I think interest is real. I’ve seen a lot of people talking about wanting one. Not met anyone who ordered one, but I believe I saw a couple friends online say they did. This looks like a game-changer if they can avoid these types of problems. We shall see.

Despite their use of government resources, Telsa is also in itself an incredible innovator via Elon Musk. They will likely change this industry like no one in the US since Henry Ford. I hate that their hand is in the till, but this is a rare one that would be doing great things without it. It’s no scam like many of them. I am cautiously rooting for Tesla to succeed.

300,000 of them pre-ordered with all those people tying up $1,000 in cash?

I just don’t see it.

I think it’s a cover story for throwing around $300,000,000 at Tesla.

Musk is Affirmative Action of Automobiles. He only exists because liberals want him.

When you read the article, you see that they ALREADY HAVE these problems.
