    hey remember that time you deliberately removed yourself from this thread because you have some weird boomer thing about 'classic cars'?

    it was before you admitted that teslas are everywhere but after we stopped listening to you.

    Oh hell, I’m lured in again....

    Here’s a thought for the day. Analogous to sports wagering, there is public money and there is sharp money.


    I suppose somewhere, someone sold their stock because of that kabuki theater.

    What is strange is that the windows should have been an extension of their solar roof which is actually stronger than the body panels. It is remarkable engineering that something transparent can be more crashworthy than sheet metal.

    But that is not what sells cars. Other than niche product like Volvo’s.

    Indeed, for a whole host of reasons the Tesla is remarkably safe. The bulletproof windows schtick is huckster Elon. The guy is PT Barnum. The whole episode is remarkable insight.

    I’m not disparaging PT Barnum or Elon for being showmen. Just know the players.
    Remarkable.

    That’s what you Canucks call a hat trick, Simpdog?

    At least when it comes to Tesla, Sanlmar has been weighed, he has been measured, and he has been found wanting.

    San secretly wants to purchase a self driving Tesla but doesn’t want to admit it.

    Come out of the closet and put down your deposit so Elon can keep afloat.

    "Tesla Cybertruck comes in dead last against GM, Ford and Rivian in consumer survey"

    this is exactly what i was talking about; truck owners arent going to cop a cybertruck.

    whats absolutely fascinating is that they dont need to; by all appearances an awful lot of people are interested in owning one who dont even necessarily consider it a truck, much less consider themselves potential truck people.

    and thats the core of the tesla phenomenon, imo.

    honestly i never ever ever thought id purchase a new car, literally ever.

    but a tesla is so much better than just a car, its just massive value.
