How do you think things get discussed? Because someone brings them up. Congratulations for pointing out the origin of literally every discussion ever made.
> I'm pretty sure you can use Google
Seriously, give me a link or shut up. When I ask for a citation, you can't just tell me to Google for it. That's not a citation, and I've already explained that when I search I find many articles that contradict your claim and none in support.
> You claimed it would be more profitable than the traditional car companies at scale.
No, not "than the traditional car companies". More profitable than it is at launch. And this argument comes straight from the article, it's not actually my argument, I only rephrased it for brevity:
> And when its battery factory is running at scale, it should be able to produce batteries at a lower price, bumping up its profitability.
Because you've kicked off something that wasn't even discussed.
>Implying that anyone who brings up those legitimate points is a tesla "fanboy" does in fact imply that you're biased against Tesla.
No one was implying anything, no one was saying anything negative or positive about Tesla.
> Every talk he made about the Model 3
I'm pretty sure you can use Google and hear him talk when he says that the Model 3 couldn't happen without the Model S ;) Like the launch event where he said that the people who buy the Model S effectively are paying the way forwards for the Model 3.
I'm also pretty sure when you know that Model 3 owners have to pay for everything including access to the Supercharger network it's not the same as the Model S.
>Yes I did read the article. And first off, I never claimed it would be "highly profitable"
>Literally nobody has made this argument. I do not appreciate being made into a straw man.
You claimed it would be more profitable than the traditional car companies at scale.
"Tesla's car has more luxury options, can upgrade to the autopilot, has access to the supercharger network, has brand cachet, and will be more profitable at scale is a fanboy"
