Why lol?? He has countless advantages:
- He'd give the Tesla board some ... weight and muscle.
- Maybe shorts would think twice whether to mess with the Tesla?
- He's also the rags to riches blue collar hero that would be the perfect guy to introduce the Tesla Pickup Truck.
- Also, should it come to it, the Tesla committee that oversees Elon's tweeting habits would require some real ... power, to wrestle Elon's smartphone from him, should it be required?
Jerry Brown will be available soon.I nominate Bill Nye. He has a good reputation as an alternative energy advocate and “science guy”.

Frankly, in this price range (35-44K) there are probably a measurable amount of people who can only get LESS than the $7500 tax credit, so the $3750 for H119 may be enough for them to be able to maximize their savings, probably assuming that we get a SR, non PUP version in that time frame. Some states are talking about increasing their REBATES, CA is one, and also adding even MORE rebates for lower income buyers (less than about 65K household). So, that could not only fill in a gap created in the federal credit for H119, but in some respects add even MORE savings to a buyer as they are more likely to be rebates and not credits.
Your point is something to model for sure, but I don't really see it dropping too much (single percentage points maybe) in H119 in NA. It will probably be impossible to actually see in the numbers though as other markets are opening up during that period so OVERALL demand and sell through will still be strong.
Not sure what you mean by "measurable". Does that mean 1% or 10% or 50% ? All are measurable.Frankly, in this price range (35-44K) there are probably a measurable amount of people who can only get LESS than the $7500 tax credit,
Monetization of Instagram is already driving people off of Instagram.
Seems to me that Facebook is a self-defeating business. Any way in which they can make money alienates their customers. You might have thought Google would have had the same problem, and they kind of do, but people accept advertising results as one of the results of a search; not so much when they're chatting with friends and associates.
To bring this back around, Tesla's quite the opposite: people accept that cars cost lots of money, so Tesla has plenty of ways to make money.
Former (but it can be extended for good cause.)when is the new chairman due date? after sec settlement 45 days or judge signature 45 days?
I haven't heard of tesla making vans. Where did this rumor start?So, I have to think that this is a full-size van, and full-size vans are quite common for last-mile delivery worldwide with reliable demand, and could complement the Semi nicely, as well as being used for transporting people (think airport shuttles, vanpooling, and the like).
Minivans intended for passenger use are a declining market in the US, true, but that's not what Tesla is making if it's based on the Pickup.

Wow, no wonder we don't see any then. That's nothing.Commercial van sales in the U.S. is maybe 30,000/month?
I think what Tesla will come out with is their first version of the light duty truck with an open bed. Musk will call that a pickup. But as a cab forward vehicle it's as much of a van as it is a pickup. So the second vehicle is a van. There is overlap between a pickup with a cap and a van. So I don't see why Tesla would not design to address both markets. Also, the pickup is very North American centric, and Tesla is certainly planning to design world vehicles.
Completely out of style in US for consumers. No one wants to be see in one of those junkies.Europe is filled with them. They're everywhere but they're usually quite small though.

One possibility is Tesla wants to go with a Wall St insider. If so, I'd suggest Timothy Geithner, Obama's treasury secretary during the 2008 crisis.If Larry Ellison becomes chairman, I will buy with both hands, feet, knees and toes. I suggest you do too. This is an advice
Elon has mentioned possibly making mini-buses based on the Model X chassis. (If that is what they mean by van.)
Cheers Tim!Not really. Wall St just wants someone who will deliver the goods predictably. They don't care about climate change. Tim Cook had a good answer to AGW deniers.
