Could Model Y actually be produced earlier than stated?
... If Tesla does a capital raise. Can't imagine an accelerated schedule without that. Tooling is expensive. They basically have to build a third auto plant at GF1

Could Model Y actually be produced earlier than stated?
I can.I can’t blame Don too much for this.
As was I until another TMCer pointed it out.Oh, thanks for pointing that out! I was unaware of it.
I can.
Yeah, we just had a huge pileup of cars in February, due to blizzard conditions. It involved over 100 cars with 71 injured. Only problem is, autopilot likely would not have helped since visibility was so poor. It came on pretty suddenly. I don't think we have an answer for that. Fortunately, there was only 1 death (plus a cat - sorry @Krugerrand).
Where's our institutional investor that stopped by over the weekend? If I remember correctly, he said he was extremely bullish on the stock. I'd be interested in his take on the SEC effect.
Hello All, thank-you for the incredible insights over the years....first post here....
Is it possible that the Tesla Network could be spin-off from Tesla....thus the "Investor" wording of the April 22nd event ?
Some sort of corporate structuring to make visible the latent potential of the Tesla Network ?
Customary apologies for my tardiness (500+ comments in arrears), and maybe already mentioned, but:Excellent question. The reference to "investor" wording could actually be referring to existing investors (shareholders). A spinoff of the Tesla Network to existing shareholders would be a boon to the share price as the market would assess the value of the autonomous program vis-a-vis Waymo and other similar projects. As long as the Tesla initiative were seen to be at least equal to the others, there would be a quantum repricing of the stock. In addition, a spinoff would cause massive problems for the shorts, IMO.
- Most people will not share their car on the platform. Americans, especially middle aged and older, see their cars as private extensions of their personal space.
- Those that do are more likely to be SR/SR+ owners. Maybe I'm just unable to escape my first bullet point but I don't see many people that own P3Ds renting their car out to random people. I sure as heck wouldn't rent my car on Turo...but if it drove itself? Maybe I would after all, though the value proposition isn't as great.
Yeah me too! And to think I get some kind of referral something for just telling people about Tesla and driving them around in official Teslyftber would be great. I'd do it for swag and extra warranty coverage. If it's swag guess what everyone is getting for Christmas?I would love to drive people around today and sell the car. I am the lethal weapon for Tesla. I keep pulling people on board without a drive... Imagine if they were in the car. I should look for this post I did last yr on how to sell the car. Qualifying the passenger and the sequence of info are key.
Model 3 doesn't quite fit the Uber Black idea IMO. I think of town cars and I think most do the same.
Lastly, one of my biggest frustrations is that I cannot even set waypoints, so if I enable NOA it will drive me the way it wants to go and I have no way to set the route.
And in this scenario, would/could the ATC be privately held? Not traded publically?Customary apologies for my tardiness (500+ comments in arrears), and maybe already mentioned, but:
HEUREKA!!
Wild idea: Could this be the moment of presenting that stock owner offer that some here have suggested lately?
To wit: For every X number of TSLA shares, Y number of spinoff shares in a new Autonomous Vehicle Company are being offered -- free or for a more or less symbolic price. All loaned TSLA recalled, @~25%?
Instant short pressure, two days before Q1-19 ER.
What will that do to the present depressed share price?
Not an advice (TM)
BTW: Original date proposed, 19 April, is Good Friday, a bank holiday (?), so low likelihood reaching investor professionals. Hence the move to 22 April in spite of time constraints to ER. I guess, again.
I don't see anybody renting out premium Teslas for $1/mile for the first 4-6 years of car's life. After than? I sure do. Even middle aged and seniors.
T Rowe dumped more shares, almost 90% of shares since Q3 to Q1. They had like 12,000,000 shares in Q3. Only holding 900k now. Wonder who else dumped

I'm on margin for the first time in years. There's been price pushes down with volume trying to push SP down. But it's managed to always come back to within a fraction of the earlier SP. I take that as a positive given all the FUD. And quite a few people including even in this posting thread either disbelieve or discount FSD and ridesharing. Or the 500k production for the next 12 months. Or whatever. So I think the negative sentiment is pretty baked in and the true longs who haven't sold are going to hold for a while.This is the first time in a long time that I am holding some on margin overnight...
