They're also in a doom-fluffing loop, thanks to Elon.
Elon pisses off a large arm of the existing customer base, and they start talking smack about Elon, Elon gets more dogmatic, more people reject him, he digs deeper...
Meanwhile, nobody watches the store, they ship a bad product, don't produce new competitive ones and slip behind in competitiveness, fire the infrastructure recharger team...
Tesla, you've matured to the point you have to start acting like a mature corporation, or you're gonna end up dying a broke spinster.
And we have seen stories of "EV hiding" - both sales and hiding stock. I think geniuses at car companies are 'gaming the system' taking payments from EXXON. Seriously. But this is a rant, I only have the articles, the data and past behaviour.
@arstechnica Selling shitty cars and truck like things and loose market share and value should be elementary to anyone except a genius like Musk. Tesla is destined to be the next Twitter.
@arstechnica This questions the idea that Elon Musk is a once-in-a-generation genius. As this goes against my biases, I dismiss it out of hand, and assert that Teslas are selling really well AND are being paid for in dogecoin BECAUSE number goes up is a good idea WHICH DOES NOT look anything like a meaningless inflationary bubble.
@arstechnica the lease of our ID.3 is nearing it's end. For the next car we need a tow hook and some towing capacity. Not much, but some timber/lumber for renovations and such.
@arstechnica couldnt happen to a nicer piece of shit, er, ah guy.
And couldn't happen to a nice trash company, er ah, currently way overvalued eventual acquisition target ...
