It is unfortunate that Tesla is settling these cases because even though it isn’t an admission of guilt, it is perceived that way. It also could encourage more frivolous lawsuits. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/tesla-settles-another-defect-case-125451045.html

This will probably help sales in Italy. I can see why people would have waited if they could qualify.

Longer clip. Can the board still simply just “choose” to pay Elon like she said? First I’ve heard this take.

yet another not willing to honor their original vote. Good clip though.

From the same site in 2019. “Conservative estimates put U.S. direct subsidies to the fossil fuel industry at roughly $20 billion per year; with 20 percent currently allocated to coal and 80 percent to natural gas and crude oil. European Union subsidies are estimated to total 55 billion euros...

I wasn’t referring to Starshield. https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/pentagon-buys-starlink-ukraine-statement-2023-06-01/

I had the Pilot Sport 4/S on my model S and was not impressed for driving in snow. I like the Michelin Cross Climate 2 much better.

The EVIDENCE is the fact that the leader of Ukraine, several military personnel in Ukraine and the US have made it clear it is “IMPORTANT”. Wether or not they would have fallen is based on my “expert” OPiNION. Should have been obvious. Just like anyone stating the opposite. Difficult to...

It was stupid for Tesla to have done that. Just gives the haters fuel to point to that and purposely ignore the positive. Or maybe smart because then it gets spread around and more people see it. But I’m personally no fan of false/misleading advertising.

Hopefully one day the dealership cartel can be overthrown.

Yes… just awful. They aren’t ramping production or anything. 🙄 https://insideevs.com/news/719919/tesla-cybertruck-beat-rivian-r1t-registration-march/amp/

I’ll take my chances with TX over staying in Delaware. Can already see what Delaware gave us.

I honestly don’t know what you are after. Ukraine seems to think Starlink is pretty darn important to their success. Sent you articles stating how critical it is. Here’s another. There was even a video on X a while back of several Ukrainian soldiers thanking Elon for Starlink. (Can’t find...

Radio can be jammed, no? Ukraine seems to heavily use drones. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/03/25/europe/ukraine-starlink-drones-russia-intl-cmd https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/09/08/elon-musk-starlink-ukraine-war/

There are multiple reasons (and combinations thereof) why wars are won. Anything from more determined fighters to weather. But having a good tool is better than not having one. Ukraine seems to be heavily using drones and without that capability, there is a bigger chance for defeat. Perhaps...

Why did US govt buy Starlink services for Ukraine if they could provide something better and more robust?

Elon obviously feels that there are other bigger problems that need addressing even if it does conflict with his business. Trump is being an idiot about EVs and will backtrack on his rhetoric if elected. Or he is being smart just to get the vote and then do nothing. Even republicans that have...

So… the NYT makes it sound like Starlink is inferior to other govt options but yet the US govt is relying on Starlink because the other govt options are terrible.

Wait a minute. I thought everyone hated Elon since 2022.

The transformer could be a very long wait. https://pv-magazine-usa.com/2024/03/07/a-look-at-the-great-transformer-shortage-affecting-u-s-utilities/

I often state the obvious.

Misleading photo. They just backed the CT close to it. Another post from the user stated that.

I recall reading a post on here that the board didn’t want to discuss the new pay package at all or even start it while they are still in Delaware. Didn’t want to open themselves up to possible future scrutiny if they can move to TX and then start it.

I saw one in person for the first time last week in the showroom and sat in it. I liked it. Hopefully next year the prices come down a bit and some kinks get worked out. Saw an adult son and father looking at it. They acted disinterested in it. As the father was walking away, I heard him...

What year, model and miles does your vehicle have?

CT definitely improving.

Even though the CT lost to the Porsche and I think Tesla should have been more forthcoming, the testers are certainly impressed with the CT.

Meh. I give that spastic guy two middle fingers. Never did find him funny.

Just stopped by my local Tesla showroom in West MI. Had a CT on display that I could sit in. First time I’ve seen it in person. That thing is awesome. I don’t care what the haters say. Had at least 20 sitting on the lot just delivered and spoken for. The salesperson said sales are starting...

Yup. Tesla/Elon shouldn’t have said the qtr mile and instead stuck with the 1/8. Just gives the haters fuel to point to that while they ignore how impressive the CT actually is even if it does “lose” to the Porsche in that scenario. Even Motortrend admitted that in their video. But I’m sure...

If/when Tesla can get the recurring revenue from robotaxi and Optimus with perhaps paid tasks, then Tesla will be in an apple like position and a Tim Cook can take over to streamline before going stale in a decade. Before then, I agree. Would be horrible if Elon left.

I just think it’s a simple thank you. Doesn’t show pass or fail. People often read far too much into his tweets.

I didn’t pick the 40k out of the blue. That’s what Tesla advertised. Yes, I know inflation, etc and I don’t plan on seeing this number. However, with a tax credit, it might be achievable. The model 3 has certainly been a good price near the original advertised of 35k even with inflation. I...

Yeah I know. But man, would be great though.

If Tesla can get the CT to 40k, they will fly off the lot. At 100k, sales will only go so far.

““At what point do you decide Tesla is bigger than Musk?” The entrepreneur has repeatedly claimed he never wanted to be CEO and hoped to step back and serve as chief product architect once the initial problems manufacturing the Model 3 were solved during the critical launch over six years ago.”...

It would be nice if Elon could “tone it down” on some things. But I don’t see that happening until maybe after the election. I don’t think he will buy another twitter or anything of that magnitude again. Hopefully the next big stuff is Tesla/SpaceX related.

And Leo is even wrong here. Elon was CEO of SpaceX before he was CEO for Tesla.

I don’t think he will quit if it fails. The board can offer another package. And Elon has said for years he never wanted to be the CEO of Tesla. Nothing new there.

And again, a contract is a contract. The “resolution” it could lead to is losing even more. Leo wanted Elon ousted in Jan 2023. I never trust an Uber bull because when they go negative, they go negative hard. There’s no middle ground. Dangerous either way. I hope the following happens: 1...

The vote was for an agreement made. Elon held up his end. Leo profited. Mad or not about what happened since does NOT matter about THAT vote. He can scream, sure. But for Leo to go back on his agreement after Leo was rewarded, is wrong no matter how you slice it. And trust me, all the...

They are screaming again now because the stock price is down from 300 in July. Elon didn’t sell any shares since July. And the plan passed in 2018 because it would be a massive win for shareholders even if it did cost a lot. The gains far exceeded the costs. Now post plan, there is no “gain”...

In dec 2022 was when the stock was low and going lower. Then when the stock price was around 300 in July 2023, the screams lessened. Did Elon change between December of 2022 and July of 2023? No. Just shows it’s only about the stock price.

I wouldn’t trust Leo to make rational decisions. He’s very sketch, IMO. I find that people who are super BULLS, can easily flip and go super negative. One extreme to the other. Not good. My post below is from Jan 2023 and the stock did go back up to almost 300 again as well as the Model Y...

Yeah. I referenced him a few times and definitely egg on my face now. Sad.

Interesting perspective on the lawyer payout.
