Inevitably someone always tries to argue that EVs consume more fossil fuels & are more toxic to the environment because of batteries (which apparently can electrocute you in the ocean if it’s a choice between a shark or sinking in a battery operated boat, 🤣). But, 1) this argument has already been debunked multiple times over. And, 2) what’s the counter-argument? Stick with gas cars and not work on iterating towards sustainable energy solutions for EVs? Or worse, hybrids where you have to maintain and fuel two systems? Or even hydrogen cars where you do more harm to the environment to produce the fuel and it costs more to make a reality vs just sticking with gas cars? Seriously, why would you not support sustainable energy transportation and help it become more affordable over time? The world still needs oil for many things, but if I were big oil, it would be worth the investment to really go big on sustainable energy, else you risk missing the boat. Then you’d really be choosing the shark.

Am I shocked that this happened at Tesla? Not in the least. Fueled by the most unprincipled leader in all of American business, a person who has regularly thumbed his nose at laws, restrictions and safeguards designed to rein in technology and/or bad behavior, we’re talking about a company that has functioned as a corporate outlaw from the very beginning. The fact that this company has consistently promoted its “Full Self Driving” option when, in fact, it didn’t even approach the capabilities promised, is unacceptable. And the fact that they charged $10,000 for it is even worse. But the most egregious thing this company did was to enlist its owners – some of whom were unwitting participants – into doing so-called “beta” testing of the fundamentally unproven option out in the real world. And it is beyond unconscionable. This is no laughing matter, either. Because whether blind consumer belief in St. Elon’s Big Lie about “FSD” or out of sheer personal stupidity and/or irresponsibility, people actually died while engaging this technology. There’s a reason Tesla is now under the gun from NHTSA for this despicable behavior, and as I have stated before, I expect the company to pay a heavy price – running into the billions of dollars – for operating with the integrity of a scofflaw.   THE AUTOEXTREMIST.COM YEAR IN REVIEW

So simple yet so powerful.

On this episode of Elon, Inc., we examine how a small group of Scandinavian mechanics are causing big labor trouble for Tesla.

Just when all of North America is finally trending towards the NACS (Tesla) adapter, Musk attempts to pull the rug out from under the entire deal. Clearly there’s more to the story. If it’s bottom line driven, the new partnerships will bring Tesla more money. So we’re doubting it’s purely about the bottom line. If we’re talking about (re)focusing on reliability of the dispensers, shifting existing employees to temporarily focus on that would have made more sense, to a layman. We’ve seen Musk chop headcount over and over, so this move is while puzzling it is not a complete surprise. All we do know is the story will eventually become more transparent sooner or later. The flipside of this coin is that all of the other vendors will enjoy the benefit of experienced folks from the Tesla charging unit to enhance their own EV charging rollouts. Without question, the hiring sharks are about to go into a feeding frenzy. This could be the push to enhance rollout timeframes of other charging platforms, in North America. Although its a tough time for all of us, there are thousands more extended families that are in limbo tonight. As always, let’s rally and unify over these hardships. And so, we wait.

Shared my perspective and some BloombergNEF stats yesterday in the lead up to the Tesla earnings report for the first quarter of 2024 on Bloomberg TV. We talked about how Tesla can reach more buyers in order to achieve growth. This conversation came before the earnings call, which touched on new Tesla models coming at the end of 2024 and start of 2025, but offered few concrete details. https://lnkd.in/eCZYWVJ2

Trump 2024 Fans on Tesla Cybertruck As the 2024 presidential election approaches, former President Donald Trump remains a highly influential and polarizing figure in American politics. Running as the Republican candidate against Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump continues to inspire a fervent following. This article explores the unique ways Trump supporters express their enthusiasm, particularly through the use of their vehicles, and delves into the broader implications of this support. The Rise of “Trump 2024” Car Stickers One of the most visible forms of support for Trump is the proliferation of “Trump 2024” stickers adorning cars across the country. These stickers, often placed on license plates and bumpers, serve as a mobile declaration of political allegiance. They represent more than just a preference for a candidate; they symbolize a deep-rooted ideological commitment that resonates with nearly half of the American population. The Tesla Cybertruck: A New Icon for Trump Supporters Among the vehicles displaying these stickers, the Tesla Cybertruck stands out as a particularly striking example. Priced at a minimum of $85,000, the Cybertruck is not just a mode of transportation but a statement of wealth and technological advancement. In New Jersey, one such Cybertruck owner proudly showcases their support for Trump, blending cutting-edge technology with political fervor. Elon Musk’s Influence The connection between the Tesla Cybertruck and Trump support is further underscored by the relationship between Trump and Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla. Musk, known for his innovation and entrepreneurial spirit, has publicly expressed his support for Trump. Despite Trump’s pledge to end government subsidies for electric vehicles if re-elected, Musk’s backing of Trump suggests a belief that this policy shift could ultimately benefit local electric car manufacturers and their customers. The Broader Implications The display of “Trump 2024” stickers on vehicles like the Tesla Cybertruck is more than a mere political statement; it reflects broader social and economic trends. These include: 1. Political Polarization: The stickers highlight the deep political divide in the United States, with strong allegiances to both major parties. 2. Economic Affluence: The choice of high-end vehicles like the Cybertruck indicates that Trump’s support base includes affluent individuals who are willing to invest in both technology and political expression. 3. Technological Integration: The integration of political support with cutting-edge technology exemplifies how modern politics and innovation are intertwined. #Trump2024 #TeslaCybertruck #ElonMusk #PoliticalSupport #Election2024 #AmericanPolitics #PoliticalExpression #Innovation #Affluence #usa #bricktownship #tomsrivernj #newjersey #jerseyshore #democrats #republicans #news Trump 2024 Fans on Tesla Cybertruck https://lnkd.in/ehRYvWEU
