As I recall her complaints were more personal, basically that Musk came off as an overconfident ass of sorts. I just didn't see that at all, I saw someone desperately struggling to keep his company alive, with great personal sacrifice.

Same here, from my point of view and its background. And not just "his company", but also 'making the idea a reality' on a genuine basis.
Buying an EV is one thing, being able to drive it beyond city limits another...
I don't think Tesla in ROTEC is anymore comparable with the Tesla of now!
LOTS has changed in a short time!
Only thing I saw was a person concerned about his business!
Keeping a business with difficulties a float needs a general who can inspire his troops! Just as in a battlefield!
What do you think a soldier will do if his commander shows he is not confident in the future? He will go to battle with less confidence too!
That is why Elon may be looking as overconfident. But the only persons who will know how he really is, are his close family and friends.
Business is like a battlefield! Only thing that does not happen are death persons, only death company's!

Totally sympathize about using Daily Mail as a source for anything. Here's the Lit Motors Thread with a link to the post on AutoblogGreen from a while back. I've more recently learned that the designer of the Aptera is working on this now.
Also, I'm ready to throw John a fiver so he can run down to the dollar store and get a better mic.

He comes through loud enough, but the quality of it is pretty rough. Yours and Nikki's voices are much, much better. It might be his sound card, I don't know.

Tesla "admitted" "300 miles @55 mph" in Geneva. Actually Tesla's website says @55mph since the "Options & Pricing" page came out end of 2011. (Except for occasional typos on the "Features" page saying @60mph for a short time(s).) Of course, the Roadsters values have been for about that speed for a long time.
