I hope this is just the start, 50k/yr globally seems cautious.
50K seems optimistic to me.

Elon Musk says Tesla will build 50,000 semis annually starting in 2024, making it a top truck company
Elon Musk said that Tesla will be building 50,000 Semi tractor trucks annually starting in 2024. The first of the Class 8 trucks will be delivered in December.www.foxbusiness.com
The current pace of "production" is basically the same as if you and a few friends cobbled them together in your garage in your free time.
Right now it is a prototype with 1 partner. This disappoints me far more than any other Tesla issue.
Pepsi said their current fleet is 21. What happened to the other 15 from their original 36?
Here it says PepsiCo took delivery of 36.
The issue, as another poster pointed out, is that Pepsi appears to have 21 at one location and 15 at another. So it depends on which spokesperson is speaking and perhaps they are only talking about one location when they mention 21.
Either way, very small, immaterial numbers for a product that was supposed to begin production in 2019 and deliver 50k of them in 2024.
Yes I received an email on the 1st May from IBKR that let me vote
Yes, they send a mail on May 1st. Nearly missed it, because in the title was about Tesla's Annual Shareholders Meeting. You will find a "Vote" button in the text.
IBKR is one of the only broker that allows voting for TSLA in Germany without any hurdles or costs.
Yep, just got the final few 1000 shares voted for now that yesterday the broker said not going to happen. Not so easy in the uk and Europe but all done now. A J Bell in the uk said the phones had not stopped ringing asking why they could not vote. Something happened to change this overnight.For UK, other non-USA locations, several brokers/providers are now allowing voting on Tesla. As far as I know this is unique and a result of a lot of customer and @TeslaBoomerMama (X/youtube) agitation/prompting.
I've voted through two of my providers. Two more to go. Had to be done via secure messages, so it looks to be a very adhoc process.
Agree. a semi truck FSD will require a significantly different training dataset than passenger vehicles. Tesla won't be able to start gathering a lot of this useful data until the semi fleet gets quite a bit larger.Its always struck me as significant that Pepsi has not (to my knowledge) highlighted or referenced FSD in their Tesla Semi's publicly at this point. This is likely strategic, to avoid staff unease now, whilst building a fleet that can be "switched on" to autonomy overnight at some future point.
Hope this showroom in your city does not do this:BYD is really going all in here in Brazil, they opened a showroom in my smallish city, need to go check it out
There are numerous Dolphins (~ Model 3 sized) operating now in the Rio de Janeiro Uber fleet. I have ridden in them, one operated by a Chinese immigrant to Brazil FWIW. Especially with heavy traffic they are much more comfortable than are the ICE ones. My next door neighbor has two Volvo EV's, one XC40 and one C40, and just acquired a BYD Tan. I have not discussed his Tan acquisition, which for those who don't know is a bit larger than a Model Y sized SUV. They are already common in my area of Rio de Janeiro.BYD is really going all in here in Brazil, they opened a showroom in my smallish city, need to go check it out
@DarkandStormy awaiting your comment on this...
Hope this showroom in your city does not do this:
There is at least one in my neighborhood, if the price was lower and the range and charging better I would really consider for the near future, that goes also to recommending to my parents, but the once in a while long trip makes it not possibleThere are numerous Dolphins (~ Model 3 sized) operating now in the Rio de Janeiro Uber fleet.

None of them are the cheapest here but they are more accessible than are most others, since BYD has established very strong and numerous dealers in several cities in Brazil.
Many people thought the cheaper Dolphin Mini (i.e. Seagull) would donate but so far it's' mostly larger models. I have yet to see a Dolphin Mini in traffic here. They are in the dealers.

Thought this would be helpful to people, Income (at least in Washington) is a strong correlative indicator of EV adoption. In a market where people are currently spending less, that's an indicator that the market is hampering growth for Tesla. Thankfully, the market is still small enough to penetrate the overall 100M vehicle market going forward as long as inflation subsides and rates decrease to fuel consumer spending.

Some other nuggets (that aren't equally 100% great but still good)...it looks like Robotaxi is the S-curve vehicle and, probably, Tesla's iPhone moment (i.e. the 5% to 25% car market penetration moment):

I've just had an argument with another, they got confused about dates and might have been telling other customers porkies.I've just been able to cast votes on my TSLA shareholding through A J Bell (UK)..still waiting to hear from Hargreaves Lansdown.....
Screwed up the URL... here it is: Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' RoundtableI already explained this to you
I'll add disingenuous forgetfulness to your list of wonderful traits.
Crap, my bank Nordea is on the senders list there - no wonder they do not allow me to vote .At SEC insistence, Tesla today distributed institutional opinions that are contrary to some Tesla BoD recommendations.
Giving some consideration to opinions contrary to one's initial reactions can be beneficial no matter what the subject.
