    Disney+ Removal Exemplifies a growing problem

    More importantly issues in one privately held company should cannot affect another publicly held company. If this is a governance issue then the Tesla Board needs to have the guts to discuss this with Elon which i doubt they will as they are happy with the gains they have got from the stock grants.

    2023 Holiday Update on the X

    Recommendation for minimum PPF for Model X

    PPF/Wrap or Tint is a personal choice as you are going to spend your own money. So it is ultimately your call and choice. Just be happy with your choice and enjoy the dive in your new car.
