    It never rains but in pours.

    CT said to be involved in crash with fire involving USC commit now in coma because of smoke inhalation per ESPN.

    Just when you need good publicity ...

    OTOH, not even a freshman and driving a $100k or so vehicle???? In fairness, dad has $$$

    Article I read mentioned the smoke and flames began after the CT was towed away. Alijah was already in the hospital at the time.

    The Cybertruck's design resembles a metal coffin on wheels.

    High speeds will pretty much destroy any vehicle hitting a tree as thick as a power pole.

    My favorite comparison, even though I think the look is great

    True. I have several neighbors who have a CT they all have wrapped them. Red, Black, Bright blue and an urban camouflage pattern that kinda looks like a cow. Would be a great billboard platform for Chick-Fil-A.

    Well looks like I'm in the hole if I closed today, ~$130, $13/share. Still sticking with my schedule to close out in May.

    Robo taxi pump along with number of vehicles being tested in controlled environments news. Still BYD profits show where the competition is for the world sales outside the US and its allies in the EV trade wars.

    He is too predictable. TSLA’s worst earnings report which meant the stock will tank BUT Elon to the rescue with more promises to leave DOGE soon and Robotaxis by next year!

    Don’t be fooled!

    The NHTSA released an announcement they will gather more automated driving metrics. A good thing, many see this as acknowledgement of Tesla's progress.

    Elon spending zero time at Tesla and having an adult run the company would be an eventual positive for Tesla and TSLA, after the stock recovers.

    Immediately canceling the CT, RoboTaxi, the never-to-be-made Sports car, the money-eating Semis, not building 4 more giga facories with whatever $$$ they still have remaining and then actually placing a model 2 into production worldwide would save the company. Elon will do the opposite. Company dead.

    I would suggest the richest man on earth doesn't need our advice on how to get and stay rich.

    I’m not concerned with that at all. A humbling experience might be good for his ego

    Why are you concerned with humbling his ego then?

    Over the years the stock goes stratospheric & folks say this can't be maintained. It comes down to a reasonable amount? Everybody waits for it to "recover".
    hmmmm
