Could this be the reason for the recent share price increase?

I chatted with a body technician once and it mentioned they were told none of the panels on the CT are to be fixed in any way but full replacement. Cheaper and faster.
Hard colored plastic would be the same. (1/2jocking)
The rust rumour is absolutely ridiculous. Are there rusty Starships standing in the Rocket Garden? (Russell Brand excepted) Are there rusty DeLoreans driving around? Who has seen any rust on a DeLorean? Has anyone made a video about rust on a 40yr-old DeLorean stainless steel body?If that's a Tesla policy, they (and/or insurance companies) should have two options for customers to choose:
1) "Like new" option -- replacement body panels
2) "Post apocalypse/mad-max" option -- weld or attach random-ish scrap steel to patch over whatever dent/ding/hole/etc. is in the existing panel. Maintain the safety / integrity / aerodynamics / etc. of the truck, but don't spend extra for cosmetic purposes. Let the patches rust/patina completely differently fromt he rest of the truck.
Side note:
Has anybody else noticed how the two biggest complaints about the Cybertruck from the Tesla/Cybertruck haters are: "it is ugly" and "damage/corrosion/etc. will stand out and be difficult to fix because it's impossible/expensive to do good cosmetic repairs on stainless steel!" It's pretty odd to complain that it's ugly but also complain that it will be difficult to keep it perfect. I hope a good-sized population of Cybertruck owners really lean into the "it's ugly / it's not a princess wagon like other trucks" philosophy, and either let the dents stand, or cover them up with something that fits the post-apocalypse / cyber / armoured personnel carrier from the future motif.... Even better if insurance companies recognize potential cost savings for a "no cosmetic repairs" option on Cybertruck insurance .
The haters only talk about the rusting IF they bought a cyber(NOTA)truck.If that's a Tesla policy, they (and/or insurance companies) should have two options for customers to choose:

With the improvement that Prufrock 3 can advance and place wall sections simultaneously.This is why I specified the use of a calibrated Elonograph for measuring time span for this.
As I understand it,
The addition of each tunnel ring (six of the pieces stacked on the ground assemble into one ring) is automated as the machine runs. So, it bores the length of a ring section, retracts the rams, installs six pieces of the ring, and fills the void between ring and dirt with cement, then the rams start pushing again. I doubt this takes very long to cycle for each new ring.
To "take it back out" they porpoise out the other end of the tunnel, load it up, and the completed tunnel remains behind.

The rust rumour is of course, perfect material for FUDsters trying to throw shade on the Cybertruck, and for those who want to read shade thrown on the Cybertruck - because they won't actually follow up or look for real evidence after reading the articles. But... unlike real rust, the rust rumour will fade away over time.
I noticed the performance model 3 has disappeared from the tesla page. (At least in Canada). What’s up with that?
While the world is amazed by OpenAI Sora...
To the point that Meta AI lead didn't believe we knew how to do it:
I want to remind the people here that Tesla did the same thing 7 months ago:
I recommend to watch a few more mins more in that clip to remind you of the promise of Dojo.
speaking of Dojo, wonder what Jim Keller has up his sleeve and if Elon knows...I recommend to watch a few more mins more in that clip to remind you of the promise of Dojo.
Tenstorrent?speaking of Dojo, wonder what Jim Keller has up his sleeve and if Elon knows...
At 4:25 he states his favorite design is one that is coming but cannot talk about. Most here will think $25K, but he could be referring to a vehicle not talked about yet, I have my opinions.
The first link is "Take a short text prompt, and generate an entire video world full of imaginary people, clothing, streets, signs, lighting, etc.... from scratch with no priors"
The Tesla "did the same thing 7 months ago" is "Take this actual real video, and just project a guess at the next frames forward in time"
That is not, even remotely, "the same thing"
Only if Elon had access to a large media platform to teach the public about the benefits of a Tesla, how incredible the Cybertruck is and why the Model Y is the best mass market car in the world.
An investor can dream.
