I thought we outlawed slavery?Fortunately, I own two welders.![]()
Cars for me has always been just a means to get somewhere as a last resort choice and I only ever owned a car right out of school because I had to commute far away for work. So I've never experienced a luxury car and hence my taste hasn't been honed and refined to that of a connoisseur. From that perspective Tesla Model 3s are amazing. And looking at the number of Toyota owners upgrading to 3 I am pretty sure Tesla will be fine.
Perhaps they can cater to the richer clients with luxe interiors in the future once the mission of saving the earth's climate is achieved.
are you telling me the Fed can buy individual corporate bonds but @Krugerrand is not allowed to own a couple welders?I thought we outlawed slavery?
Pretty sure there's going to be a whole industry that gets established on Patina patterning on aluminium once Cybertruck start getting delivered.
You would need an inert gas welder to weld 30x SS.
And etching. I’ve already got my design picked out.
If you have this laser-engraved into one of your Cybertruck body panels:

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 10, 2020, Tesla, Inc. and Tesla Motors Netherlands B.V. (collectively, “Tesla”) and Panasonic Corporation and Panasonic Corporation of North America (collectively, “Panasonic”) entered into an amendment and restatement (the “2020 GTC”), of the General Terms and Conditions entered into between Tesla and Panasonic on October 1, 2014, as amended, which governs certain agreements for Panasonic to manufacture lithium-ion battery cells for Tesla at Gigafactory Nevada. The 2020 GTC, among other things, modifies the term to expire 10 years after Panasonic achieves certain manufacturing milestones.
On June 10, 2020, Tesla and Panasonic also entered into the 2020 Pricing Agreement (Gigafactory 2170 Cells) (the “Agreement”), effective as of April 1, 2020 until March 31, 2023, relating to the manufacture and supply by Panasonic of lithium-ion battery cells at Gigafactory Nevada. The Agreement is subject to the 2020 GTC and, among other things, sets forth the specific terms between the parties with respect to pricing, planned investments and new technology, as well as production capacity commitments by Panasonic and purchase volume commitments by Tesla over the first two years of the Agreement.
Tesla and Panasonic have also entered into other previously disclosed agreements relating to the production and supply of lithium-ion battery cells, and Panasonic invested $30.0 million in a private placement of Tesla common stock in November 2010.
Should be fine with this instead. I've seen hundreds in the South.

Oh, man. I have a feeling that I'll give much of my money made from TSLA back to Elon for space travel.
My apologies Tim.No more slavery jokes please.
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.
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.
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.
For what it's worth, as a kid, one magazine we always had coming was Consumer Reports. I read it cover to cover, just like everything else I got my hands on. I recall that invariably their auto reviews started with "Our review sample came with 20 (thereabouts) sample defects..." and they would go to list them. Many were commonly found, month after month, the same defects across model and manufacturer.Exactly. There isn't an auto manufacturer out there that isn't constantly dealing with defects, warranty claims, safety recalls, paint issues, etc.
