  1. Go against the grain and see the result? Speak as an individual and what happens? Whether black, white, Hispanic? If you anger them….no one is safe

  2. Who thought companies building cars for decades could build a better electric one than one that had zero experience?

  3. Case study in elevating brand recognition; Ye. Worked for Nazi’s, bound to work as well for anyone else.

  4. Its the same ole BS story that companies tell us about mergers and less competition : If this happens it will means lower prices and better service.

  5. It’s amazing watching you guys completely ignore the circus that is the Darrell Brooks trial. I guess it doesn’t fit your narrative.

  6. A distracted Elon will still do more for Tesla than the average “CEO” would do in that role. Until he fails, I’d give the guy the benefit here.

    1. 😆 ok maybe if you’d actually do research on that clown and read less of his Twitter you’d think differently

    3. @LightHouse I’ve been following him since 2012 and don’t use twitter. “Do your research” really shows what you know, too.

  7. Stop turning Mr. Ye into a modern day (God rest his soul) Howard Hughes. It’s not gonna work. #YEEZUS2024 #IMMICHAELNOW

  8. How are people in an apartment complex that houses 5,000 people supposed to charge their vehicles? The existing parking decks were not designed to carry the extra tonnes of weight that would be added by charging stations?

    2. My apartment building just installed a dozen. They’re just like, an electrical cable and a hundred lb of other stuff. Buildings will install the infrastructure, and easily.

    3. @MSNBCULT Battery swaps would be nice. I just don’t see it happening. It’s too much of a pain and stress on the chasis and battery pack. Fortunately rapid/fast charging can fully recharge a batter 3-4 hours. Many get over 50% in ~ an hour. Besides even a half charge is perfectly fine for most city people’s day. Combine that with with wireless charging and power sharing and it fits most needs.

      Still see ICE cars in more rural areas for a long time to come though. Especially diesel for utility vehicles and trucks.

  9. Not to worry people, when your EV dies and there’s no charging station, I’ll bring my diesel powered generator to charge your EV at an exorbitant rate.👍

  10. California can’t keep their lights on but expect millions of people to charge their EV’s. Just not from 8am-8pm🤣🤣🤣🤣.

    2. Actually, CA is using Tesla power walls as virtual power plants to help keep the lights on. They charge up off peak and can send their energy to the grid during peak demand. Nice! Oh, and most people charge their EVs at night when rates are low. It also helps the power company to even out the load.

  11. Katie Porter just proved in no uncertain terms that the current inflation is due mostly to corporate price gouging.

  12. To obtain financial freedom, one must either be a business owner, an investor or both, generating passive income, particularly on a monthly basis.

    1. Yes and me too investing is the fastest way to Financial freedom. Investing is building wealth and that has been my priority thanks. 🙏

  13. Funny sight last night at the gas station. 3 guys standing by the coffee machine talking while outside the wives sat in the car looking pissed off that they have an EV, with their young kids bouncing around the car. Just 2 more hours hunny 👍.

    2. Get real. Nobody charges for 2 hours at a Supercharger. Typically 20-30 mins. Also, nobody with young kids drives for 200+ miles without stopping for food, drink, potty-time.

  14. You can here Licht yelling “NO, NO, PLEASE GOD NO, JUST STOP WITH THE 🦬💩” every time CNN posts something.

  16. Fact, due to the law of this nation what my memory allows says that tesla is not allowed to advertise to compete for their share of the auto market in this nation with the other big car assemblers.
