They didn’t crash and burn. They were an overvalued bubble SPAC that never should have been at $60. Anyone bemoaning these production issues can’t be serious given what Tesla’s early days looked like. And I’m a Tesla owner lol.
No one is going to escape the supply side constraint. They are way ahead of Tesla in terms of lifecycle. I do agree the stock got way out in front.As expected, another TSLA wannabe tanks:
EV start-up Lucid slashes 2022 vehicle production forecast, causing shares to plummet
The company cited supply chain constraints for slashing production expectations to between 12,000 and 14,000 vehicles, down from 20,000 units.www.cnbc.com
I really hope Tesla reconsiders the bi-directional home charging. I know they want to sell powerwalls but it’s a meaningful disadvantage plus the federal credit.
Except Tesla was in front but gave it up so they can sell powerwalls and solar. That’s what @BellyFullOfWhiteDogCrap told me anyway.

Why not release this new Everest vehicle in the US, or the Ranger Raptor?
Ford Everest, SUV Based on Ranger, Debuts Everywhere but the U.S.
This body-on-frame SUV pairs the Ranger's tough appearance with a more livable cabin, but it will remain forbidden fruit for the United States.www.yahoo.com
When Tesla did it, it's clear evidence of sound financial decision-making. When anybody else does it, it's clear evidence of Tesla's vast superiority.
I spoke with a few dealers and they said it would be years if ever. Seems to me that with gas prices rising the Ranger Raptor would be a hit.
Profitable, large scale production of an affordable, new technology is insanely difficult. Throw in supply shortages and shipping delays and it's close to impossible.
I will defer to you what with you being the board expert in doing that.
LOL. All hail Elon! All hail Elon. 🤣
Nope. I've been trying to explain how ridiculously difficult it's been for Tesla. You, on the other hand keep insisting that everyone else will magically catch up and survive the EV transition.
There’s nothing magical about it at all. It’s just business. And I never said everyone will survive. Even if EVs never existed, not all car companies survive forever. Duh.

That’s great news! I don’t know if dealers were BS’ing me or perhaps it wasn’t official yet. Either way, I bet it’s a huge hit. Hopefully the gas mileage is better than current F150 Raptor’s 15 mpg. That’s the main reason, along with price, I haven’t pulled the trigger."Ford has confirmed that the Ranger Raptor will indeed be sold in the U.S., following the reveal of the global version. Before the official news, we had seen spy photos of it testing as well as a camouflaged prototype of the next-generation Ranger. The Raptor variant will reach showrooms on our shores sometime next year."
2023 Ford Ranger Raptor: What We Know So Far
With bulging bodywork and off-road-ready hardware, the Ford Ranger Raptor downsizes the badass style and rip-roaring thrills of the larger F-150 Raptor.www.caranddriver.com
The president giving false valor to GM and Ford as the "leaders of the EV revolution". Telling Mary Barra, "You did it! You electrified the entire industry" The president and members of the administration forbidden to say the word "Tesla" publicly for over 2 years. If that isn't corruption, I don't know what is.
i wouldn't say having a CEO who's constantly under investigation by the SEC and a company who openly ignores regulations and has tried to thwart investigations by the NHTSA to be the most virtuous.
Sacrilege!
Of course - these agencies would never be influenced by politics or executive branch corruption. Really good point lol - what planet are you living on,
so market manipulation rules that have been in place for years shouldn't apply to elon? and safety rules that apply to every other automaker shouldn't apply to tesla? gtfoh.
