I think Autonomy Day was an effort by Tesla to soothe investor nerves over what was about to be very bad Q1 results. It was delivered in a position of weakness so the timing was important. Battery Day, on the other hand, is being delivered in a position of strength, so the timing doesn't matter as much. Battery Day will be a message to investors (and competitors) that Tesla is a force to be reckoned with beyond the automotive sector.

I sent a message to [email protected] complaining about the constant FUD from her. Will fall on deaf ears.

I would have tweeted something to her but she already blocked me from the last time I questioned her motives.

CNBC will probably promote Lora Kolodny to an auto analyst now that you have confirmed her hard work! ;)

Don't count the new Mustang out just yet - did you see the specs?

  • Modernized Mach 1 badges on fenders and deck lid (Tesla has no badges on the fenders or the deck lid)
  • 4.5-inch exhaust tips (Why doesn't Tesla put big exhaust tips on any of their cars? Not even the Performance versions get them)
  • White cue ball shifter (evokes manly images of driving to the local bar and shooting pool with girls in denim cutoff shorts)
Tesla had better step up their game quickly if they are to capture this kind of discriminating Mustang enthusiast! /s

Ford still makes cars?????? ;)

Fred has a bad piece on Tesla out. Don't know how to link it so Fred doesn't get ad views, but here it is: Tesla has some major Model Y quality issues - Electrek

I’m sure this is impacting the share price today. I’ve seen a couple of YouTube videos about poor quality Model Y as well, a concerted effort to push a poor quality narrative for Model Y in order to hold TSLA share price down?

Interesting results. I should have made the ranges longer (6 months instead of 3) to cover longer term without having too many options.

While in the aggregate > November 2021 has the most votes (but has an infinite timeframe), this voting believes the maximum likelihood period to reach $2000 share price is between May and July 2021, e.g. a year from now.

This happens every time Tesla releases a new model. It happened with the Model S, Model X, Model 3 and, now, the Model Y.

Yet Tesla's customer satisfaction ratings are far higher than any other brand. And there are a lot of brands out there.

I'm as bullish as they get, but every new Telsa model has had teething problems, I don't see why MY would be any different.

I expect them to be less than M3 though as they will have learned and improved since then.
Ya, and the youtube clips I saw make it sound like the cars are falling apart. Not questioning anything... outright attack.

The first many thousand cars are sold to enthusiasts. I bought an early M3 and the small number of problems didn't bother me much. It was part of being "involved." I believe we'll see the same response from early MY owners.
