Several other EV companies have tried and failed to do that. They had good ideas - but they have struggled to bring their ideas to market. Ever hear of Fisker or Nikola? Those are EV companies that flunked the marketable product test. And thats what makes Musk different. His shit succeeds. And thats simple truth.
Doesnt mean you have to like him.
He's a con man.
He's been promising totally autonomous cars in the next six months - for about five years now. His revolutionary tunnel digging Boring machines? In some cases it's a Chinese sewer digging rig. And he received millions in California tax credits for secretly charging batteries with diesel generators. At least 60% of his company's value was pure helium, powered by his marks who believed all of it.
I hope you weren't one of them.
And today Elon promised that he wouldn't sell any more Tesla stock for at least 18 months. You gotta know he's lying about that too.
