  1. In 5 months all I got was positive attention, especially from young kids, they all know what a Cyber truck is. I took two trips from Peoria, AZ to Fort Collins, CO 820 miles each way with absolutely no problems, except I hit a deer in a snow storm who ran off ($45 worth of damage). I can't see any problems with mileage. That was before I got the front motor replaced (had a harmonic noise), now it has more range. I did the same trip in my model Y.

  2. I liked your absolutely correct comment about Magnesium.😉

  3. Does anyone know that Tesla has software that will help prevent accidental acceleration when someone floors the accelerator? They say it has saved over 1 hundred accidental acceleration incidents in just weeks after it was deployed. As an 80 year old man, I know my Tesla's and their limitations as well as the laws and take full responsibility for my actions. I don't blame the car. I also don't trust others without checking their work as far as electrical installations go.

  4. Since we waited for 60 years to fire the excess government workers I am celebrating also. Just admit that things had got out of hand and Musk and Trump are doing something about it instead of just talking. Elon has said that the laid off workers are expected to find more productive work in this economy. (Shortly to be disrupted again when the robots take over). It might give them a leg up.

  5. If Berlin does get bigger, Texans will just go over and add whatever it takes to make Giga Texas bigger, so it will never happen.
    6
  6. Elon has his own agenda, and I agree with it. Comedy is our most powerful force to affect change on the society and it needs some change. A little christian charity wouldn't hurt either.

  7. No mention of the police not getting in the way of the Tesla to bring it to a safe stop.

  8. Don't forget the fuel that is burned is not at maximum efficiency, converting electric usage to fuel usage shows just how much energy is used for trucks, (which you did). We should get an increase in efficiency of 20%. That would mean saving 20% of the pollution or more and less greenhouse effects. (Very rough numbers). With solar the savings is very large.

  9. Google isn't messed up, just several centuries in the past, these are real things. Jiggs dinner, is a traditional meal commonly prepared and eaten on Sundays in Newfoundland. Corned beef and cabbage was the favorite meal of Jiggs, the central character in the popular, long-running comic strip Bringing Up Father by George McManus and Zeke Zekley. The Newfoundland tradition of mummering or jannying is often associated with the mummer’s parade, home visitation, music and the occasional drink! Once outlawed or you needed a license.

  10. Covering the roof with solar panels will reduce the load significantly. The only way to really figure it out is to do it. I would guess more than 20% of their total kWh use, but you only generate in the daytime. Don't get me wrong, an engineer can calculate, but he will only be close, there are too many variables.

  11. Electric motors have been in use (using batteries) for 195 years, later came the AC induction motor.
    5
  12. No exceptions are needed when people behave rationally. That is pretty much what I would do. Many HOA's don't know what they are doing or do things that are not in the best interest's of their tenants. Just because you have one shining example does not mean many are not. I refuse to live with an HOA.

  13. Don't be fooled by that Tesla bot not being powered up, they use them for night watchmen.😁

  14. It takes guts.

  15. Thank you for making it possible for me to get mine sooner, since I am 80 years old I don't have that much time to wait.
    4
  16. I just dismissed that video as junk, thanks for the breakdown though.
    4
  17. Yes they do , it's called starvation, much preferable to having to work for little money.
    4
  18. Patience, grasshopper.
    4
  19. Facts aren't any fun.
    4
  20. You are getting your different ideas mixed up. What Elon is talking about is the problem of making the launches for Starlink economically. The projects have to pay for themselves and there is a lot invested.
    3
  21. Sounds like you mother.😁
    3
  22.  @The_Tauri  There was no "promise". In fact it would be foolish to do so.
    3
  23.  @AudiTTQuattro2003  Buy a Tesla, you will be glad you did.
    3
  24. Follow the money.
    3
  25. That is not correct, its the driver that makes the difference, Outside of Europe, everyone drives like Americans, and they don't know how to do that.
    3
  26. Old Mexican saying. "Go to court, win a chicken but lose a cow".
    3
  27. You forget, there are 50 states if you don't count Canada.
    3
  28. In this case, you are correct, better does mean safer in this context, however.
    3
  29. Just looking at Texas Secretary of State Jane Nelson sign the documents says it all.
    3
  30. You need to take a closer look at both robots, there is a huge difference, Boston Dynamics will eventually use TeslaBots along with everyone else.
    3
  31. There you go, being rational again.
    3
  32. Somebody had to make the decision, at least it was the right one.
    3
  33. One thing, Tesla can't sell 3 times as many cars yet because they can't make that much yet, but they will regardless of these factors and variables; the whole argument falls on its face.
    3
  34. Why waste your money?
    3
  35. To be more precise, the "war" was between D.C. and A.C. Edison built the electric system on D.C. and saw A.C. as a competitor. (Which it was).
    3
  36. These are not new or original ideas, people have tried to get them used before. Until someone like Tesla does it , no one will take a chance.
    3
  37. I say my Cyber truck is better in every way to my Chevy Silverado 1500 that I had for 24 years. I did have a 1941-3 Chevy pickup for several years as well.
    3
  38. Concrete is made on site but still has to be hauled to the site by train dry, remember this is Europe.
    3
  39. I am definitely "middle class" although I did get my BS degree in Applied Computing from ASU in 2011. Retired 23 years now. Waiting for Cyber Truck, have a model Y LR w/FSD.

  41. I assumed Giga Texas would be biggest, its always is bigger in Texas.
    3
  42. The market has been created by all the dead people, they are screaming in their graves.
    3
  43. I believe you don't know why Elon did what he did. Did you read his mind?
    3
  44. The job is tough, to tough for some.
    3
  45.  @CL-gq3no  This is not true, take it from a former grid operator. Local is the way to go.(Because of losses and reliability).
    3
  46. It would be more expensive to build multi-story, employees need the exercise.
    3
  47. They still contribute to a cleaner environment even if you use coal to generate electricity because they are much more efficient. Around 20 to 30 percent overall.
    3
  48. That's what you think now, just wait and see how much you change your mind 3 years from now.
    3
  49. You increase your productivity by using Tesla bots.

  50. The best advertising is free advertising. No advertising is death.😁😁

  51. I am the only engineer on the Piscatakwa HO model railway.😁

  52. Hopefully, we will make all the money?
    2
  53. If you are buying a car for your grandmother, you should buy a Tesla, unless you want to collect your inheritance sooner.
    2
  54.  @FutureAzA  Not so ridiculous, lets try it.
    2
  55. The best advertising is free advertising.

  56. That's how Toyota made money, now they won't.
    2
  57. Now you know that anyone that builds excessively will fail, sell your BYD stock!
    2
  58. The little guy does occasionally still count.
    2
  59. I already teach my grandsons to minimize risk by reducing left turns, easy to do. I learned that back in 1962.
    2
  60. They sell gold that doesn't exist as well.
    2
  61. Fantasy, I don't want to burst your bubble. I have 13.2.8.
    2
  62.  @notmii8855  That never happened, where are you? I have FSD, ask the man that owns one.
    2
  63. You are 100% wrong about that, major roads are built to carry 80 ton tanks on a transporter. Roughly 135 tons. That's why it takes 10 to 20 years for 40 ton trucks to tear up a major road (Like the N.J. Turnpike). There are special road use vehicles that weigh that much, usually restricted to 35 MPH. There is a max weight per axle limit.
    2
  64.  @texan-american200  Generally, sun beats machinery, except in the winter, such as it is. All electricity is turned to heat, thank-you God for LED's.
    2
  65. How can you let your emotions rule your finances? How about some facts first.
    2
  66. Yes, and why would you want to?
    2
  67. You need an imagination.
    2
  68. Well, you have a low opinion of Elon. Consider the position for a minute, do you want the job? Elon works on facts , not emotions, we all have emotions that influence our thinking, but could you afford to let an annoyance lose you millions of dollars? How do you control one of the worlds largest companies?
    2
  69. I once told a "colored" joke to a prejudiced southerner (my boss); he didn't get it.
    2
  70. Close enough for government work!
    2
  71. There is no truth in you repeating what the paid trolls say.
    2
  72. You really need to take an engineering degree. How can a little tiny 48 volt battery have anything to do with it? Houses have to be retro-fitted with equipment to do anything at all. I put 4 kw solar on (and 48 Amp. charging by myself).
    2
  73. Wouldn't you really rather have a Tesla...with the rebate? (Instead of another car without the rebate?).
    2
  74.  @FutureAzA  What "facts"?
    2
  75. I have gotten the epoxy off by simply heating it. Everything simply falls apart.
    2
  76. You mean the naysayers don't know this? Really?
    2
  77. You need to check the cost of old worn out trailers that are still serviceable as long as you don't take them out on the road.
    2
  78. There is less solar power on Mars than on Earth, lets use it here, I am.
    2
  79. When I saw that Lucid Motors was building a plant in Casa Grande, Arizona, I knew they would go bankrupt.
    2
  80.  @alancane1482  I"m a perfectly safe driver.😁
    2
  81. I am sorry to hear you are so short sighted and uninformed, please study up on events.🙄
    2
  82. I can't understand the audio.
    2
  83. True fact, people hate change.
    2
  84. It is the nature of being human. (Follow the pack).
    2
  85. I can't see why they would buy shares in any of Elon's companies since they are a wholly-owned subsidiary of SpaceX.
    2
  86. Show me.
    2
  87. And he is still alive and kicking.
    2
  88.  @johnfruh  To prepare the way.
    2
  89. You can't sue the CCP.
    2
  90. I'll go along with, "They have no idea".
    2
  91. That's like saying that autopilot in a plane is not full autopilot, if that were true, the plane would crash. Ignorance will eventually be replaced.
    2
  92. Their just making castings to give you something to look at.
    2
  93. I see you failed to read Tesla's company statement on what their purpose is.
    2
  94. There are different uses for different computers.
    2
  95.  @whowhy9023  That's because they are a specialist firm.
    2
  96.  @FutureAzA  You got more than me.
    2
  97. This is a slave gulag, not a factory. They lock the doors at night.
    2
  98. Opponents and conflict sell, don't you know basic advertising? Here is a short course; There is no good or bad publicity, there is only publicity. The best publicity is free publicity. No publicity is death.😊 Check with P.T. Barnhum, the second greatest advertiser after Elon Musk. Ron Popeil hangs in there as well. Others don't even hold a candle to their brilliance and they know it.
    2
  99.  @FutureAzA  Really some people are beyond...
    2
  100. Seems to me the same thing happened to Thomas Edison, people forget. Just wait.
    2
  101. You must first get all planes and ships to do the same and then come back here and complain. (That an't goin ta happn).
    2
  102. Training is the issue, wait a while and these problems will go away.
    2
  103.  @adairmartin  What's the idea of actually learning how to use it? That takes all the fun out of complaining.😉😉
    2
  104.  @tonysquires2068  The owners lose.
    2
  105.  @gustavgyll3291  It does not matter if it was to large since it was already earned. Your pay is to large as well, ask for a cut in pay. (If you have a job).
    2
  106. Getting the railroads to do anything is a real pain in the ass.
    2
  107. Don't start any rumors.
    2
  108. No, that's Baker Electric.(get it?)
    2
  109. In the desert, 1467 KWH avg., 893 KWH seems avg. for country.
    2
  110. It only took one year in England.
    2
  111. Then it would not have happened.
    2
  112. Convoluted, but you have a point.
    2
  113. That would do it for anybody.
    2
  114. Just follow the money.
    2
  115.  @guyg2005  I get a thumbs up when driving my Cyber truck especially among the younger generation.
    2
  116.  @noname-ll2vk  I beg to disagree with you, the Citroën 2CV is and always will be the ugliest vehicle ever built.
    2
  117. Not well.
    2
  118. Don't bet against Elon is still good advice.😁
    2
  119. You are very naive and short-sighted if you think there is no way to prevent that.
    2
  120. Same as our roof on our church.
    2
  121. I always say, "What is good for Tesla is good for the country". I wonder where I heard that before? Oh, yeah, it was General Motors.😁😁
    2
  122. The Muslims cut off a hand.
    2
  123.  @ordinaryhuman5645  No proof was necessary, no one is irreplaceable.
    2
  124. That's not engineering if you depend on luck, that's stupid.
    2
  125.  @erikhendrickson59  There is no comparison, ask the man that owns one.
    2
  126. He was far to nice to them.
    2
  127.  @davidl.beckwith4836  They have figured out a way to avoid physics!
    2
  128. The best advertisement is free advertisement.
    2
  129.  @ridewithme1098  This is mostly because of social media, it will go away when people get tired of it, give it a couple of weeks.
    2
  130. Nobody actually crashed.
    2
  131. At Starbucks the minimum coffee price last I checked, was $1.57. Its probably gone up since then, just like the price of a Tesla. (I want my Cyber Truck!) What! a two year wait?
    2
  132. This is the opposite of correct advertising, we don't want people to get on TV by stealing. Ray Stevens had the right idea, ridicule. It killed the fad of streaking in one playing of the record.
    2
  133. So start now.
    2
  134. Are you a high-wire act?😁 I have a model Y and am waiting on a Cyber Truck.
    2
  135. The main benefit is it costs less.
    2
  136. My red light turns are pretty good, its getting better. I have 13.2.8 in the Cyber truck and 12.6.4 in my HW3 model Y LR Tesla.
    2
  137. You mean all thinking people?
    2
  138. The Tesla short ETA went out of business.
    2
  139. The pilot of an airplane is still responsible for the plane and the captain of a ship is also, why would the driver of a car not be responsible? Its all the same. They are on FSD until they need to be piloted into port or landing, even then some systems are able to land the plane. If you don't like that, don't fly.
    2
  140. You can pretty much guess this was forced by the people involved to get clicks. Not much going on here, the FSD will correct itself.
    2
  141. By this time, Tesla superchargers should be approaching 20,000, I guess that's more than 10,000.
    2
  142. Have you examined the door locks and hinges?
    2
  143. You should explain your last comment better, it is hard to understand unless you know a lot about the subject. Its a 109 degrees here in Peoria, I don't have to say Fahrenheit or that it is not. Peoria, Colorado Peoria, Illinois Peoria, Franklin County, Indiana Peoria, Miami County, Indiana Peoria, Iowa Peoria, Kansas Peoria, Missouri Peoria, Ohio or Peoria, Oklahoma ..
    2
  144.  @FutureAzA  Now that was a no-brainer!
    2
  145. Another "tragedy of the commons"?
    2
  146.  @FutureAzA  What is the risk? Stay off private property.
    2
  147. Strangely enough, oil comes from sunshine and so does coal.
    2
  148. Hey, it's an argument.
    1
  149.  @FutureAzA  The whole objective is to make money while changing over to a self sustaining economy. Remember, Tesla has no control of outside companies or governments, which is a trap that Elon does not want to fall into, how many toes will get stomped on?
    1
  150. Unless there is some major change in availability or cost, it goes like this; Steel is made in a rolling mill at Sinton, TX plus other suppliers. Tires will be bought from suppliers. Chips are a continuing problem, parts designed by Tesla, mostly China or Korea fabs, maybe AZ or Texas?
    1
  151. My eardrum was blown out by jet engine noise, but it was way louder than 120 db. 120 db will make most people leave the premises. Could cause permanent ear damage if you are dumb enough to stay around. In a closed room it will cause permanent ear damage in seconds.

  152.  @timboatfield  Cement?
    1
  153. If you don't make enough money to pay for the use, don't do it.
    1
  154. Actually, Tesla has so much money they don't know what to do with it, what's why the interest. They have put all the money that is reasonable and proper into expansion.
    1
  155. One thing you said might be wrong. There is no such thing as bad pr, only no pr.
    1
  156.  @FutureAzA  Lets see... I invested $16,000 at $2.70 a day savings that means it will take 16years to pay it off. But that does not take into consideration the lost opportunity cost. $9,675 earned @ 3% interest.
    1
  157.  @TheSpartan3669  True, but it helps to know what you are talking about.
    1
  158.  @davidbeppler3032  I can and have done it better... what are you talking about?😁😁
    1
  159. Less waste.
    1
  160. That is no explanation, why did he do what he did? Elon does not do, without a reason. Of course anybody can make a mistake.
    1
  161. Lucid probably just moves their cars around like Ford does with its trucks in Peoria, AZ at the defunct Carvana dealer.
    1
  162. Re program, no problem.
    1
  163. Just read the opposite into it.
    1
  164. That's been worked on for the last 3 to 4 thousand years, I would have thought you would know that. As a manager of a state agency, I kept a careful eye on the money, surprising as it might be, the most likely people to misuse it were (and still are) the "higher ups".
    1
  165. People fail to understand that the rest of the world does not think large like the U.S. does, most factories are small by our standards, tiny even. The biggest modern factory built in Europe is built by an American company.
    1
  166. Yes. It was the whole thing. (Or maybe not).
    1
  167. Occam's Razor says humans fail 92% of the time. Well, not exactly, but they do.
    1
  168. Your guess is very likely to be correct.
    1
  169. They do that at stores... real effective.
    1
  170. Yes, they are littered all over the place.😁
    1
  171. Tesla needs to stick to what Tesla does better than anyone else.
    1
  172.  @khuo0219  That's what the video was for.
    1
  173. My price target has been $380. for a while now.
    1
  174. Actually, the batteries the thing. You don't need a Tesla bot to do most things.
    1
  175.  @joelwaugh987  Or ever will own, I'm 81.
    1
  176. You tube is removing comments critical of big three automotive companies, trying to control the narrative.
    1
  177. You mean none can, that's Elon's advantage. He has two supercomputers. (Maybe three).
    1
  178.  @nguyep4  Its all about how do I steal talent from Elon Musk?
    1
  179.  @FutureAzA  x2
    1
  180. Money does not even enter into it unless you are a lawyer trying to make a killing. Its about power and who will be in control, envious money grubbing persons want to set Tesla up to take it over and usurp the companies stated purpose so they can rape the company and the shareholders. Which is exactly what they will do if Elon loses control.
    1
  181. The chip and construction method itself is vertically integrated.
    1
  182. This idea of brand damage is not a real thing, it is just made up, wait for the numbers over the long term. People are sometimes 20 years behind the times.
    1
  183. Or make us all rich.
    1
  184. That's because they don't know what they are talking about.
    1
  185.  @FutureAzA  I'm not the person referenced, but I was in a union and did not see any material benefit at the time, but there once was. Same with the big three.
    1
  186. So you are not used to a little hype?😁
    1
  187. Now there's the rub...
    1
  188.  @alanhall6909  I don't think you got all this correct, but from experience, you are mostly correct.
    1
  189. But wait!... There's more!
    1
  190. I keep saying, Tesla is using the only method available; brute force, that needs more and more until you succeed.
    1
  191. Don't forget the German culture is a fit as well.
    1
  192. Why not just come right out and say it; There is no such thing as bad publicity, there is only publicity. No publicity is death. If you ignore it it will go away. The best publicity is free publicity. Controversy leads to interest (or holds interest). Knowing these things makes it all very clear and explains the reason why no one in his right mind would spend money on protests, you are giving away free publicity, any thing negative is soon forgotten. You said so yourselves.
    1
  193. Everything has its own implications.
    1
  194. Electrics instead of hydraulics, no pneumatics?
    1
  195. It probably means they are going to run parallel systems, another production line. I did that when I was programming.
    1
  196. Why do you think Elon just invested in a wireless charging company?
    1
  197.  @Dularr  Well, there's your uncertainty.
    1
  198. This idea is a conglomeration of many pieces of information which are only slightly related, in other words, completely wrong. There is plenty of history on the internet.
    1
  199.  @AudiTTQuattro2003  Plenty of videos show they are very wrong, just like drivers of other cars, why would they be special? After all we are all human. True, Tesla drivers like me are smarter than most. (Actually more aware of the facts).

  200. Andrew is short.
    1
  201. FUD.

  202. You all are getting better, some people are having trouble filling the time.

  203. Anyone can go global, for instance a South African that came to the U.S. through Canada.

  204. I am an 'Automotive Analyst' because I have been doing it for 70 years and have a long view of things.

  205.  @morrisg  I haven't seen any steep idle fees.
    1
  206. Just like on earth but it will take a bigger one here.
    1
  207. It is because these people are more high tech than provincial Americans.
    1
  208. So much for their 90 day wait time.
    1
  209.  @kkarllwt  Because the built them in areas with more wind?

  210. Not what I heard about the abilities of the software engineers, they are not good.

  218. My mother owned a BMW car, it cost around $1,595. It weighed 1,500 lbs and had a 750 cc engine with 2 cylinders horizontally opposed, with 55 ft-lbs of torque. We used Good Year tires with 170 tread compound. It would scream up the hill in a hill-climb. It halved the time of the Corvettes, embarrassing the hell out of them. Anyone want to guess how?... It was raining.

  226. Why worry about stupid? Less parts means less to go wrong. Electrical, Electronics is and always was more reliable than mechanical devices. If you don't like physics, go take a hike. My 2008 Nissan Altima Hybrid was more reliable than previous ones, 15 years in the Arizona heat killed it. The Tesla model Y (wifes car) and my Cyber truck are better built and more reliable than anything made by another manufacturer to date. Plenty can be said about Tesla's customer service, but little can be said about their engineering and build quality. I expect my vehicles to last the rest of my life.

  230.  @737smartin  I hold Tesla in high regard, so they have a sterling reputation. Cybertruck will never backfire. I find no difference in Making contracts and taking $$s for prototypes in comparison to mass produced automotive practices.

  254. North Vietnam generals stated that they lost the war to the Americans on the battlefield and won it in public opinion in the U.S. I believe them, I was there. Vietnam is now an ally, just as Japan and Germany is. What is really happening is the companies in China are all, and I mean all, moving as fast as they can out of China because the CCP is squeezing them harder and harder so the profit they once made is going away. Even the Chinese companies are leaving. There is a massive movement of millions of Chinese out of China to other countries for jobs. The rest are being forced back to the farms they came from in the first place. China is much reduced as the factory for the world because they killed the goose that laid the golden eggs by getting to greedy. I guess they should have read Marx.

  308. When you engineer a product for a specific job, it will not work as well at other things. The earnings will go down as more batteries come on line, those imaginary profits will disappear. You have just done a stupid thing. Ruined your car for no benefit. No one will guarantee the battery for such use.

  327. The oil and ICE car companies also have their paid supporters and they have enough money to "short" Tesla stock in order to make it go down, but they will run out of money or get tired of beating against a brick wall or get caught. Just wait. Follow the money.

    1
  335.  @russabrams3982  I have yet to find a gas station that lets you fill up in less than 10 to 15 min, they want you there so they can sell you stuff. I just went on a long trip, not as long as some, 1850 miles, in my Tesla model Y long range and it was better than the same trip in my ICE car with less hassle and more fun for both my wife and I.
    1
  336. Most car companies are just lying, there is no chip shortage, just no sales, everybody knows this already. The same is true in China. There are 100's of thousands of cars not sold. You are likely to see the same person walking by that field all day long, paid to tell people what you heard.

  337.  @loujr9869  You will live (maybe) to regret your thinking, fortunately you have no money, so have no skin in the game, like I do. You mention the Fuhrer, do you know the story of Volkswagen and the scheme to defraud the German people of their hard-earned money to raise funds for WWII?

  348.  @AudiTTQuattro2003  Especially when we have a recording of what they did wrong, or at least Tesla does. That's all good advertising.
    1
  349. Did tarring and feathering ever kill anyone?
    1
  350. That's because they are, Tesla did not say they invented all the ideas to make a car, just a better implementation. They did not invent the giga-casting, just used an idea that was sitting there waiting for someone bold enough to change the way things are done. What they invented along with others willing to help, was a machine that could actually work and then improved it. There are many good ideas never used because no one wants to take a chance on it. That's why Elon is a genius, he sees things that others don't see.

  351. Another word to add to my dictionary!

  352. A common misunderstanding is that technology rapidly replaces whatever came before it when it is perceived as 10 times better. But it still replaces the old way eventually. It is the perception of improvement, not the improvement. Hence all the hype.

  393. Or, you could call it free advertising, which is the best advertising.

  394.  @gustavgyll3291  Those that have great powers get great responsibility. It was ridiculous to take on the task and the successful results will be rewarded. Elon is in uncharted territory, so it seems ridiculous, that's why I am with him and he deserves all he can get. No one has ever created a company, let alone several, that are going to be worth 10 trillion dollars.
    1
  395.  @singed8853  Since it has already happened in reverse of what you say, just exactly who is getting fleeced here? Have you ever heard the story of the Pied Piper? Rather it is to say Elon already earned his stock options. We can judge the value now, after the fact, you seem to think that it is his future pay, no, he already earned it and the judge can't take it away after the fact. Now we have to figure out what his future pay is worth, would you be willing to give Elon 44 billion cash and have him turn it into 4 trillion? Or are you not willing to take the risk? Elon did take the risk and he came thru. Don't bet against Elon.

  396. In the world? No, but in the U.S. you have a choice, Model S, 3, X, Y (my choice) or wait for Cyber Truck (not my choice to wait but I can't find a way to skip the line). If you buy anything else you will regret it.

  409.  @jonevansauthor  Everyone seems to think these countries are honest, they are not. Building in the UK or Australia would give you a more honest country to deal with.

  410. I disagree. I have been teaching 18 and 19 year olds to drive, I'm going to rent a Tesla and see what they can learn, I have been using the FSD characteristics to teach them.

  411. You are getting a little away from safety, aren't you?

  412. Probably because he is a genius? Gasoline is down, go check.

  413. A good lesson in how stupid people are, no wonder we have problems communicating. Would a Rose, by any other name smell as sweet?

  414. The current price for a model Y is just what I payed for mine on 2/08/2023, white is my preferred color.

  415. I'm 80 and I never thought ICE cars were the answer since I was 7 and learned to read, I was a fan of Edison and played with my twin brother on the side of the hill where the "Eternal Light" is when I was 3. Both Edison and his wife drove Baker Electrics. We are finally getting to finish Edison's project. Of course I drive a Tesla model Y LR.

  416. Since we are talking about a quirky company and Elon Musk, that's a fit.

  417. Where in the world do these ideas come from? Try first principles, simplicity.

  418. All those drones in N. J. could use up those "surplus" batteries from China.

  419. Optimus could carry a stun gun.

  420.  @FutureAzA  This is true.
    1
  421.  @VJ-ft2xj  Since the car already is better at driving than a person, that does not make much sense. You might want to stop flying or even using a train.
    1
  422.  @FutureAzA  On the face of it it is dilutive, you have less control. I would just award him regular shares, he earns every penny and more, sort of like the goose that laid the golden eggs.

  423. Depends of you have your Depends on.

  424. Highline transmissions says that an automatic transmission has 1,293,425 moving parts, but they must be on some kind of weed. I think a car has more than 30,000 parts though. What is a part?

  425. There people are the descendants of the Luddites.

  426. So I will be 80 years old before I get my Cyber Truck, I have a sense of urgency.

  427. But "they" told Fulton the same thing!

  428. Not if they are raised by kind parents.

  429. The one thing that is killing India and many other countries is corruption, funny people don't know that, the Indians sure do. China is dying, Russia is dying, South Africa is dying, Iran is dying, Afghanistan is dying and others. The leaders in these corrupt countries take all the money and leave the people nothing. This is not a mystery. That is what is wrong with most of Africa and why they can't get ahead no matter how much money you put in.

  430.  @FutureAzA  Get a bigger hammer.

  431.  @ChargedMotion  Don't bet against Elon.

  432. Society can't even get used to the inventions we already have, what makes you think they will get used to Tesla Bot without disruption?

  433. I see you got it; free is the best advertising.
    1
  434. I have an extremely low regard for human drivers because they crash so often.
    1
  435. After the free advertising in Nevada, there's no telling how many will sell, 40,000?

  436. Eventually a solid car manufacturing behemoth.😁

  437.  @timboatfield  This looks like what Honeywell and IBM looked like back when they made computers, essentially an empty shell with enormous profit coming out the end.
    1
  438.  @FutureAzA  I wonder what people think conducts the electricity in wireless charging? Copper, methinks.
    1
  439. That's why nobody is buying them.
    1
  440. Because people like to make money the easy way, (to them) by suing.

  441. I have standard road tires on my Cybertruck and drove through a snow storm in CO with FSD on 12 not 13.2.1 which I now have. At 50 mph I hit a deer, the truck steered probably faster than I did away from the deer, the bottom air deflector on the left side was broken off and the deer ran off into the woods. No other damage was done.

  442. A measure of value is how much money it makes. (But it is only one, even if the most used).

  443.  @rw17778  Pennies or not, that's what killed Detroit.

  444. Judging by past performance, The Big Three will not make it even with government funds. The management is stuck in their old ways of thinking. Sad to see, my father worked for GM.
    1
  445. Why would you buy a car without checking the safety ratings?
    1
  446. There is no evidence to back that up, it is pure speculation.
    1
  447.  @FutureAzA  And there are other suppliers.
    1
  448. The problem is spacing so heating and expansion does not cause the motor parts to touch.
    1
  449. For how long, enough for one car?

  450.  @blakestone1432  I would really like to see where you get your facts from.
    1
  451.  @rw17778  Well having been in a union that was owned by the company, I wonder where you get your information, facts only please.
    1
  452. So you read the memo.
    1
  453. Are you from Missouri?

  454.  @edwardhackett-jones8126  Come on! You have to think to figure this out.

  455. I'm not waiting for my Cybertruck, I have it. Nice. My wife's model Y LR is nice also.

  456. Do it.

  457. There are some nasty characters out there.

  458. Nothing is slow-rolled at Tesla or Space-X.

  459. Come on Guys, being bigger in Texas is just a joke, it does not matter.

  461. Remember, the only thing is publicity, good or bad is the same. No publicity is death. The best publicity is free publicity.
    1
  462.  @FutureAzA  That's what safety belts are for.
    1
  463. I have 12.3.3 and am waiting for 12.3.4, I don't care what they say. Tesla's are the best cars and trucks ever built. That's why they are the worlds best selling car's and soon trucks.
    1
  464. Sad that those that have eyes cannot see.
    1
  465. So what's new? If it bleeds, it leads.
    1
  466. You don't need a blanket to put out the fire from a little starter battery, you need someone that actually knows enough not to put it inside the house and use a charger that was not meant for the job or you could do what I do and use the correct charger.
    1
  467. They don't even have the most EV sales unless you include Hybrids.
    1
  468. Yep.
    1
  469. These are different things.
    1
  470. That is not what is happening. The Cybertruck stands alone. Tesla is constantly learning.
    1
  471. And you can also thank Tesla for keeping the chip sourcing working during the pandemic.
    1
  472. True, even Elon can't predict the future, he can only shape the future.
    1
  473. Tesla will put the vehicles separately when they reach significance, less than 1% is not significant..
    1
  474. Elon said starting at $20,000 maybe.
    1
  475. General Motors, "Body by Fisher".

  476. Lucid stock went up $0.55 today so you must be wrong.😁😁😁

  477. How many fingers do you have on both hands? That should give you an idea of how much you can do at the same time. (Six for me, but I have all my fingers).
    1
  478. Tesla's operating margin is currently 14.35 percent, not 7.6 percent.
    1
  479. Estimates are done on bulk, they are just estimates.
    1
  480. You are mostly correct, Elon is most certainly not the smartest man (or woman) on the planet. Don't play that game, there is always a faster draw in the West. He is very smart and persistent which counts as much or more. It is a team thing, as all great achievements are. I agree most commenters couldn't design or build a Yo-Yo. Think about the differences between Elon and for instance, Putin (Putler). One is advancing Humanity and the other is destroying Russia single-handedly, not Ukraine, Russia.

  481. Time to harden.

  482.  @kob8634  You get allocades from me for knowing this, the restaurants always reduce their food quality and service after the first year, to increase profits. That is their downfall, everyone leaves and goes to the next big thing (or restaurant).
    1
  483. In fact at the end of every day, right now. Electric prices have gone down historically since the start of the electric age and will continue to do so.

  484. Actually, chocolate milk comes from brown cows, I know, I used to be a farmer. Shmoos.

  485.  @kstaxman2  All the houses around me have the AC under the roof.

  486. This is the best way to show who is in control, you can't let a rogue employee destroy the company. I think there is more to it, being a former manager of a state agency I saw things that others would not know about, the way people take advantage of their position to feather their own nest, for example. One bad apple can spoil the barrel.

  487. I am contemplating... none of this is fact, it is all opinion. I look back to the change from horse to automobile.
    1
  488. Although you can criticize FSD, you do not mention what version; they are all different in their response. I am using hardware 3, Ver. 11.4.7.3 . My experience is very different than yours. It still makes mistakes, but I use it.
    1
  489.  @cathyk9197  As a matter of fact, according to this analysis, we might as well all pack up and go home.
    1
  490. Why do you think they have so many crashes in Texas? Let me think...
    1
  491.  @FutureAzA  Yes, there is a man in Africa that shrinks heads, he can help you.

  492. That sounds just like the bureaucrats', don't let in the one that works!😁
    1
  493. Some Teslas already have the wiring connection for wireless charging.
    1
  494. Tesla is lowering prices in a proper way, because the cars are costing less to make. They don't sell at a loss. It is not because people can't afford them, it is just economics 101.
    1
  495.  @aaronbounds1336  Ever hear of wheel slip? Of course you are correct.
    1
  496.  @tireddad6541  More than130 years? 140?
    1
  497.  @lucaslimer  Made or assembled?
    1
  498. Nothing is 100% safe, but it is safe. How is the entire electric grid "shielded"? It is not. How is it "safe" to run a house with 3 air conditioners? They use a lot more power than my Tesla model Y. There is only the usual process as for all electrical appliances.
    1
  499.  @dennispolack4370  As fast as you can teach them.

  500. I think you are wrong, all the compute power can be used for all projects all the time.😁😁
    1
  501. Well, actually no one does require them.

  502. Its the cost that makes it impossible.

  503. Do your own then.
    1
  504. After looking at the hardware, I disagree, the bot is special.
    1
  505. I will never work for a dishonest company and I never have. Service is the name of the game. Tesla is starting to focus more on that.
    1
  506. Where did you get that idea? European standards copied American standards, as far as the laws are concerned.😁

  507. It doesn't take a lawyer to figure this out.

  508. Correct, apply that across the board.

  509. Perhaps you never read any stories such as "Frankenstein", by Mary Shelley? How about a simpler story, "2001, a Space Odyssey"?
    1
  510.  @FutureAzA  Its OK, but I just don't have the time.

  511. The very point, the steering wheel, (if you want to call it that), and the wheels are "seperate".
    1
  512. If you are an electric truck, maximum weight 82,000, so 2 tons over would be 84,000 but why get confused? The truck will weight 82,000 max.
    1
  513. I would say the probability is 100% you will set it on fire. I have heard of people burning down their cars doing this as well.
