Tesla has Capital issues. Tesla is a big zero compared to real car companies.

Tesla has very good tech. Don’t get me wrong. Their car building sucks. That was Musk’s mistake, trying to go it alone. Every major makes better coaches than Tesla.

Why do you think all their top guys are bailing daily.

Some idiot programmer used the following pseudo code:

Start.
Check radiator water level.
Low?
Stop at water source.
End.

I don’t trust anything out of Tesla either. It’s a wash.

It wasn't my fault, my dog ate my homework.......Really, it did.

Must have used the same code that infected a friend’s car back in the late ‘60s...his Ford Falcon drove him into the Erie Canal....
