  1. I know this generally does not play in the decision of what car a person would purchase, but on a purely moral level -- despite the copious media FUD to the contrary (which we all know is motivated purely because of pecuniary interest on the part of the media companies true agenda which is to sell ad space/time and cover the short positions of the holding companies that really own them {so grow up}) AS I was saying: on a purely moral level VW deserves to fail, and fail miserably, as does Mercedies, Porsche, GM, and probably others. Other than Tesla if there is a OEM that has operated in anything other than a truly criminal manner, at times, I am not aware of it -- perhaps some minor players that don't really move any metrics have, I don't know. Maybe you do. But all these companies would end up in hell if we were judging them from a Medieval perspective, or in jail if we used a criminal metric. And the poetic irony of it is, that they continually have various shills and interested parties spreading disinformation at light speed on a daily basis, accusing Tesla of doing what they have been found to have been doing all along. Too bad people don't consider the moral behavior or intentions of a company in their purchasing decision, because the major OEMs that would hold up to scrutiny are very few.

  2. Does that "gaining" metric really matter in a segment that is expanding? What would seem more relevant to me is how many VW ICE sales are Tesla's increasing sales deprecating? How many would-be VW ICE buyers are buying Teslas instead?

  3.  @machoopichoo2  You got that right. Just another "keep em in doubt" ala tobacco industry "research".

  4. And some of them are attempting to steal Tesla tech by any means available, even bribing vendors to sell them Tesla parts. China is defiantly a force to be reckoned with. Can Tesla -- preforming scrupulously by the rules out compete companies that will advance by any means possible? I am an optimist and believe it can. I think we will see the ultimate Elon jujitsu at play in this arena, which is way more impressive than the primitive physical martial arts. To me anyway.
