How could a thread based on a pending blog post that is a week late possibly go off-topic ??
With all this extra time, and the number of ppl watching this thread, I'm surprised nobody has written a fake blog post.
While I hate to use the tired Jobs/Musk analogy, I've got to whip it out here. Remember when Apple needed a "professional" CEO (Sculley) to take over from the inspirational but impetuous Jobs? Then Jobs left, company lost direction, almost went out of business... Until Jobs came back? Careful what you wish for. Most companies either never had or grew past an inspirational 'founder' (I recognize Musk did not found Tesla, but I don't know what other term to use). This company is so much about his vision that if you pull him out, I'm not sure what you have. Maybe Model 3 stablility is the time, but I think the broadened strategy (transport + energy) requires him around a while. For those who love the product who are frustrated because Musk is not conventional... Get used to it!
@Lex you must be reading a different forum. I saw a rather large proportion of members here who did not care for the 7.0 UI version, and disdain for media player universal. So everything reported sounds on target as good reaction to customer input. Best not to rue what is missing from 8 (eg waypoints) until we see it.
Dudes, I just realized why Elon's blog post got delayed! Burning Man just wrapped up. He's been on a bender in the desert!
Hope he wasn't caught up in this:
Revolution against 'rich parasites' at utopian Burning Man Festival as 'hooligans' attack luxury camp
No news, way off topic.Hmmm.... haven't been here in awhile since I got the MX but I heard about the 8.0 update. Delayed due to the SpaceX fire? Any real news? What will be included? How far back do I need to go to see any real information? Most of this is way off topic.
Go to the beginning and scan a few pages, then skip to the end if you want to join us here in MS land! Enjoy that MX!Hmmm.... haven't been here in awhile since I got the MX but I heard about the 8.0 update. Delayed due to the SpaceX fire? Any real news? What will be included?

JB is his Tim Cook. (sorry JB;-)Agree...but to continue the analogy, Elon needs a Tim Cook, COO, etc. Even his biggest fan would have to agree, he routinely makes statements that show he's a little lost in the C suite. Steve Jobs liked to micromanage details in a way that prevented him from having the time to actually run a company. Elon seems no different. Apple had a board that was responsible for maintaining the company long-term. Tesla currently has no real board. If they did, the board would reject the current situation as irresponsible. I think that is coming. The 'visionary' has a road show to do...lots of interviews, etc. wink, wink.
Or....sorry Tim Cook!JB is his Tim Cook. (sorry JB;-)
No, JB is the CTO of Tesla Motors and he is also in charge of Tesla Energy. His technical expertise in the areas of EVs and storage batteries is exceptional. He has no time to be the COO of Tesla Motors.JB is his Tim Cook. (sorry JB;-)
