They make no money on R1 vehicles. Their burn rate is insane. When you learn that they buy 20$ batteries for key fobs and glossy paper for things on the service center level, you’ll understand they’re not long for this world.
College professors and other no experience in automotive people are managers of service centers and we wonder why they can’t maintain a schedule or make service actually run correctly. Their only hope is Apple or someone else that’s nailed service down, to acquire them.
Anyone that believes $46k and 330miles are the same thing, I’ve got a 69420$ cybertruck to tell you all about.
