This rumor again.
I must admit, if this turns out to be true and the Model 2 is indeed "scrapped" then it could possibly also explain why Drew and Rohan left so abruptly. They might not agree with this course correction, just like how Franz and Lars didn't agree with it when they both talked Elon out of it years ago.
Of course I'm just theorycrafting here, none of us truly knows what's going on. Its possible Drew and Rohan really do just want to spend more time with their families, and its possible their simultaneous leaving is just a huge coincidence.
I'm not so sure though, there is a lot of FUD going on right now and a lot of it oddly converges neatly. Now with layoffs and higher ups leaving and things are really starting to get strange.
I hope Drew and Rohan did leave for family time only, I hope the Model 2 is still happening, I hope the layoffs are just the normal yearly Tesla workforce trimming.
I will admit though, I'm starting to get a bit worried. TSLA holders might be in for a rough ride over the next couple of years. Or we might get super filthy rich next year. Who the hell knows.
