Cars, it's electric! Do Do Do

excuse me...my focus cost $18,000....has gotten me 198,000 miles so far with absolutely nothing of significance breaking (thermostat housing gasket)...14 years old, still have not replaced ONE light bulb in the car...doesnt burn any oil...original clutch is still great...(Iggy got nearly 300k out of his) I can change any HVAC control without needing to scroll thru a tablet (3 dials is still the best system ever)...I can turn on my wipers without scrolling thru a tablet.....I have a clutch pedal and a tach...

This is why they don't sell them here anymore... they need cars that don't last so long.

Tesla reported its revenue fell 9%, with auto revenue falling 20%. Adjusted income tumbled 39%. Those drops were bigger than forecast. It’s net income, the strictest definition of its profitability, plunged 71% compared to a year earlier.

Tesla warned investors in early April that it had suffered its biggest drop in sales in its history during the first quarter, delivering 50,000 fewer vehicles compared to the first three months of last year. The sales plunge meant that Tesla recorded its lowest sales in nearly three years.

I'm still not sure why Tesla stock is still worth so much. Look at the market cap

Because it's not a car company, it's a tech company!!

One thing that stood out to me with the earnings is if you took away the BS carbon credits they get a ton of money for, they'd be losing money. They're basically being subsidized by other companies.

Elon has well and truly fuct Tesla. Not just in America but Europe as well. The crap he pulled in Germany pushing and supporting the ultra right wing party. Who would have thought people in Europe were a little sensitive about Germany going hard right?

I’m with you. I also don’t want to spend $60k on an EV. So, if the Slate materializes, I could see picking one up, selling my new daily, getting the wife a
New something, and still have my other 4wd vehicle for camping a trips.
