The time frame on the Semi has always been guidance from Tesla. Not me. You still cannot get that through your shell I see.

I have always stated as my opinion, I would expect some delays.

Now tell us about that BK that was filed last year due to the crushing debt you kept talking about.
Or is Elon still in jail from the SEC complaint you and Ben kept talking about?
Where are all your buddies from SA? Need to get some of that humor posted again.

Tusk states Tesla single digits away from death.

Would you look at that Time. Single digits away from death.

Anyhoo, so when do "YOU" say the Semi is coming out. Because "YOU" said there would be a few running around at the end of last year. Where are they?

And I am thinking less time, less money, less weight than another bracket with a foam insert.

Have read many related stories and ZERO failures.

Maybe the Turtle can find a fail.

I'm still trying to figure out when the "Semi" is coming out. Time, you said at the end of last year. Now it's at the end of this year. Are you now going to say the end of next year? Just when Time?

And what about those 1 million robotaxies? Tusk said the end of this year 1 million robotaxies. Man, he better hurry up. Do you know when Time? I could use another laugh! [emoticon]

Tusk still hasn’t developed a corporate mindset for quality and seemingly does not understand that the chain is only as strong as the weakest link

Stacked plate inter coolers of that many plates needs to have a frame to transfer vibration forces away from the first plate

Wonder how they discovered this was a needed band aide...assume failures out there, as they use their customers as test dummies...
