Everybody has their own investment thesis and their own financial situation. And I respect yours.For >the last decade I have not sold a share of TSLA except for paying taxes and buying a house. On this forum and elsewhere I have been clear that a major trigger for me to sell would be the advent of general advertising. Recent events have caused me to put TSLA on my watch list. Placements to date have been highly targeted but recent use off exceedingly expensive media, including Facebook introduce higher risk.
I have not yet sold a share. If the situation moves to general advertising I will sell.
This si only indicating the careful watch, not a sale. They might just be using excellent analytics, particularly since nothing broad has yet happened.
I know numerous people think it is excellent to advertise for general awareness. I regard such opinion as erroneous simply because of inability to target likely purchasers for a product which is not and likely will not be, so ubiquitous as, say, Ozempic or Snickers or Wheaties, all of which benefit from broad advertising with modest targeting. Not so for cars, trucks and energy products.
So you will sell because of advertising even though FSD, Optimus etc all seem around the corner...?For >the last decade I have not sold a share of TSLA except for paying taxes and buying a house.

Seems clear @unk45 is NOT selling. He said pretty clearly he is watching....NOT selling.What an odd investing strategy. You are so advertising averse you are willing to sell TSLA on the verge of both FSD and Optimus breaking out into profitable businesses within the next few years?
What is it about advertising you hate so vehemently?
I view Elons optimism as his greatest leadership strength ..." Ya gotta believe "Sometimes I just wish he would not say this. Just let it play out with the new releases.
Anyway, Elon is optimistic this is solved!

I assume this is 12.x ... gotta say i am a bit irritated that i paid for FSD and still don't have 12.x on my vehicleLooks like the FSD 1-month trial is starting to go out to some:
Here's what it looks like (not sure if this is in the car or in the app. I'm guessing it's in the app):

For me if you heavily advertise this is sign your product has become commoditized. Some of the major manufactures spend $1500-2000 per car on advertising. Better to spend that money on product innovation and bring in customers that way. I think back to Honda in the 80's where there was little advertising and the cars sold themselves.What an odd investing strategy.

I totally agree...and I'd expect better from a review by Doug Demuro.
I didn't see much of anything he did to actually test the handling. No mountain roads. Not even a U-turn. Without actually testing it, Steer by Wire and 4 Wheel Steering are just specs....and it's easy to say they don't do much if you're just toodling around on suburban streets and the freeway, where handling doesn't usually matter.
On the other hand, one of the early reviews put the Cybertruck up against a professional driver in a go-kart on a tight track full of tight turns:
Of course, it was done, in part, for comedic effect...and who knows what the specs on the go-kart were. But the reviewer was thoroughly impressed, and calmly narrating and reviewing while driving this giant truck quickly around tight corners while being chased by the kart. I'd like to see how the Hummer or Rivian or Lightning would handle around a similar course...
News at 11He’s optimistic it’s solvable
I am not going to answer for @unk45 - if he chooses to say why to those of you who ask - but I am going to say that any of you who question him is showing that you either don’t pay attention or have a horrific problem with reading comprehension or have joined this group more recently thaneight seven six five four three twooneyearsweek ago
Unfortunately mods have no control at all over the software. I've reported it to the admins.
My advice is to turn off the ability to add tags, except for the original poster in that specific thread. If that's not possible, turn the feature off except for mods.
