If Tesla falls apart tomorrow, it's not going to stop progress. Someone would probably buy the carcass and keep things going. Even if not, the established players are gonna keep the game going. Especially now that China is committed to EV's in the future.

The company will keep going for sure.
If Musk implodes himself, investors will put someone far more boring in charge and innovation will slow down, IMO, riding the wave of the plans already in motion. Maybe this brings Tesla out of a niche product, or maybe it condemns them to that corner forever, who knows. The market is fickle.

Sounds, to me, like Elon is the perfect candidate to be our next president.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

I love Singer but I think they are clearly out of their mind here. The car is beautiful and the engine is something from another planet, but for $1.8 million? No thanks.

It was a commission, but they plan to allocate 75 more.

Musk calling someone a pedo
Musk calling someone's boss who criticized the company and threatened to sue
He's basically silicon Trump right now. I bet he gets removed by the adults in the room by the end of the year if this keeps up.

Yeah he has really gone off the deep end on social media in the last 2 weeks. I think he needs a social media timeout.

I have a little bit of a rub near lock but if you are turned to lock on a track there are other problems already...
So...is Chevy building an NSX, but right? And calling it a Corvette?
