Established dealers with service networks is how money is minted by the dealers. Routine maintenance, warranty “service”, collision repair of body on frame ICE powered vehicles are very profitable together with coownership of Enterprise rental franchises as the vehicles being serviced stack up...

Speaking of opinions NOT politics, what do future Cybertruck owners think is the root cause of the forest fires threatening population centers on the west coast of the US again this summer. I personally believe bad Forest Management is the immediate cause not global warming. I’m a part time...

I beg to disagree Terry, TSLA, is like every other Future DJIA stock before it enters the S & P 500 average after it starts earning a net profit. Enjoy the ride. The purpose of an investment vehicle is beating dollar devaluation/ inflation. It’s doing that well. Tesla happens to make actual...
