We may need a new thread just to capture all Elon backtrack comments.
So much for that End of Quarter push…
I’m still waiting for the day everyone on this forum realizes what a total scumbag this guy is. The board cannot remove him fast enough.

Everyone seems to fall under elons aura when they first get into Tesla and spacex ect. But eventually you start to notice his comments and overall dickishness and they aura quickly fades away. Yes tesla wouldnt be what it is today without him, but i think now they could survive just fine without him. Wouldnt be the first time elon was ousted from a company (paypal). Would be nice to own my tesla and not have to deal with elons stupidity.
5 more positions in Elons company now available!

Lol at buying twitter for free speech.
SpaceX Said to Fire Employees Involved in Letter Rebuking Elon Musk
In an email, Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s president, said the letter had made other employees “feel uncomfortable, intimidated and bullied.”

Is there any realistic prospect of him being ousted? Would be nice to see Tesla being run properly rather than by the eccentric whims of one person

With all the entitlement issues in the bay area can you really blame the guy for layoffs? Its a contest in the workplace for who can do the least amount of work
Oh man, next thing you know he won't delver FSD when they say they will!

If it wasn't for his "crazy" you think they would be releasing FSD betas? Or really trying FSD at all? No way.
They probably wouldn't have even survived.
It's like Steve Jobs and Apple.... they kicked him out ... and they spiraled down and were on death's door until they brought him back. Yes, now they are hugely successful, but they re-built the company around the "Think like Steve would" culture.
I think something similar would happen here as well. You need the drive of a person who has a singular vision and keeps pushing it no matter what.
Does it excuse a-hole behavior? No. But kicking Elon out would kill Tesla

Maybe before 2019 that would have been true.
I think only Elon can "kill Tesla" at this point. Is he trying to?
I have been a huge fan of his since 2010. Family have worked at Tesla. I had to mute him on Twitter and try not to mute spouse who wants me to sell the stock and "detach ourselves from this misanthropic tech bro".
BTW, Jobs died. Apple didn't.

Yes. When this Twitter deal blows up or he gets margin called over it.
If that doesn’t do it, I also have no confidence in the board.
Except they literally are. And that is per Elon.
Not sure how you can spin that but I’m certainly awaiting your attempt.
He was willing to risk everything to dominate the EV market. And it paid off. Before Tesla, EVs had limited range because companies claimed people only needed 50-100 miles range for commuting.
He also took a loss on cars to gain traction. I'm not saying another CEO won't be better, but we wouldn't have the model 3 and Y for the cost we have today, I think.
I think if Tesla gets a marketing department and Elon can be educated on proper communication strategies, things would be better. But that's not going to happen.

Where is the “sales” slowing down ? My Y release has moved from July when I ordered to Jan.
Stop the BS FUD.

BS, click bait.Tesla (TSLA) lays off more employees, and hourly ones this time despite Elon Musk's comments

Go back and read the email.
He only wrote hourly manufacturing workers won’t be laid off. Not sales.
Go read your lord Elon’s Twitter feed.
It’s not BS or FUD. Sales are slowing. We are in a recession. Take off your blinders.
Can you point me to a source besides your own feelings that Tesla sales are slowing that's not production related? Like show me sources where we have Tesla piling up unsold and being discounted.
I am in the market for a Model Y, would love to find one at a discount to be delivered immediately..checkbook ready.
