Hi win, I try not to be a troll on anything, but after spending my entire youth and career in the car business I find I'm having fun agreeing with your derogatory views on TSLA. Perhaps I'm maturing. NAH! I try to imagine the look on your face when you post regarding TSLA. Sort of like that meany kicking a cripple and smiling about it. At least that's what I see in my mirror when I agree with you . LMAO, up after hours after the cult leader assured them he's serious about profitability. I heard that pablum my entire career working for GM as they overpriced product, lost market share and went BK. sigh Me thinks he needs the Saudi sovereign fund to make TSLA's in the desert. Wonder what those car explosions look like under a fig tree after 130 degrees all day? I'm being bad, scuze me. Probly change the name to OASIS MOTORS. g All that overhead, factory direct (supposedly no overhead - WRONG no one can do it cheaper than the local dealer in his neighborhood), repair centers, only one plant in the most expensive state in the country. Government rebates expiring and old models costing 100K - its Toast time. I sure wish they'd shut me up and hit new highs. I don't short, but I'd sure sell a call or two. Like ole Bunker Hunt said "a half billion here and a half billion there - pretty soon you're talkin serious money" Bob Bob

Thanks. I'll probably take some more profits soon as we're getting close to a first target. It would be nice to have done so if there is a decline but I think "they" worked too damn hard to get the XMas decline we got (hell, I even bought shares for my GF's account at $142.... I'll never hear the end of it if it loses money for her...) before the 5G story is better known.... could see $300s on the next run. Hard to believe you can get one of the best run growth companies on the planet for a PE of 11.5... some idiots have an average of -2% EPS growth now! When they get that back over 20% we'll know it is time to take more profits for the next fishing trip. LOL

I complimented the "Tesla Twins" with new M3s side by side yesterday after yoga. The gal who offered to "cup me like Michael Phelps got for one of his injuries"..... tried to convince me to trade in my X3 for one. I tried to explain that I'd need to drive 5 to 10 x a year more to break even on carbon footprint since I only use that car for around town... 19,500 miles in 8 yrs. AND since I don't drive much, I want a car company that will be in business for the next 20 years.... I didn't have the heart to tell her my sore groin muscle got better on its own after our Sunday instructor told me how she had the same problem when she increased her running miles and asked if I did the same... I had just increased my fast walking and was pushing too hard with the high leg on the crowned streets with no sidewalks..... Anyway.... it is interesting the nonsense some use to buy a car isn't that different than all the political, economic and religious nonsense they believe. You just have to keep quiet on what is nonsense and what is "truth." I could buy one if they become a viable business AND make a van that drives me to windsurf with my gear safely inside while I sit in the back watching TV or working.
