Agreed that there is no way they would refresh both at the same time. And it's anyone's guess as to when the refreshes will occur. While it's possible that the refresh, when it happens, will be just battery and motors, it's probable that a body refresh would happen at the same time just to give a new look.
Advertising using a good agency might be cost effective to improve their image and help sales medium term, even if they are selling all they can build right now. Improvement to their web site would be a good first step in a communications strategy and cheaper. Perhaps a series of videos to aid the less-informed who go to their web site:
- How the supercharger network works.
- Explain home charging and destination charging.
- How to buy a Tesla.
- How to get repairs, and how well that works.
- The warranty (you won't have to buy a new battery in a few years).
- AP and FSD.
- Show each vehicle inside and out:
- cargo room;
- what's under the hood
- good look at the interior
- two good sized people sitting comfortably in the back seat;
- drivers of various sizes in the drivers seat:
- a short person has a good view of the road;
- a tall person has leg room and room over his head;
- a fat guy has room and gracefully exits the car.
- Range.
- Routine service requirements (nil)
- A short history of the company and accomplishments
- Links to owners manuals.
- Etc.
Perhaps Citron is on the path to redemption. More power to him.Was just about to post this. Never thought I'd read something like this coming from Citron. May you live in interesting times, and all tha

The shorts will claim "Tesla is a company with a pliable balance sheet."
Not likely. Mall leases commonly have provisions for minimum rent vs percentage of sales. The greater the sales, the more rent that is due (what Blankenship refers to as "surcharges"). But mall leases also usually contain provisions establishing mandatory hours of operation and prohibitions on "going dark". The penalties are Draconian. Suffice it to say that the leases are designed to discourage such behavior, so "no more sales" would likely mean more, rather than less rent that would be due.
Of course, sophisticated parties are free to negotiate whatever terms make sense to them at the time, so the devil would be in the details of each lease. But as far as I can tell, Tesla positioned itself in upscale malls and high end retail locations (at least in the Boston metro area),. I would be very surprised if those leases are not landlord-friendly.
As to landlord incentive, in Massachusetts, there is no duty to mitigate in event of a breach of a commercial lease. Landlords are likely to do so anyway as a matter of good business practice, but nothing requires them to fill a space vacated by a deep pocketed tenant over another space in which there is no backstop. In addition, there is often a significant lag in time due to marketing period, lease negotiations, buildout and grace period, so the damages are likely to be quite high under almost any scenario.
This is why I am surprised at the decision to close so many stores so abruptly. I trust that the bean counters did their homework in advance of the decision, but it just seems rushed to me. Just my opinion. Not necessarily fact.
And made up BS and fact twisting posted even faster!CNBC is indeed very slow at posting positive Tesla news, but they are making up for it by posting negative Tesla news super fast!

Tesla's onslaught of announcements is raising red flags about demand for its cars
Man, you don't miss a beat, do you? I was just trying to make a point...That was there two or three days back, did they force it to the front page again?
A good friend bought a model 3 last fall. She is comfortable with basic computer/wireless devices but not technical.
One of many things she was not briefed on when she picked up her car was how almost anything in the car can be changed and/or improved in some way by OTA downloads. When something doesn't work as advertised or expected she doesn't know how to get help and advise. She tried calling Tesla Customer Service once and got nowhere. Is the online manual the source she should be looking to for good explanations of everything? Is it updated appropriately every time the UI or other features are changed?
Thanks in advance.

Malls in general are struggling. Sublets may not be easy to find. Maybe the malls where Tesla is are an exception.

I think you're probably about the funniest contributor to this forum. And I love and appreciate you for that.No, but they do that - you get the same shitty headline several days later. I wasn't trying to be funny, sorry if it came across like that.

Citron listens to competition – not critics
Over the years, Citron has clearly not been a fan of Tesla and we doubt Elon Musk will be the CEO for the next 10 years. Citron is also not a fan of his disrespect for the SEC and we have no doubt that he is guilty of a few REG FD violations.
And yes we are still suing for the $420 tweet
BUT
The volume of misinformation that comes through our computer on a daily basis has become breathtaking and the “vocal shorts” and critical media in this name have gone too far in their demonizing of Elon Musk.
We are not here to pick fights with anyone and we always respect solid work but let’s state the obvious on many of the vocal critics whose voices dominate the Tesla conversation.
Again, we were short the stock for several years and remain the lead plaintiff in suing Musk for his 420 tweet. However, his critics are over their skis.

Maybe. I don't believe malls are doing nearly as well as they were prior to the "every store in a mall is the same as every other mall" venue we have today. I can recall when going to malls in other cities was an adventure because of the different stores. Now it just doesn't matter. If you're not alert, you might actually forget what city you're in.Premium malls in wealthy Cities and suburbs where Tesla has stores are doing just fine. They are moving from selling "stuff" that you can buy online to "experiences" , food, and services. Virtual reality bars, trendy eateries, grooming services etc.
