Apparently, MLS Soccer Club owned by David Beckham was hoping to get sponsored by Tesla.

I would argue that Elon’s decision to build the Cybertruck in Texas is a direct message to conservative America. A very persuasive argument for free market conservatism.Lol....the Cheney/Rumsfeld interpretation of "free markets", marketed by Reagan and in place since the 70's, is literally the only reason we needed Germany to begin this renewables revolution without us.
Sure a libertarian from South Africa is now scaling everything globally, but I would argue it's despite the tooth-and-nail efforts of Reaganomicists who've been trying to bury Tesla since inception so they can maintain highly profitable centralized fossil production.
We're far more corrupt than we are "free market". Just take a look at how our utilities dictate state policy and self-regulate in the US. Never happen in democratic socialist Germany.
Amazing to read some of the comments from that article....
I don’t think all Tesla owners are “woke progressives”?
- if im still breathing in 20 years i plan to be driving a vintage 2020 pickup
- One can only imagine the carnage when and if the majority of the Woke Progressive vehicles with self driving self breaking are let loose on the streets of Houston.
- Progressives know self driving vehicles are not going to work, because we listen to the experts, not ad-men.
- It seems more likely that once on fire the men tried to escape and checked all the doors but since none would open moved s far from the fire as they could in hopes of rescue.
Of course Tesla knows of the dangers of their cars but doesn't care as long as they make money, it doesn't matter if you die at the hands of their faulty software. They need to be banned from testing with customers on public roads.- Wow! One man was 59 years old and the other one was 60 years old. I would have expected them to be in their 20s or 30s!!
- I test drove one of these cars and didn't like it at all.It brakes too late with the self braking system and I was afraid of hitting others.I tested it after driving a Subaru Outback which hit another car because it's self braking system did not stop the car fast enough
Well, apart from Tesla not doing sponsorships, one might think the MLS club in Austin could have an advantage if they ever start.Apparently, MLS Soccer Club owned by David Beckham was hoping to get sponsored by Tesla.

I wouldn't be surprised if one or more German automakers are inspiring this FUD.The amount of FUD with respect to Giga Berlin in Germany is astonishing high, even public funded ZDF is spreading it.
I am not sure Germany is all that rosy. Tesla is fighting for FUD at all front, either within MEGA, Woke or democratic socialist Germany.
There seems to be a lot of speculation at this point. If accurate, this statement lends credence to AP not being an issue,Ugly incident with Autopilot (apparently): two dead after a collision on a tree. Allegedly, no one was in the driver seat.
‘No one was driving the car’: 2 men dead after fiery Tesla crash near The Woodlands, officials say
Two men are dead after a Tesla ran into a tree in Spring.www.click2houston.com
Right. But can you imagine NPR did this by photoshopping someone's tweet? Photoshopping a tweet is another level beyond clickbait headline.I wouldn't be surprised if one or more German automakers are inspiring this FUD.
"One house"..that's one hell of a house. That's like a half a mile drive..lol.There seems to be a lot of speculation at this point. If accurate, this statement lends credence to AP not being an issue,

Ford + Cadillac offer Driver Monitoring Systems that would have prevented these deaths. Why is Tesla behind on DMS safety?
I am pretty sure any car with bowling ball on the accelerator would kill people too.
I completely cut off Alex Roy a few years ago when he wrote an article accusing Fred and Tesla of being in collusion with each other. It dripped with jealousy and resentment over what he perceived as favoritism.
It is weird that it's taking so long - but I doubt it is a real priority internally for Tesla now. Compared to starting up the next 2 Gigas, or scaling Y production in China, the S/X being a couple of month's late isn't a big deal.What is taking Tesla so long to deliver the S/X refresh? Weekend rant incoming.
IIRC, Feb was supposed the month of the first deliveries. So what happend? A missing piece here or there, sure. But wouldn‘t Elon move heaven and hell to get a missing trim piece and would it take 2 month at least? Guess not. So it has to be something more substantial. So what could it be? Did they figure their Kato Road roadmap is progressing faster than planned and a delay of S/X refresh could bring 4680 right now instead of late 2021 with Plaid+? What else is worth / could cause a few month of delay?
Here's where I've determined that the car crashed. The fire hydrant and manhole are just to the left of the yellow line and somewhat below the arrowhead. That's more obvious in a Google Earth expanded view:
