Depending on the 16 sales centers selected, the delivery estimates could very wildly. I charge at the highland Park, il supercharger and a guy in the service center always gives me to info on deliveries, which were roughly 40 customers cars last month, not employees. Every time I check through the big garage doors, the back is filled with model 3s, at least 10 there now parked inside in tight formation. If 100 service centers did the same it would be 4k, though I know that's not the case. He did say the goal for February was 4,000.

Launching Falcon Heavy before market close the day after a "markets in turmoil" and the day before a Tesla ER? We haven't had this much IV/momentum generation in a while. Phew!

Elon better not have stowed away in his roadster.

What I don't get is why people are rightfully upset about the small group of monkeys but absolutely don't care about the more evolved species that breathes it every single day out there on the street, i.e. my kids when walking to school.

IMHO that is the real scandal, and while the german carmakers were the first caught with the defeat devices, I don't think they are the only ones:

Lawsuit Claims GM Used Defeat Devices On Duramax Diesel Trucks And SUVs

and

Four more carmakers join diesel emissions row (honda, mitsubishi, mercedes, ...)

This was already known 2015 Wide range of cars emit more pollution in realistic driving tests, data shows

IMHO this should be the wakeup call for the average person to demand emission free vehicles and diesel truck bans in cities.

One thing I'd really love to see replaced with electric versions is the school buses. Every day when I drop off and pick up my son at school I am disgusted by the black smoke coming out of the school buses idling for long times in front of the school while all the kids are breathing that toxic gas.

Maybe Elon should offer an electric school bus along with the semi truck.

Was Elon sending a message having "Don't Panic" displayed on the Roadster payload on the video of the Falcon Heavy launch?

 

[Tslynk67]

What a launch!

Indeed, he's a Hitchhikers nerd too

Had a nice game of whack-a-mole the last hour, but looks like we won.

Never gets old.. absolutely amazing. I cant imagine this being anything less then a complete success. What happened to the center core?

Larry Elder (trader from elder.com) from this morning (via a newsletter):

"I think this is the start of a serious correction. Typically a double bottom. First a severe stab down (which is what we got), then a feeble rebound rally, then a slide into a scary but lower volume second bottom a month or so later. And then the bull market resumes, having shaken out a whole lot of people in that correction. I would sit tight and work on a shopping list."

It has been proven that it is impossible to predict the movement of a system like this with 2 moving parts affecting each other.

How many moving parts is the economy expected to contain?

Larry Elder fella assumes to be able to predict the economy while we as a civilization still fail to predict the movement of 2 pieces of metal stuck together?

It appears the centre core was lost.

Given the bath many of us are taking presently

A bath? I made more than $1k today, most of it from TSLA.​

Have you found his analysis to be pretty good in the past?

I personally think the guy is hit or miss. But he’s got a lot of followers and is well-known in the trader community.

It would’ve been a crime against humanity to allow TSLA to be in the red on the day it begins its journey to Mars.
