I find it interesting they have the cars open. Here any car displayed in the mall is locked and usually behind ropes as well.

Remember, these are Tesla "stores" where you can check out and test drive the cars like you would at a traditional dealership.

I thought this was a shot of cars on display in a mall. We have a Tesla store/dealer/whatever a few miles away. Used to be the Mercedes Benz dealership until they built new fancier a few miles up the freeway.

Everyone tells me they're a techology and automation company, yet FSD is crap and the automatic wipers always have a mind of their own. I'd think they'd either be able to handle the basics or really ace the complicated stuff. There's some smart design that's ahead of some and some of the basics were figured out by car companies 20 years ago. Don't get me wrong, I love the car but there's some really dumb things it does that don't make sense, yet I love the interface and how it drives.

That tech stuff is what is supposedly holding the stock high. I heard some expert investor say that Tesla is leaning heavy into automation and thinks the bot thing they're supposedly making is going to revolutionize the world. I don't think there's much truth to that, though I'm obviously not an expert investor that researches all of these crazy tech companies.

Unfortunately Musk like usual is a doofus..(Can we vote him off the island? ). Musks insane claims are holding and tanking Teslas stock. I don't know but maybe Musk is ok with losing $125 Billion in value. I'd have an aneurism if I lost a tenth that much. I'll bet 25 Trillion dollars that Tesla isn't close to anything autonomous. I wish I was able to bet the cockroach the six times he made stupid claims. ALL of US would be insanely wealthy if people had just called him out on his lies. Musk now claims that the roadster 2.0 will "Fly" and will do 0-60 in .9 seconds. Yes nine tenths of a second.

I still think it’s a good product. We just don’t need the fantastical lies to sell them.

If nothing else, we know you have an unhealthy infatuation with Musk.

Maybe take up some sort of hobby?

I’d be happy to see him removed. Not because I disagree with him, but because the perception is damaging the brand.

It’s a weird bit of attention a brand like this just doesn’t need and it’s reflecting in sales numbers.

I'd be happy to see him go back to his day job.

Tesla is no longer Musk's baby, SpaceX is and the mission to Mars.

How is the flight to/from? I’ve heard its quite the flight, and that’s when there aren’t issues, delays, etc.

I guess anyone can get used to it, but as one who hasn’t flown in ten years, I’ve always had a bit of fear over this one.

I used to work at a dealer that was the conduit for cars headed to the auto show every year.
Afterwards we had the job of getting the cars back in shape to be sold.
It's a real job replacing all the broken, and missing parts.
As a group the US public behave like animals.

It’s all over - the other day we are in a brand new A321 in the EU - and the dude next to me has his biker boots propped up on the fancy new bulkhead …
