They nailed the takeoff and flight but hammered the landing.

I loved how there was total silence for a while till the radio voice says good job everyone. Sounds like they are trying to stay positive but given the situation it could easily be read by someone as snark.

"aeroshelled Arcimoto" - reminds me of the Corbin Motors Sparrow. By Cyndigohl - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0 Not as sporty as an Arcimoto though.

Yes, I agree that the used market is a good way to recycle. EVs will make better recycle options than ICE vehicles overall. For years, I could only afford very cheap used cars. The problem was in finding ones that could actually be trustworthy. For a while, I was having trouble where I would...

So let me get this straight. An ICE vehicle company run by a family that is currently trying to decide if it will oust the current president of VW because he is too enthusiastic about moving to EV's is saying that they want to develop an alternative version of hydrocarbon fuel so that they don't...

How do you propose that we deal with the current ICE stack subsidies? There are huge tax incentives or direct subsidies going to oil companies. There are crazy polluting externalities of CO2 emissions that are not being addressed. Between these 2 items, ICE is getting quite the sweet deal. I am...

This will be interesting... I wonder how long it will take to build out and how available it will be. Like a single charger per location will be sad. Also, if these are located in places with very little electrical infrastructure, will they have capacity for multiple high speed charging in a row?

The anonymousness of the current monied speech is a large part of what I find to be a problem. When a single large donor makes a pack that is named as though it is a grass roots organization that is promoting some issue, I find that to be deceptive and should be stopped. Here in the Seattle...

I think the difference though is around risk. I would think the tequila would be problematic around getting a license from the state. And a flame thrower? What’s the insurance premium on selling a flame thrower? Things like the short shorts and the whole model names of S3XY would be problematic...

And if Tesla were thinking about merging with some large auto company they could delay and save billions in the deal because the further out we go the cheaper they will be.

And tequila, and flame throwers, and short shorts.... Seems like a part of Tesla’s character is to sell highly exclusive gag/status/extreme products. I have yet to see any other auto related company where that kind of product line would be even remotely acceptable.

So this just seems like Detroit is trying to keep itself alive but in the process is just going to solidify how badly it will lose. It's not like people enjoy going to dealerships. Much like hiring a lawyer, there are times it is unavoidable but for any other instance, most people I know stay...

Tesla loophole for direct sales in Michigan is getting shut with impressive political backstabbing After years of fighting, Tesla thought it was safe from Michigan’s latest effort to prevent car dealers from having competition from new automakers, but now we learn that the state legislature...

To make the same revenue. Profit would be after expenses and that has a lot of other considerations beyond just the raw sales price.

I used to live somewhat close to a busy interstate and never really liked going outside because the sound from the traffic was loud enough to make it difficult to communicate. So my next residence we moved far from the interstate and it is soooo much quieter. I enjoy being outdoors sooooo much...

I try to always try to take the author's statements with a grain of salt. And imagine what might have been meant.

Just don’t let it go to your head cause luck goes both ways.

That’s basically what I do. Every once in a while (like over 1 year apart or more) I remember that I have an account and go check it. Happily, last time I checked it turned out that I had bought some Tesla shares clear back before the split at $165. I didn’t even know I had it. But that had...

I’m curious how this will play out for the stock price over time. In the short term, as the institutional funds but in, the price will certainly go up. But there are already so many people who think that Tesla is over priced. So once the price has gone up a while I’d expect the unbelievers to...

So much less stress to just buy and hold. I wonder how the extra profit proclaimed will compare to the lost revenue over night tonight.
