Remember some German C-suite saying Tesla reaching 500 would “defy the laws of physics”?
I caught his reaction:

Craves Electrolytes
TeslaQ Response..."Elon said completed drive, notice how he conveniently left out that they had to stop and charge those dangerous and fireWell…

He didn't say it was on a single charge... (Though it likely was on a single charge.)Well…

He didn't say a lot of things. Why post about going 500 miles with 81,000 GVW if it wasn't on a single charge? It's more than implied. Now if the 300 mile version went 500 miles, I would assume there was a charge required.
Same as Mr. Gates, who probably closed his short position and maybe is ready to ride the next leg up

Agree. Chaos is the new normal. It seems to me that all the folks on the "inside" with their special permissions/exceptions stand to make money hand over first while this volatility remains and so I don't see things changing any time soon.

Very interesting. Any other large cap tech stocks to compare to? Seems like FTD is ignored corruption.
New China COVID cases today: a tad under 40k.
Numbers still climbing, lockdowns failing to contain outbreak so far.

I think the big question is why was this only done / validated now when the big semi release event is days away?
Shouldn't this have been done a while ago with one of the validation or prototype units?
I suppose one can just extrapolate the energy usage out to a full discharge of the pack, but it always sounds better to have actually proven it in real life.
Would love to by a fly on the wall when they do the testing
Tesla Semi receives warning from Daimler Trucks CEO on 'difficult' trucking market
The Tesla Semi is coming, and the trucking industry’s big players are starting to take notice. Among these is Daimler Trucks CEO Martin Daum, who recently stated that his firm is taking the all-electric long hauler from the Silicon Valley company very seriously. While this is the case, though...

Would not surprise me. The specs were obviously “aspirational” when they were revealed in 2017
I have _all_ the data files and am getting better at filtering out stuff. so ask me for a specific ticker and time period, but patience is paramount.
(raw data is called cnsfails in twice a month datasets)
So, you get 24 data sets per year, zipped/compressed, around 1 megabyte or so each file, 12 years and more, about 2/3 of a million lines as a text file that you _have_ to add .txt by renaming each
import to excel, data is delimited by "|" (vertical bar) and starts with yyyymmdd format and is reported (supposedly) every day so needs sorting and copy/paste to another excel
I suppose there is a far easier way, but I last programmed in Fortran 4 and interpreted Basic
STILL no idea why there were no TSLA FTD"s reported November/December 2018/first half January 2019. last data on 10/29/2018. next data 1/23/2019 (Month day year) or 29/10/2018 - 23/1/2019 (DMY), they skipped over 80 days it seems
So give me a Ticker and a date range and i'l get back. BUT this is a Tesla forum
After 2019 Trump signed a law that increased the weight capacity of an EV powered truck to have a max total weight of 82000lb vs 80000lb. The original spec and announcements were based on 80k lb prior to the law change.
I highly doubt it. They've been driving the prototypes for years now, I'm sure they've range tested, tweaked, improved, and validated many aspects of the semi along the way.
They are only speaking publicly about it now!
Might be their plan. "We tried our best, it wasn't our fault, it was those protesters..."
