Workmanship on those was incredible and the nickel iron batteries....many still work.

Interesting - re TSLA options volume & volatility - in principle, this should help make the options market more liquid, and/ or may also distort some prices

Ah, yes....cnbc....the "news" station full of experts.
Careful.....watching them will make one cynical and a bit jaded.

Another scenario could just be Tesla bull flagging until q4 results, bleeding out options. Price may fluctuate between 1050 and 1200, current trying to fill gap created by Musk's selling dump from two weeks ago.
Stock split speculation and 10.5 may attribute to the current gap fill is my guess.
Beta 10.5 is my first new release after getting into the program. Wow. Huge difference in how smooth the vehicle drives. In 10.4 the wheel would often be extremely jerky, now it's like a human much of the time. Everyone else seems similarly impressed.

Look like Tesla Bots were already in secret production as they are now posting job openings for Tesla Bots at CA and TX
Online interviews should be a cake-walk for them.

On ordering a Tesla Roadster II with rocket boosters I heard that prior to activation of the boosters one might need to get a medical exam due to the high G force.
Not sure when this new vehicle will be made but may want to get medical clearance prior to ordering the boosters. I believe the cost is $250,000 without boosters?

Interesting feminist take on electric cars:Personally, I would give the credit for electrifying the car to Detroit Electric.
This article proposes that electric cars - 1/3 of the European market in 1900 - failed because they were seen by men as being too feminine. Early electric cars were first with roofs, didn't require heavy cranking to start, and had no oil which got on your dress.
Of all the ways the establishment has tried to suppress the inevitable switch to EVs, I believe it!
Opinion: Ladies only: Why men snubbed the original electric car
Battery-fuelled vehicles are seen today as futuristic, but were commonplace in the early 1900s – at least until gender stereotypes got in the way

So good to know they’re nearing the end of consultation for a ‘construction’ permit.

I find your lack of faith dusturbing.
Similar things in the US. Apparently Henry Ford's wife and her lady friends all had EVs from Detroit Electric. She liked it so much she tried to convince her husband to work with him on EVs. From what I can tell our friends in the oil lobby were just too influential and EVs were crowded out.Interesting feminist take on electric cars:

Electric Cars for Well-to-do Women - The Henry Ford
Though expensive, electric cars started instantly (without hand cranking) and ran cleanly and quietly. In the early 20th century, they were touted as elegant, comfortable, and easy-to-operate – ideal vehicles for the style-conscious female consumer.

It's a shame that in 2021, there are still plenty of toxic wimps who claim to be "men" that consider you as less than straight if you own an EV.
I really would love to see the comments/questions that were made. Are they published? Translated?
I've also been watching FSD Beta videos, and driver reactions agree it's much improved. I'm dying to try it! Score 99, switched to the iPhone yesterday just in case (not needed for beta, but WOW what a nice phone and want the in cabin camera feature).
No wonder Apple stock does well... just wait until 25% of ALL Transportation is Tesla. (Then watch Tesla come out with their own phones, lol.) I'm sure many of you know of the parallels in quality and performance between Apple and Tesla. But the phone is another example of not knowing how good something is until you Test Drive it.
So how long before Tesla is 25% of the Market - 25 in 25?
My Bull Case Vehicle Prod (Tesla/Other)
'21 = 1M/20M
'22 = 2M/18M
'23 = 4M/16M
'24 = 6M/14M
'25 = 8M/12M
It's a stretch and would require 100% growth/year. OR, 50% growth and ICE becomes the "Unknown/Other" category eventually. I slow down Tesla growth after next round of greenfield factories (if even needed), and think total sale of vehicles drops quickly at the same time. So % rises faster than we think, especially knowing how Car Dealerships are trying to front run their margins with the sticker price and jacking up the prices like with the Mach-e.

Not me..... I imagine it would be like reading the comment section in.....well, any news forum.
What in-cabin camera feature? (As far as I know the only thing the in-cabin camera is used for is driver monitoring.)
Even Henry Ford's wife Clara Jane drove one (until the invention of the electric starter for the car by Kettering in 1911)Personally, I would give the credit for electrifying the car to Detroit Electric.
That’s how you get the price up over short periods of time..it’s been going on for years. The difference now is that everyone has learned how to play the game. A stock split will just make this more available and volatile. It’s all good though.
