Because Apple won't allow them to connect to Starlink...duh

Saw an article today that said the SEC has a proposal to require ESG listed companies to disclose many of their green attributes and carbon related metrics. It was only a proposal but because it made it into an article it will lend further credence to ESG for some who won't follow up...

I'm not sure he is violating any agreement. Just like when you sign an offer for a home purchase, you still have an inspection period (usually). If after the inspection you offer less, you are not violating anything. I think buying a company is similar. Once they agree to terms there is then...

@Crissa you should run for office. Why is so hard to take a position? 1 press = 125k to 175k vehicles per year. 2 presses for the same vehicle = 250k - 350k vehicles per year. In either case they will take time to ramp up and those won't be 1st-year numbers. I just saw the comments in the...

Lines are not irrelavent. I admit I might be conflating lines with presses. They can only make as many vehicles as the the giga presses will allow. I was assuming 2 presses per "line". I was mistaken before thinking it was one press for the front and one for the back assemblies. From what I...

@Crissa...yes I know. Freemont with multiple lines producing the same vehicle(s)...some of which have been been produced for years now. The same vehicle where lessons learned from other factories can also be applied.

@Crissa...yes I know, on multiple lines after years of practice at multiple facilities.

@Crissa I'm asking because I'm catching criticism for saying I don't think the CT is going to ramp production up to 250k vehicles in the first couple years. I'm basing that on the 1 CT line available at 1 factory. If it takes 3 lines at one factory and I'm assuming at least 1 more line at...

@Crissa yes the factories did. But did one line produce 200k vehicles? They built ~906k model 3 and y vehicles combined at Berlin, Freemont and Shanghai combined. Each of those factories I assume has multiple lines. I'm asking what is the most vehicles to come off one line at one factory...

Depends on how you define ramp up. I think going from no land for a factory, to producing 150-200k Model Ys off one line and another 100k CTs off another line in the course of 3 years is pretty damn good. Then ramp up by 50% that 100k to 150k the next year. Still very impressive when...

He finally took the 10 minutes to get a quote. His current insurance is with Geico. With Telsa Insurance his price here in CO would drop by about $30/mo. This is pretty significant drop for just one car if you ask me. He did not know if Tesla would insure none Tesla vehicles. Also, it's...

I'm sure you are right. I'm also sure people would have made that same argument Dec 20th after it dropped from over $1200 to under $900. They would have made greater returns holding the short position to under $700 or less depending on what the next couple months hold. Then again...people who...

I've said it before; I don't currently buy stock or actively invest in anything except real property. So take this for what it's worth. It's simple arithmetic people. When I see lower highs AND lower lows over the course of several months, and if I take emotion out of it, and look only at...

I never said they didn't have intentions. They may have intended to save money from the release to the production...but how many people did? Based on what we know about credit card debt in this country, I'd guess very few. And they didn't hand over a Ben Franklin, they ran that same old piece...

Maybe, but I just think $100 deposit is easy. Actually buying the $40k - $70k truck is harder. Plus lots of the multi-reservation holders will only buy 1. If I'm not mistaken, the other vehicles had multiple lines at multiple factories. The CT is being built on 1 line at 1 factory for now...

Or maybe he (EM) thinks the conversion rate of reservation holder to purchaser will be lower then what they saw with their previous reservations. I know there was a poll asking that question here a while back. I don't remember what our collective majority thought the conversation rate would...

I gave my co-worker a homework assignment. He drives a Model 3. He came here from California and he agreed with others here that Tesla insurance in CA was more expensive then both USAA and Geico (which he currently uses). Now that he lives in CO it will be interesting to see what the Tesla...

If the 500 mile EV RAM comes out before the CT, I'll strongly consider it.

I don't short. I don't understand the stock market. I don't even invest in the market. I have 0 equity in any ROTH, IRA, nor 401k. The only thing I have is is a little invested in TSP but I stopped contributing to that more then a decade ago. Having said that, I think shorting is probably...
