1. Tesla has sold ~2.5-3M cars since 2017 in the US. There’s more than 200M cars on the road in the country. Ford has sold more F series trucks in the last 4 years than Teslas have been sold ever. 2. The only reason Model Y is the best selling car in the world is because 3/4 of the sales come from the US and Tesla only sells one model of SUV. Other brands sell many different variants and multiple models in the same category across the world. 3. Teslas are not at all competitive in other markets. BYD is eating their lunch. 4-6. Yes, but the global market for space launches is projected to barely touch $30B by 2030. Global competition for this market is only getting fiercer with multiple US startups, India, China and more recently France. Now let’s talk about the failures. 1. Nueralink 2. FSD 3. Roadster 4. Cybertruck 5. Hyperloop 6. $2T in Doge cuts 7. Robotaxi 8. Starship 9. Tesla Semi 10. 4680 battery 11. Boring company tunnels 12. Bots that were going to disappear on Twitter The list is very long when you actually include all the data points. | ||||||||

Neuralink appears to be working, albeit slowly--as should be expected, because the space is hard. Cybertruck shipped and is commonly seen all over my city, so "failed" seems to be incorrect. Starship...works? Again, the space is hard. The tunnels...are dug? I'm not a Musk fanboy but you're just making a bad case. | ||||||||
