Tesla’s Chief Information Officer leaves the automaker as part of reorganization
I wonder if the Tripp hack contributed to this.

It is amusing you think anyone would pay half of cent for trolling on niche forum full of Tesla fanboys. That money would be utter waste.
Hey, maybe some people really believe in various silly things they type in posts? I know, shocking and unheard of. Easier to think that anyone writing things you don't like is paid to do that.
Either way I doubt your demands of censorship will be meet.
I think you are sufficiently long on this forum to know that no one here gives a sugar about hybrids and that "electrified vehicles" phrase will be meet with derision. They are considered distraction at the best, and deliberate foot-dragging at worst.

You are right about the small streets. I come from an Audi A8 and am waiting for my Model 3. Just last time I drove the Audi to my Italian summer house I had my side view mirror touch an oncoming vehicle. Twice. It's not that anyone needs to stop or anything like that, but still. Having tried the Model S for a day, I am looking forward to driving the Model 3. But I am going to miss my detachable tow bar.

One is a fact and a single data point. One is a cumulative estimate.
BTW personally I think Bloomberg tracker is too low. I think 50k cumulative production is about right, taking out the 12k up to Q1, we're at ~38k in Q2.
both are estimates, not every VIN leads to a delivery or even a produced unit, VINS are often even skipped intentionally

Ex-Tesla employee accused of sabotage is crowdfunding $500k to support legal battle
He's got 1% of his goal in pledges so far.

And as I commented on this elsewhere: the fact that no ambulance chaser (or even a big firm) jumped on this to do it for free or on a success fee base shows he has nothing. If he had a case/reasonable defense, many would have jumped on the opportunity of doing this for publicity for their firm and even a handsome payday once they counter sue.
I guess when you are blowing that whistle by leaking to the media, stealing corporate data, etc. as opposed to going to the proper authorities, this is what you get.

We should all pitch in and help him out. The resulting court case should be hillarious.

All the rich Tesla shorts who profited from the 8 year ago IPO run up to $350 should have no problem coming up with 500 large.

Good idea, except I have better uses for my $5.
Color [me] un-surprised. Keef donated $50! The cesspool is self-breeding.
Ok, i was totally going to ignore this post and just end a pointless argument, but this is too funny.
1, The i3 is not in the same class (price or size) with the S or the X. This is like saying Mercedes sold much more C-class than BMW sold 7 series and X5.
2, as much as some of the lazier reviews would like to claim, the iPace is not a Model X competitor either. Now sure, there will be some cross shopping, but once again it's like saying the new BMW X3 is going to kill the Mercedes GLS. Not the same size/class. Having said that, the iPace will be a great Model Y competitor and will even have 1-2 years of advantage on the market. But for its size it is overpriced, and there is no widespread 100Kw charging infrastructure. I am sure it will be a successful car as the market is pretty big and it has no direct competitor right now. But it is a Model 3 sized car priced as the Model X. Also, they needed a 90kWh battery pack to get Model X 75D range (iPace is EPA 220, X is EPA 237), so i am not quite sure how they plan to compete on price once competition arrives. But for now they can carve out a niche.
3, Speaking of Model Y competition, the last reports I've seen on the iX3 from this April say BMW plans to launch it "in 2020", not "next year".

Hmmm, I trust your german's better than my google translate. But I have a hard time reconciling that against a report that got actual confirmation.
Either Kruger's exaggerating (you'll have to tell me how likely that is, since I honestly don't know much about Kruger's past claims), or the wsau confirmation was worded for a slightly different question and thus taken out of context and therefore misleading.
Seriously, i3? Less than 100 mile range? Suicide doors so that you can't drop off your kids at school? Bicycle tires that cost you arm and leg to buy? No fast charging capabilities=?
One of my friends has it and that was what I heard from him. Seriously the new leaf is much better than that piece of junk.
