    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I'm betting all the US Senators who are calling for limits on FSD and investigations into Autopilot will switch over to prohibiting Tesla's release of FSD in China in the near future due to "national security" reasons.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Saw the Cybertruck in person today during my daily walk. Actually the first time I've seen one in Fremont.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Many others have already eloquently rebutted your post but I’d like to call out this point. Unless you’re part of the development team, you really have no idea if 200 developers are not enough for FSD development. It’s a common mistake of people who have not done software development to think...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I’m not making any claims or estimates about Tesla’s production rate in 2024. I was responding to those members who seem to feel that new factories are required to hit the targets. If you don’t feel doubling capacity in an existing factory is realistic, then I don’t see how building a new...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Not sure why folks think new factories are required for growth in 2024. Both Berlin and Austin have the capacity to grow far more than their current run rates.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    My personal theory is that it’ll be called Model A. Then Tesla will have S3XY CARS: C - Cybertruck A - Model 2 R - Roadster S - Semi

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Lol, this reminds me of all the analyst reports that used to say Apple was going to end up last in smartphone market share, after Android and Windows Mobile(?!?). One of the reasons I invested in Tesla: )

    This is pretty much what the forum has degenerated into for me: half of the posters responding to my ignored list 😉

    I’d be leery about putting any faith in what Scoble has to say about anything. He was one of the biggest Glassholes:

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I can't find his name when doing a member search. I don't post much but this is disheartening if true. I liked jbcarioca's insights and perspectives, it's definitely a loss for the forum if he's gone. Anyone know what happened?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Dave strikes me as someone who’s not worked in product development and believes good “process” is the key to developing excellent products. Good process can make a great team better but it will make never make a bad team good. In other words, you‘re not getting Tesla or Apple results without a...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    This has also been my experience with TD Ameritrade, as well as several financial advisors I’ve interviewed over the past few years. I had some Apple stock that did well and as a result, became a large portion of my portfolio. Everyone I spoke to said I needed to diversify and that Apple wasn’t...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I just read the article, feels like a typical WSJ hit piece on both Tesla and China. The reality seems like the relationship is a win\win for both parties but the WSJ can’t bring itself to say that.

    Tesla BEV Competition Developments

    Saw a Rivian in the flesh today on my daily walk. Since I live close to the Tesla factory in Fremont, I wonder if Tesla is doing competitive analysis. If it weren’t for the Rivian branding on the side, it would look like any other truck on the road.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    My wife and I were driving to the supermarket today when we noticed a bunch of Teslas in a nearby lot. I asked her to drive around so I could get a better glimpse. It seemed to be all Model S types with a lot of dust covering them. Doesn't seem like this lot will be delivered tomorrow; do you...

    When to retire?

    I'm on COBRA this year as well, but I plan to use ACA starting next January. I'm in California, so I can qualify for different state and federal subsidies based on my income level. The trick is to keep your income at whatever subsidy level you desire. I'm not sure if your state has subsidies but...

    Gordo is to Tesla what Rob Enderle was to Apple. One small sample and you’ll see the resemblance: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.networkworld.com/article/2224565/skewering-rob-enderle-s-conspiracy-theory-about-apple-stock.amp.html

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Apologies if this has already been covered before, but I was wondering if the amount of EV credits that Tesla has available to sell is based upon the number of cars that Tesla sells in a year. In other words, the more cars that Tesla sells, the more EV credits it has available for other...

    GME and AMC stock action (out of main)

    Yep, I'm doing the same. Moving from TD to Vanguard. This is bullshit and I don't even own GME.

    Taptes Model 3 USB Hub

    I ordered last Thursday, Jan. 16.

    Taptes Model 3 USB Hub

    I'd also add that I prefer the Taptes design with 3 USB-A ports and 1 USB-C port since I don't have any USB-C devices. I was tempted to order the Jeda hub but the two USB-C ports, coupled with the very high price, put me off. I ordered the Taptes hub as soon as I saw it because the price is...

    Set of original Michelin 18" tires with noise absorbing foam. No wheels or TPMS included. About 8,000 miles of use, mostly on highways. Still plenty of tread left and no problems with any of the tires. Prefer to sell as a set for local pickup in Bay Area but will ship if buyer is willing to pay...

    Home Charging Question on Using Electric Dryer Outlet 10-30A

    I have a similar situation to you and opted for the Dryer Buddy. It’s worked great and I never worry about charging anymore. Here’s a picture of my setup (the dryer outlet is down and to the right).
