Morgan Stanley is predicting 50 deliveries in 2023, 30k deliveries in 2024, and 78k deliveries in 2025.
it looks like I have plenty of time to save up money.
I donāt doubt that.
Tesla has been strong on matching production to orders. Unlike legacy makers who sell through dealerships, Tesla doesnāt get stuck with unsold inventory.
Tesla has said it can produce 125k CTs in the first year and 250,000 CTs annually after that. Maybe it will and maybe...
Every single CT not rolled off the line and so not sold in the first year or two or even three brings in greater net loss. The sunk costs are already sunk. Isnt it better to sell 50% more product at 25% less revenue per unit than to either have unsold inventory or production capacity sitting...
People in Toronto, Ontario who have their names on the wait list for season tickets for the Toronto Maple Leafs put the right to the tickets as bequests in their wills.

Kitchen knifes would show rust. Non-galvanized nails corrode.
If kept inside drawers, it takes a long time for knifes to show rust and even then it seems to be amenable to removal easily.
But Iām guessing that the Tesla 30x steel will be a lot more āstainlessā than kitchen knifes.
I currently live in a very mild climate. In July and August the average high is 23Ā° C. In January the average low is -1 Ā° C. I donāt have to worry about extreme cold. I donāt even have a garage. (I do have problems with my brakes rusting if I donāt use a vehicle for several weeks as Iām about...
