I'm 80, I can't wait forever. I'll take 3 now, no FSD. Current AP is enough to make me very happy. Can I have a test mule to drive?? I have 186k miles on my S now. Turn me lose with a mule and watch me go?

Exactly.

Unless the task was already planned for, it takes time to spin up new workers and assign them work.

-Crissa
We were behind on a project and the boss wanted to add more people to the project to get it back on schedule and one of my coworkers pointed out to my boss that it takes 9 months to make a baby, no matter how many men you put on the job.

He also pointed out that just because a job takes 1000 man-hours doesn't mean 1000 men can do it in an hour.

They have stopped taking orders for the Lightening.
Gonna be a long, lonely winter.
I drove a lighting last week. It was the basic $41k model. Impression was Meh. In general it was a great truck but that 230 mile range is rough. You get a truck for its robust capabilities and range is probably one of my biggest concerns now having been behind the wheel. The guage said 130 miles remaining while I was test driving. That really makes me want to see what others come out with before taking the leap. There are quite a few trips that are in the 200-300 mile range and it would be rough having to stop in the middle to charge.

the Bot isn't distracting or delaying from the CT, Semi or Roadster, so relax. people seem to think EM alone is the only guy in all of his projects... he isn't... he has managers.
Its a silly narrative, started by a hater, I guess. Funny thing is, I have heard a couple of popular youtubers repeat the same thing... which goes to show how information is parroted from one channel to the next without a thought.

Please don’t repeat stupid rumors as truth.
