Some of these are not particularly strong, and they missed several significant ones (Roadster, Cybertruck, Semi, refreshed Model S).

Everything is a boat for a short period of time.

That depends on whether it tilts inwards or outwards when turning a curve. It could be a ship instead.

Technically Tesla fell just short of 500K cars in 2020.

Would love if they linked to a follow-up, showing wether Musk delivered or not on his claims.

Not only for nerds. Like Trump was for years, Musk is living rent free inside the medias head. They hate him and yet they continue to make him.

Tweet controversial things confidently and erratically to build buzz, then just pretend you never said it, and be defended to the death by your horde of passionate believers who know it’s obvious what you really meant to say.

I don’t think Musk is actively as malicious as Trump but the Twitter playbook at least is quite similar.

Is there a new short sell campaign for tesla I'm unaware of?
Re:Elon Musk Promises Tracker by detaro on Wednesday April 07, 2021 @08:24AM (#26723784)
ah yes, because any criticism of dear leader has to be a "short sell campaign"...
Re:Elon Musk Promises Tracker by stunt on Wednesday April 07, 2021 @08:44AM (#26723991)
Not even criticism. Just a list of his promises without any interpretations.
