It doesn't matter what business we're talking about. If you can't afford to pay the costs associated with running it, it's not a viable business. It's pretty fucking simple math.

And no, we're not talking about "to big to fail" business (that SHOULD be allowed to fail, IMHO) we're talking about AI, that thing they keep trying to shove down our throats and that we keep saying we don't want or need.

You can just get an adapter. I have a Tesla wall connector and it works fine with my non-Tesla and a $100 adapter.

The problem is that you can't use the Superchargers with an adapter. You can use the non-Supercharger ones... I forget what they're called... but not the Supercharger because of how it handles the money aspect.

In case we needed another reason to hate dealers...

Now it just needs an NACS connector...

It's a fair point that there are different laws in different countries (or states) when it comes to PEV's and those could affect what people buy. But I still don't see it. Bikes have been around for a very long time, as has bad weather. If covered bikes were going to be a thing, they would be already.

I see the world rapidly realizing it doesn't need to pedal its bikes anymore. I can't see it adding pedals to things that have already had them removed...

and for me being forced in to one pedal driving was not ideal.

I don't know anyone with an EV who hasn't eventually moved to one pedal driving. It's one of those things that you think feels weird at first but once you try it for a few days you never want to go back.

Make the ER pro for 50k and you could sell them all day. But you can’t even order that option, much less get it for that price.

This is the obvious issue. They marked the base model up by $12k before it ever came out and then didn't make any. I would have one right now if I could get one for $40k like they said originally and I don't even like trucks!

He had also asked me about what I did for work and when I mentioned some of the stuff I did, he made a condescending remark to me too.

Lol, car salesman making condescending remarks on someone else's job! That's the funniest shit I've read all day!

My Model X was in the shop for ELEVEN MONTHS because Tesla decided it's more important to sell new cars than to use those parts for repairs. And it wasn't anything weird like parts for the gull wing doors, it was suspension parts.

You should REALLY look into that shit before buying another Tesla. I love that car, but no way am I buying another Tesla until they get their supply chain shit together.

Also, don't forget that starting next year pretty much every EV will be using Tesla's NACS connector and charging network going forward. That's no longer a reason to buy Tesla.

People like to hate on Tesla around here, but they were at least fighting the good fight against dealers. Doing the right thing for the wrong reason still counts.

An entire city built and run by a single billionaire... what could possibly go wrong?

Not to be that guy, but it's "as opposed to". Hope this helps in the future!
