He is making a good product that people seem to want. He's going thru some growing pains but I think they will pull thru. 600 mile range on the fastest production street car? That's pretty incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmo Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 You realize this thing will be out of reach of most of us right? Looking at 200k base model and go up from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shell game he’s been playing is pretty widely known by most now. I give him credit but, let’s face it, he’s been unable to inspire consumers to look his way and his cars are still seen mostly as gimmicky throw-aways. If he hasn’t been able to “inspire” by now with those massive subsidies, well...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Danger Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 QqThe 3 series car was the turning point for Tesla. The model S and X were always going to be low production cars due to their price but now with the model 3 we are starting to see a more widespread car. I see model 3s all the time now. Tesla will take on a small SUV next that should put them on solid ground financially for the next ten years anyways. Tech is what will keep Tesla around.

Tesla’s are everywhere in the Minneapolis area. Wisconsin is lucky to have cell phone coverage. That says something right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member BOHICA Posted July 6, 2019 Gold Member Share Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) Now that the tax credit credit has expired, Tesla is kind of fucked as being a main stream vehicle/auto manufacture. They will always fill a niche market though. Edited July 6, 2019 by BOHICA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in the almost complete lack of maintenance and I think it does ok on it's own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the big three already have electric trucks in the pipe. Add to that the Rivan concept vehicles and pending production and I think Tesla will take a different path.
