Tesla Inc. is no longer selling the majority of new electric cars registered in California, the state that accounts for almost a third of all

    What I’ve learned from insightful interactions in this thread is that Teslas are in fact the best car in existence, bar none. This whole situation about Elon Musk deciding to speak up as a fascist is just all very unfortunate. Other than the fascism thing, the only nits with Tesla is the image, and the countless broken promises, deceit and outright fraud should be ignored because other companies lie and cheat, too.

    Musk already got what he wanted. He bought Trump, and Trump will give Palantir every ounce of government data to analyze, which was likely a sticking point for Palantir to cement them as the only viable product for the US governments future military applications. Once pandoras box is open for classified data its a little bit hard to close it, especially once they gain a dependence on it.

    Palantir then buys his crappy xAI platform that recently bought Twitter.

    In Europe Tesla isn’t even #1 on EV anymore, they have been surpassed by VAG aka Volkswagen Group.
    Depending on how you compare, they are probably a little bit more expensive, but also higher quality.

          Hmm. Long term is a more difficult constraint.

          I think short term can be just as effective at damaging Musk.

          It’s hard to be mobile with deflated tyres.

          Even just a dirty windshield and rear camera (on the top of the tailgate) will reduce Tesla share price without running the risk of a prison sentence.
