Someone needs to read what V-Victory Red-Shirt, last row on the left, has for official production numbers in the notebook clenched in her left hand.
If it is a bear trap, that’s a fresh example of the journalistic intentionality that @Fact Checking just spoke of....hmm
Hey, you, Happy New Year and all that! By my reckoning, that makes it 2.999: Shaddrach on Twitter Now that's a wrap: InsideEVs on Twitter Actually, only posted to show off my new avatar - that's Snufkin... (name taken form the Tove Jansson Moomin books )
I keep seeing forum members releasing personal details about themselves. Are they not worried about being doxxed? EVs are still pretty out there remember. Oh wait - it's 2019 - I thought we had gone back to 2009 again for a moment. Forget what I said...
You are a winner and I give up the #1 spot for the coming model Y to you! A good deed should not go unrewarded.
I think we should give @AudubonB and @ggr a lot more slack and a lot more credit for modifying the moderation policies of this thread than a 'finally' negative adverb ... There's many disadvantages to 'fire hose' forums as well: discussions get quickly lost in the high volume, not everyone has the time to meaningfully follow ~10 pages of posts with 200 posts per day, the discussions can get more shallow in general, Expecting more self-discipline from otherwise intelligent members and expecting them to not post off-topic in the 'Market Action' thread was an IMHO overall very defensible mistake to make. I also think it's a good trait to listen to feedback and change direction. Let's see how this works out?
The point is that's what it ended up being anyway. Splitting the discussion was a worthy experiment that didn't work.
Fast Checking - can you share some info on who you are without revealing who you are? Any book recommendations?
This in spades. I do not follow all news sources as closely as some here. BUT almost without fail when I see an article about Tesla either in print or video there is a negative slant. If it is a CNBC video there is ALWAYS a phrase like "Crazy Elon" or "Wild CEO". It has gotten a little better... but how the success of Tesla is not celebrated with at least equal amounts of press is sad and a little disheartening. So I don't expect the press to be a cheerleader but I do expect it to not actively try and drive the company down. It is our job to point out the failings in this regard IMHO.
Rich Rebuilds documents a real bear case for Tesla, they can't get their *sugar* together. It's just embarrassing at this point.
