Feels like the effect will be limited. Anybody you can talk to you probably already talk to, just a convenience of not having each of us dig for the same answers separately.
From the meeting, it seems like superchargers and service centers are recognized by Tesla as a key driver of demand. Elon talked about Trans-Canada highway for example which does not appear to be densely populated in large stretches.
It's a little ridiculous to pick on Tesla over leather steering wheels when there are much bigger fish to fry! I thought Elon handled her questions well. If you want to be an environmental Puritan, there's always plenty to pick on, like why it's taking so long to put more solar panels on GF1, why GF3 will be using natural gas, etc. It's important instead to focus on the big picture.
OT but..... you can be for animal welfare and be against PETA. Honestly PETA sucks big time. They are the NRA of animal groups. (You can love guns and be against the NRA too).
Don't you think he knows that? It almost drove him nuts, literally, at times last year and early this year. One thing that was encouraging today, at least in getting the message across that it affects Tesla advocates as well, was the large amount of applause that followed that question being asked. I think he's frustrated as hell by the huge amount of FUD out there, but doesn't have an answer that will satisfy everyone. Actually I don't know if there is a central solution. But one thing that has been mentioned that I agree with is establishing a marketing team whose sole goal is the enhancement of the Tesla brand. I hope the management team and the board can establish and follow through with that.
