That's what you actually said "Tesla cannot actually access the FSD monies until they release features" - I am saying yes they can. If by saying money you don't mean cash and cash equivalents, I don't know what you mean. You're still wrong saying that SEC eyes Tesla's bank account - it doesn't

That's not how any of this works, either from a sale of a car, FSD or Tesla Tequila, Tesla manages its cash and not SEC. Tesla can spend FSD or any cash available as they please. Now if Tesla were to include those amounts as revenue/net income on their financial statements without actually...

Nice, but still with handles...

I doubt Giga Austin will produce in 2022 as many cars as Fremont is producing now. Fremont produces now S, X, M3 and MY, so less economies of scale. S/X are the most labour intensive in Tesla's lineup, M3 is close second and MY probably has the most automated production line at Fremont. In...

Thanks for this summary. In comparison 10k quoted by Elon seems too high, I wonder if this includes SpaceX employees as well, Starship production is more labour intensive.

Betamax vs VHS, BluRay vs HD-DVD, USB vs FireWire, all those have been concluded without government involvement, history will be repeated in this case as well

And I have read somewhere that tomorrow Tesla changes its name to Vesla

The Plaid Plus Model S will be 1 sec. quicker in 0-60 and will fit in a regular garage. That's what people with money are looking for. As for tri-motor CT, it will not compete for Porsche 911 buyers, it will compete against Raptors and TRXs

If Tesla delivers on specifications and price there will be very few who would not take delivery and even those will be sold to others like hotcakes

I wouldn't rely much on that presentation, Tesla might change battery plans as long as they stay within announced performance specifications for the CT

I come to this forum to discuss subjects related to the Cybertruck but from time to time I see discussions started on political and economic systems. I made a mistake today to engage in such a discussion. In order to keep this forum cleaner, I will remove my such commentary. I am not expecting...

I am thinking about laser etching something on my Cybertruck, and a duplicate tattoo on my body. Good enough for a Memento sequel?

Austin Terafactory complex will need it's own police and telegraph stations

Just read about it, I thought it's a thing of the past. I take my lol back lol

Agree with everything but the clay model lol

lower payload for the tri-motor version wouldn't pass marketing department's approval ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My understanding is that ALON has a thermo conductivity about x4 higher than regular glass. So I see no problem for that snow to be quickly melted from cabin heat. But I am not a materials engineer so my words don't have much weight...

Some say that the Cybertruck will not need windshield wipers at all because the windshield glass will be so polished that nothing will stick to it. Although I am still skeptical it will be made of aluminium oxynitride, maybe for tri-motor version only or as an option

Yes, I would definitely do it but border crossing and insurance would complicate the thing for me. I hope one day Tesla will be able to have the cars delivered by themselves, driving in FSD.
