“Oh, the Tesla....! The media darling that nobody will buy.”

Name ANY car that has over 400k people putting money on the table to reserve the car before it is built!

I can’t name a single other car company that has 400,000 people waiting. Why is that? The other car companies actually sell people cars, not take their money on the promise that they’ll get a car—someday. What kind of moron puts down money on a car that they’ve never seen or test-driven? Rich people with F-you money, that’s who. That’s not how normal people operate. Give me a car today or I walk, I don’t buy a car like it’s an iPhone. Most people don’t.

And I’ll bet you any amount of money on earth that that 400,000 figure is full of crap. I was reading stories two years ago that Tesla was ready to go under. Hillary was up by 9 points in Utah on election day, you remember Mark Twain’s old saying about statistics, right?

How many will still be living when it is built and delivered?
