Wait, you can block people on here. And all these years and money spent on therapy from all the hurt feelings on here that could have been avoided.

Nope. I can speak for California. I have sat in commercial development meetings where the utilities are saying add all the EV charging you want. We frequently have days now where all the demand is covered by renewable energy. Meaning where once the power provider has to pick up 100% of the...

You are my hero. You probably just summarized an entire afternoon of research. Thank you,

It’s probably been posted, but did you see how the launch obliterated the launch tower foundation. It completely took out a grade beam that must have been 20’ wide 30’ deep and 100’ long. That’s nuts. I am sure the structural engineering manual doesn’t deal much with vast quantities of rocket...

To just put this in perspective. He probably spent less then $5B on Giga Texas so far, which will have about 10,000 employees. He spent $44B on Twitter which had 7,500 employees now seems like they have about half that. This may go down in history as the dumbest purchase ever. It will definitely...

Healthy competition in the truck market should only help the pricing so keep bringing it ford!

The goal is to get butts in EVs. Not make the most efficient competent car ever. The SEXY line up are definitely not for everyone. And as Ford is showing us. The most efficient, lowest drag coefficient doesn’t necessarily win. I am saying Tesla should buy Alpha because their design will open an...

Tesla needs to buy Alpha Motors and open themselves to a new style. All their cars look the same and they are good looking cars, but not game changer aesthetically. An Alpha Tesla would be incredible and this world really needs Alpha Motors to succeed. I think a lot of people buy Teslas because...

I am not talking about powering a vehicle necessarily just storing energy. Yes hydrogen fuel cells will lose about 40% energy to heat but they are still the most efficient way to extract energy from fuels. Even at a 40% loss hydrogen is still over 100x more energy dense than lithium battery...

I sort of agree. As far as space is concerned hydrogen is way way more energy dense than lithium ion batteries. Yes there are more complications to the storage and production, but for the purpose that it seems they are looking for this to be used hydrogen is likely a better option. I read...

What about the taxes and other fees on both purchases?

I would imagine that with mass production it would be easier to set it up for the most complicated option and produce that first to immediately make use and profit off your machinery. Then turn off sections/skip/reduce the assembly line to make simpler versions. Adding complexity to an already...

Once you go minivan you don’t go back. I think ours has 20 cup holders and I am fairly certain we almost fill them all up frequently. The auto sliding doors, low threshold. Wide aisles for the kids to get themselves around in. Seats disappear when we need to haul larger cargo. Oh and most...

Sit 8 people and allow little kids to get in and out by themselves and have 2 cup holders per seat

There won’t be any $25k car anytime soon without another big government subsidy or some crazy battery breakthrough. Tesla has too many other projects and I really don’t see that one coming to the front line any time soon. Maybe 10 years from now. I suppose maybe with all their innovations coming...

Ok. That first GM electric hummer commercial was one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I know Tesla doesn’t want to advertise but their market is going to have a lot of competition soon and people will simply forget who is the best. The lightning seems amazing until you compare it side by...
