I have nothing against him, and without him and Tesla I don’t think there would be a Mach E or F150 Lightning yet, I just don’t get the blind fan boi group. But I don’t get the Apple fan boi group either who acts like everything Apple does is perfect and every other competitor is garbage. There are some Ford fan bois around too.

I can only imagine that Tesla's open patents shaved a good 8-10 years off of EV development for many manufacturers including Ford.

I think that his run of everything he touches turning to gold is coming to an end. He did a lot for the EV market and forcing other manufacturers to catch up, but since buying Twitter simply because he couldnt keep his mouth shut, he has almost single handedly killed the stock of 2 of his companies. And dont get me started on his Boring Company and what a sham that is.

As for Space X, I dont understand why everyone thinks it is so revolutionary to reuse a rocket. Pretty sure that the shuttle program did that too with their boosters. And Space X has far less hoops to jump through than NASA ever did since they are a private company and not a gov. entity.
Every attempt I made to see a Mach E has been futile.
Even when checking stock online and driving to the dealership and when I get there they say the website data is inaccurate.
I've called dealerships, placed my name on a client list...and nothing...oh well.

That whole twitter thing...Looks like the Tesla BoD is looking to have him step down from being the "face" of Tesla.

I have seen plenty. Definitely not a mustang because it looks ugly. The lightning looks good, a year ago i was thinking of buying one but the prices are out of hand and dealers are marking up the MSRP.

Getting even worse. Funny thing is people saying they can’t wait for the 24s. Chip shortage is out of control
