  1. Inconceivable!

    Musk's tweets are why my wife will not accept a Tesla as an upgrade for her Honda Civic. When you have a product to sell, cutting your market in half by taking sides in political fights is an unforced error. We are exactly the Tesla owners that the interviewer was asking about. The only...
  2. Rumors of Tesla wanting to replace Elon Musk [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS AND TWITTER TALK]

    Surely we can agree that going on Twitter and picking fights about values and politics with your core customer-bas is a really dumb idea?
  3. Rumors of Tesla wanting to replace Elon Musk [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS AND TWITTER TALK]

    Not pissing off your customers is important if you want a successful business.
  4. Rumors of Tesla wanting to replace Elon Musk [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS AND TWITTER TALK]

    Be advised that, based on how he's conducted himself at Twitter, he does not care how many people he pisses off.
  5. UPDATED PRICING (Post Inflation fears): Harley Livewire S2 Del Mar launching today at 12:40 CST

    It's likely that Harley is doing the same thing my employer does: pricing things based on what sells. Our demand-planners know the market well enough to have a pretty good feeling for how price-sensitive each major SKU is - and they adjust the price to reflect our business goals. Our...
  6. Tesla teases new product "CyberVault" .... what is it?!

    Depends on what people do with it. If people start using them to commit massacres, as they do with firearms, the that's a problem we will need to solve by regulating flamethrowers and their owners.
  7. Tesla teases new product "CyberVault" .... what is it?!

    The richest 20% of the Chinese market is bigger than the US market, population wise. China is a huge automotive market, and getting bigger. Get used to seeing new-product reveals split between the USA, China, and the EU -- because they're all big profitable car markets. In a couple of...
  8. Tesla teases new product "CyberVault" .... what is it?!

    I'm an American and I feel the same way he does. I've lost the privilege of being naive about the lasting damage a pair of semiautomatic pistols can do to a community -- when they are in the hands of a person who should never have been trusted with the lives of others.
  9. Tesla teases new product "CyberVault" .... what is it?!

    The point is that fritter63 suggestion that Tesla should sell gun-related accessories is toxic to Tesla brand for a lot of people. If Tesla were to take a side on the culture-war over guns in America, that would mean that Tesla could only sell cars to about half of the American population (and...
  10. Tesla teases new product "CyberVault" .... what is it?!

    I have lived the downside of America's gun culture, and I want nothing to do with gun stuff. If Tesla's brand got mixed up with gun stuff, that destroys the brand for me. If Tesla gets into gun stuff, I'm out -- I'll sell my MYLR ASAP and GTFO from everything Tesla. I grew up in rural America...
  11. 3D Printing

    I've been using a Prusa i3 to print the missing parts for my car. It's a good printer, and handles a variety of materials. There are better ones out there, and I bought mine from a guy who was upgrading - but it's fully featured and very capable. I'm using ASA filament for car stuff, since...
  12. First Supercharger with Magic Dock CCS Adapter charges up a Rivian

    Given my experience getting electronics manufactured, the only reasonable way they could have the parts available in less than about 5 months is to have started the process before they got the final approval. You can tee up these things months in advance and give the go-signal at the last...
  13. DeLorean Alpha: Taking reservations with an interesting methodology

    I'm all for making Cyber-platforms in different sizes and shapes.
  14. Cannot make this up: Wyoming subset attempt to ban electric vehicles in the state

    I'm under the impression that these large trucks are not road-legal, and so are used exclusively on privately-owned mine-roads.
  15. Cannot make this up: Wyoming subset attempt to ban electric vehicles in the state

    The proposal to ban EVs in Wyoming died in committee. It was successful as a political grandstanding, but a failure as legislation.
  16. Article: It's becoming increasingly clear Tesla is just another car company -- agree / disagree?

    It seems like you're trying to play gotcha games. But the reality is that EV driving patterns are just a little bit different than ICE vehicles. In real life with a Tesla Model Y, the pattern is as follows: Normal day - <= 3 hours highway driving: You leave home with the battery = 90% every...
  17. Article: It's becoming increasingly clear Tesla is just another car company -- agree / disagree?

    I didn't get a chance to do any range-impact testing during the test drive. It was very much the standard ICE test-drive routine. No red flags in a 20-minute drive, and it seemed to be a fully-baked product. But the kind of thing you're mentioning wouldn't have been evident. My Model Y (heat...
  18. Article: It's becoming increasingly clear Tesla is just another car company -- agree / disagree?

    I test drove the F150 Lightning. I can't compare it to the Focus EV (that's a California car), but the F150 Lightning was really well put together.
  19. Bought TSLA stock today

    I'm using BMW, Ford, and GM as comps - but not blindly. BMW because their volume and brand position is similar to Tesla at this time. Ford and GM because I believe Tesla will become one of the American Big 3 when they become a fully mature company. If the market were pricing TSLA-the-stock...
  20. Bought TSLA stock today

    Tesla-the-business is doing great! They're moving the metal, and changing the world. TSLA-the-stock is in a bubble, though, and its price is uncorrelated with the value of Tesla-the-business. As a clueless amateur investor, I cashed out just after a local maximum in 2021 when the stock price...
