I will never, not ever, buy an electric or hybrid vehicle. If someone gave me one, I’d sell it immediately - for scrap, if necessary.

The website is named Fool.com.
What’s on people’s minds is: is this gold or a fool’s errand?
If any one can make the electric car profitable its Tesla and they’re in it to play big or to go home.

Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas is calling Tesla “the most important car company in the world.”
Then it must be true.

Tesla is a taxpayer-funded hipster cult catering to overpaid Silicon Valley “men” who carry designer handbags.

“...and they’re in it to play big or to go home.”
In either case, with taxpayer dollars!

A $5 billion factory is a substantial investment - if they do what they say they can.
The worst investors face is losing their shirts.

If Tesla ‘m cars ran on hype they’d have the closest thing to a perpetual motion machine.

Tesla is far from stupid. They knew they had to get away from the confiscatory taxation and tax-and-spend socialist liberals controlling Taxifornia — it was an easy call to head for Nevada. The money saved or never needed is huge. The liberal fools in the Taxifornia State Legislature are just that, and continue to drive business and tax-paying individuals out of the state.
Nothing new.

I was just thinking that they should sell the Tesla Hype.

So what is Tesla going when China builds a battery factory their Mao III that uses the same basic battery as the Tesla cars at half the price? Japan? Korea?. How much state and federal help has been given to Tesla? Perhaps another Solyndra here?

I honestly thought that the GRID couldn’t handle it and with 40% of electrical power coming from coal, it made no sense...

They have a 200 mile claimed range.
Then it takes what an hour to recharge?

The Motley Fool is one of the best financial advice sources out there.
Don’t let the name fool you.

Golf cart for shopping around the house? Yes (expensive)
Family car or long distance travel? No
Long time to charge, batteries will cost more than depreciated car after few years.
Propane seems much better solution.
