They just sold a bottle of 1929 Macallan scotch recently at a sothebys auction for 1.9 million dollars. That means one one oz shot is worth more than a brand new 2020 Porsche 911.This is what I had :

Tesla = Not Done
- Thread starter 92122
- Start date
We all just got notice around here in Santa Cruz county that PG&E is going to turn our power off starting tomorrow for 36 to 48 hours due to extreme fire conditions. If this start becoming the new norm around here, you are fvcked if you own a Tesla and want to do any kind of distance traveling.
$7,500 tax credit for 2018 delivery.
A $2,000 check from another rebate program.
An $850 SDG&E credit last month that has wiped out my last 2 months power bills.
No issues with the car (yet) and still feel I would never buy a gas powered car again with a truck as my first vehicle.
It will be interesting to see how Tesla evolves. I hear it’s a bit chaotic working there, and having worked at fast growth successful companies in the past that’s not surprising.

Yep here too, $10k credit went a long way with our taxes 2018, ended up w a refund when we thought we were going to pay!
Plug it in. a full charge goes ~300 miles, plenty enough to get to the next area with power on!
Sure is nice to not have to goto the gas station every 3 days....
Only wish we'd gotten in on the stock as it will probably only go up from here.
GWS you dog!!! sell me some on the cheap!! lol...

Saw a headline today that China is halting their Tesla 3 production (temporarily?) due to the corona virus issue.
Not sure how much that will affect their near term bottom line?

"Apple and Tesla are among the biggest U.S. companies with footprints in China, Ives says. Foxconn, the main assembler of iPhones, is located in Zhengzhou, China, while Tesla’s Gigafactory 3 is based in Shanghai. Roughly 20% to 30% of Apple and Tesla’s sales growth over the next year is forecast to come from China, he said."

When is the party!Looking good, but I'm always reluctant to count my chickens before the eggs have hatched and I have sold the freaking position.
Still holding...
October
Today
(really though, congrats)
they referenced a 10 day shutdown mandated by local chinese authorities on the
earnings call today, but since they are in such early phases AND ahead of their
stated schedule on the Chinese factory they brushed it off as just a blip
they also alluded to some big news around their battery operations coming up.
there have been a few articles talking about the "million mile battery" which basically
means that you could own this car for life, similar to how they are talking about the
cybertruck...it also counteracts complaints people have about battery waste when the
thing effectively never needs to be discarded. this will be key for their FSD fleet goals
as well where owners will have the option to let out their vehicle for ridesharing.
it also looks like they may terminate their agreement with Panasonic and start
manufacturing their own cells which will further reduce their cost
I got an Audi E-tron yesterday for a few day trial. Very nice. Much more like a traditional luxury car interior. Way more bells and whistles than the Tesla. Great looking car.
My initial impression is it's a great car with dollar to dollar more for your money than a Model X....but that depends on how important range is to you. As a grocery getter with an occasional evening out and 20-40K cheaper it's range is more than enough and going to be a compelling option.....until the Model Y comes out at this price point. Then it's for the consumer to decide if range or features is what's more important.

Now, all they have to do is start actually making income......
Someday they might, and when reality sets in their stock might be worth $200.
I'd be eyeing a profit grab before too long.
Ya, saw that after hours report spike starting yesterday.
I like the P/E ratio shown. If actually reported it'd be like 240 or something I hear?
Will be interesting if it hits $1000 before reality sets in.
Hmm, Bitcoin or Tesla? Decisions.
Yes. Stop for lunch near a supercharging station or park at one in Scottsdale and you're pretty much good to go. Probably have to stop at another for 15-20 minutes on the way home. How often would an average person do a drive like that anyway? Maybe once every 5-10 years?
We take road trips like that multiple times a year
I also drive to the Bay Area to see my parents multiple times a year as well
