I think people like Lutz generally understand that mass production will reduce costs, but when it come to batteries they don't seem to get that every increase in battery capacity also ends up cutting cost, because it cuts the amount of raw materials needed for each battery pack
the roadster pack has almost the same amount of lithium cobalt ect as the Model S pack but, the Model S has 85kWh of storage
Are you kidding me?! Really, I mean we are talking about the one-man-show Bob Lutz here, he must be way smarter than all the people at Panasonic who've invested heavily into the Gigafactory and definitely smarter than the people at Tesla including Elon Musk himself. I'll bet lithium batteries are the same price today per kWh as they were 20 years ago.... oh wait.... errr..... never mind. Bob Lutz for president!
By the way, I like your listed location "the dude". Definitely the best place to get internet reception on that rock.
