from ~10,400/week to 12K then 14K... https://www.tesmanian.com/blogs/tesmanian-blog/tesla-fremont-produces-12k-cars-a-week-plans-to-produce-14k-cars-a-week-according-to-a-leaked-info

This sounds too good to be true! "Tesla Reaches Production Capacity of 42 Megapacks [plus an 85% increase in Q3] & 6,500+ Powerwalls per Week" https://www.tesmanian.com/blogs/tesmanian-blog/tesla-reaches-a-production-capacity-of-42-megapacks-6-500-powerwall-per-week

$1,114+ "Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride, Nobody gonna slow me down, oh no! I got to keep on moving!!"

Greetings everyone. I'm a long-time lurker, first-time poster. Thanks for the steady stream of rational, calming posts throughout the last 5 years+ of $TSLA ownership. I've held through virtually all of it, fought FUD hard on Twitter, owned a 3 LR since 2018 (Y LR coming early 2022), avoided...
