If Tesla loses consumer confidence would be a shame. Interesting balance between maintaining existing product vs building new products. I am waiting until Tesla is more reliable before purchasing

What do you think is fair p/e? High share price is reflective as to the eAse that Tesla has raised capital. The trend is still very positive on increased revenue. Would be interested to know % of Tesla spend that didn’t go towards current prodcucts.

Didn’t realize how agressive expansion was. Tesla seems like it has not exceeded its ability to repay debt but is taking increasing risks despite making electric car market viable.

Building a semi prototype I guess is different than buying supercapacitator company for limitless recharge (prius style super capacitor battery to augment lithium ion power source) and building factories to actually build thousands of vehicles and now their batteries (Panasonic might lose monopoly)

Integrated battery manufacture alongside vehicles/power users could be next step towards decreased costs.

You missed the point. The article shows the reality that direct costs to consumer would have resulted in fewer auto sales. Instead we have sprawl and more cars than children.

I am impressed with the good title. Article speaks to unspoken history of purposefully hidden transportation costs that promote car sales and urban sprawl to this day. Bring back the electric streetcar

If only we could use approval voting to vote for a new voting system. Free elections are not always fair.
