Such a remarkably overvalued company. I’d be surprised if it’s still around in a few decades. Feels like they’re the MySpace of today - they’re big and have first mover advantage but have nothing interesting down the line and newer companies will and are supplanting it.

If anything, Musk spreading himself thin helps the corporations… He’s literally banned from personally tweeting about SpaceX. They have to be approved first. The less he talks about Tesla, or does anything else to it, the better for Tesla.
I think you mean Musk’s dysfunctions and delusions have become too public to successfully “lead” any company.
I drive a Tesla, and I can definitely say they’re very overpriced for what they are. I also hate the association with Musk. But… I’ve driven a few other EVs over the last few months and ffs… the mindnumbingly stupid decisions in their control software is frankly unforgivable. It feels those cars are still designed by and for people who didn’t have internet in their 40s. For example: all of them don’t remember some or all of the driving characteristics I set them to (regen breaking strength for example). It’s idiotic. And they all use some processor that’s out of date even for phones generations back. And that car is supposed to last 10 years??? Why? On the face of it, I don’t particularly like Tesla, but damn the competition is doing everything they can to stay behind, it feels…
I don’t disagree with those statements but I’d wait to see what they put out from the Mexican factory considering the labor cost advantage and manufacturing experience they’ve gained. Beyond that I agree that Korean and Chinese EVs seem more put together and well see if we get more when the us subsidies end.

Elon’s business model was not to be in the car business long term but the your-car-is-also-a-taxi business and reaping the profits of not just selling cars but ride-sharing too. Triple dipping if you count the supercharger stations, basically collecting a fee every time you use your car. I can see the bull run when things are framed from the perspective of magical Christmasland, but there’s a slightly larger than zero but still basically zero percent chance that FSD on Teslas will ever work autonomously and their cars are getting smoked domestically because they have competition now where they didn’t before.
Nothing interesting? They’ve got the Cybertruck!
Not good. But interesting.

That’s what will really take the comparative stock price of actual automakers into the stratosphere with Tesla you guys, a fucking factory in Mexico. How could Ford or Hyundai match having a factory in Mexico?!
Lol, the last Ford I bought (shit car btw) was built in Mexico. Tell me again why Tesla has 20x the market cap of Ford because it surely ain’t factories in Mexico.
