  1. Tesla Q1 2025 earnings report call summary (Grok's interpretation)

    We are constantly being told that Americans don't want to work, and creating jobs is silly. I suspect those are the types of jobs Optimus will fill first, and the world will rejoice. But yes, eventually people will get upset when they lose their jobs to a sim. At that point, it will be a cash...
  2. Prices on 2024 Inventory Were Just Dropped

    I'm just waiting for cheap interest. I suspect its coming by some time in May. I was going to trade in my only remaining ICE car, but if Tesla does 0%, I think I'll finance the entire amount, and sell that car to Carvanna, which is offering 20% more. Ill use the revenue from that sale, to add...
  3. Prices on 2024 Inventory Were Just Dropped

    Where the LLC helps is it clarifies that the vehicle is for business purposes. It cleans up the transaction. So everything looks clean on the return, which can help a audit be more seamless. But if you don't have business income, and a real business need for a business vehicle, you are going to...
  4. Prices on 2024 Inventory Were Just Dropped

    I'm good with the current incentive, just need the low interest financing, and I'll going to pull the trigger. I do have an open referral that someone ordered last week. Hopefully that fills soon, and I get that credit applied to my account, before rates drop. Also, if you're already a Tesla...
  5. Cybertruck Q1 2025 Deliveries (Lowest to Date) [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    VW overcame the most difficult public perception to eventually become the largest auto manufacturer in around 70 years. If that is possible, anything is possible.
  6. What happens April 1 and beyond

    I agree, using leverage is foolish. Only buy high conviction stocks, and only with long term cash. Keep consumer debt low, so you don't get desperate and make bad investment decisions. Ultimately if consumers want to make a purchase, they have to pay for it. Cash is king as Dave Ramsey says. But...
  7. What happens April 1 and beyond

    I agree with you, today. But keep in mind Tesla sold a version of Model Y for $64,000 at one point. 2 years later, the newest, fully loaded Tesla is $12k less. Tesla is great at lowers costs.
  8. What happens April 1 and beyond

    I think the original prices would have taken over the truck market. I also think Tesla can get in the ball park of those. Maybe $10K higher on each. I think a low $60's AWD with a 160 to 165 kWh pack will be the number 1 selling truck on the market. I don't think it will outsell the current...
  9. What happens April 1 and beyond

    Maybe its semantics, but I don't believe demand for Cybertruck has changed at all. I believe they have simply filled the addressable market of $80 to 120K trucks. They will continue to sell at that price point, but not in high volumes. That price range supports 8 to 10K units per quarter tops...
  10. What happens April 1 and beyond

    I don't know the OP, and I can see your rationalization, but some people do have a high investment conviction. In that case, we are right in the middle of a strong buying opportunity for most equities, because of a narrative of peak fear. The old adage of buy when everyone is selling, and sell...
  11. Cybertruck T-boned by drunk driver going 60mph, but father and daughter saved

    Not everyone understands irony in the form of sarcasm. Really need a font for that!
  12. What happens April 1 and beyond

    Don’t rush! If they don’t give you the 1.99, ask them to put your reservation back on hold, and you’ll wait until you can get a good rate. If they say they can’t, then you cancel. You’re going to pay over $14k in interest at that rate. If you wait until they give you the good rate, you’ll save...
  13. What happens April 1 and beyond

    I think as they reach production efficiencies, they will add additional cells to the pack. When Model X first launched it had 60 and 75 kwh packs. It got upgraded to 90 kwh packs, and eventually the 100 kwh packs we have today. Tesla was still a baby company in 2015 when X came out, and I am...
  14. What happens April 1 and beyond

    I don't think so, it would be for a very limited run of left over 2024 inventory models. Once those are gone, they are gone. Tesla wedged themselves between a rock and a hard place by over producing 2024 models, while 2025 models are essentially $7500 cheaper. Many people cancelled their 2024...
  15. What happens April 1 and beyond

    This is great advice! If the 1.99% is that important, at that income, then this is about getting a great deal, not affordability. I think June poses a fantastic opportunity for better deals. I also think from now until June, the pressure to clear 2024 inventory is going to grow. But I think with...
  16. Rapid depreciation

    The Cheapest Cybertruck on Carvana right now is $83,500
  17. Rapid depreciation

    To that point, at least wait until after this summer, before you take a huge loss. If Elon is correct about Robotaxi network, the truck should be able to generate income for you as a ride/haul share. If that is the case, talk to your qualified tax attorney. Any ride share should be in an LLC. If...
  18. DIDN’T GET THE $7,500 FEDERAL TAX CREDIT!

    That is very comforting to know. I've been talking to my tax preparer, to figure out if I might qualify for the commercial EV tax credit anyway. I do reviews on a website, and I usually have $15k or so in taxable income from that. I have the opportunity to do some reviews for Cybertruck stuff...
