This is something most people don't understand in the general public.So we are almost at the same place as the beginning of December. What we went down in December we went up in January (more or less)
What purchase?Yes.
But back then, they claimed that the downfall was due to certain purchase.
Interesting that in 2 months, all of that narrative has pretty much dissapeared.
Heat pumps work better at a near constant temperature. If you are going to use a set back temp you want to ramp them up at a slower rate like 1 degree per hour (and use a smaller set back so that isn't an issue).Even on a heat pump, 98% of the year is great - but I'm finding a need to run it consistently throughout the day during near/at freezing temperatures. The heat pump I got (Carrier) doesn't work as well as a gas furnace during these freezing temps (specifically in the mornings to ramp up from 64 degrees to 70) and I'm looking into insulation to cover for the inefficiency.
Really wish Tesla sold a home heat pump.
This is something most people don't understand in the general public.
I am certain most here do.
If you invest $100k into a stock and it drops 50%, it's now worth $50K.
If then it goes back up 50% it's worth about $75K.
For any drop, you basically need a double to return to the beginning.
Hence, a 50% drop needs a 100% increase to bring you back to the original $100K.
I am not stating this to be a Debbie Downer, just to say whenever you can save on the way down, for example saving 10%, means you don't need a 20% gain to get back to your previous price.
Or, you can HODL like I do, and not worry about this sugar.
Those cars are going in and out like a fiddler's elbow
Allegedly lots of 4680 Model Y available now in USA (or part of it)
Yeah, but it's more dramatic on the way back up!So we are almost at the same place as the beginning of December. What we went down in December we went up in January (more or less)
Schaeffer's - this morning:
Tesla Stock Surges on Ramped Up China Production
Matt Jung's inventory chart shows a spike up in US model Y's available, so seems plausible.Allegedly lots of 4680 Model Y available now in USA (or part of it)
"Jesus, Tesla just added a shitload of sub $55K Model Y to LA SF and NY..."
Edit: I'm not sure if this number is unusual, or a misunderstanding.
BI actually posted an article about that Tesla driver who drove off the cliff. They cited an automotive expert who said that being in a Tesla (weight on the bottom, super strong roof etc.) contributed to their safety.Someday, after a few violent head-on collisions have happened between Tesla's and various other brands of cars, the press might still whitewash the massive life/death safety disparity between brands, but the neither the national safety institutes nor the insurance companies will be able to remain silent.
Yeah, on the main vehicle (for S,3,X,&Y) ordering page, there is a new link for "See Early Delivery Options for <zipcode>"The 4680 Model Y AWD is not yet available through the configurator. So the only way they're sold is via inventory.
Given the LR delivery dates are March-May now, I'm sure these will go fast.
EDIT: Just looked these up myself, and there's new text I haven't seen on the inventory screen before. They say things like "Coming soon to New York for local delivery." And the Vehicle Details screen says "In Production."

So they're not even really in inventory. Tesla is just giving people the opportunity to purchase a Model Y AWD as it's being built.
I have expected 4680 LFP since battery day.MODS: If there is a better thread for this discussion, please feel free to move.
I have been following the Tesla energy/megapack XL story and it sounds incredible. One of @Zerosumgame33 (the main proponent of this thesis on Twitter), has been saying that switching to LFP chemistry for stationary storage will reduce costs. However, in the recent Giga Nevada announcement, Tesla has said that the factory will produce 4680's that will be used in stationary storage.
However, I remember somewhere that Elon has said the 4680's would not use LFPs. So, has Tesla's strategy changed regarding LFP and 4680 or is this a potential flaw in the bullish case for Tesla energy?
The TE story sounds too good to be true which fuels my inherent skepticism but I'd like to have better/concrete reasons for supporting or disputing the bull case.
You make lots of good points. This isn’t a correction, it’s a tiny niggle or aside even.If you invest $100k into a stock and it drops 50%, it's now worth $50K.
What are peoples best guesses for 2023 CT production?
I'm guessing 10,000 by the end of this year, and 100,000 next year. Expecting to see the first production in Q3, a few hundred, then rest during Q4. Thoughts?
I think that Lathrop will continue to use Chinese LFP but those Megapacks will increasingly be exported. There may be a way of avoiding/offsetting duties when importing for the purposes of export?
Wait… this was on city streets driving around? If so, this is almost certain to be one of the beta trucks Nobody has seen yet.Cybertruck sighting in the wild, complete with side mirrors:
I think anybody who sells TSLA before the cybertruck starts appearing on SU roads is really going to kick themselves. Other auto companies would give anything to generate the amount of free press this truck will generate. And when it does, a lot of it will be people who hate it, and do not understand its appeal, and wil honestly try to tell themselves that because *they* dont like it, nobody else will... such is the way of social media bubbles.

~45-47 minute mark: I'd buy a Tesla minivan in an instant. Especially if you could remove all the seats and make it more versatile. While the X's falcon doors aren't as bad as I feared, I still would rather just have a sliding door...Sandy today...
Always interesting
