That's clear to see.

They already have their own tech that is superior in a more affordable and well rounded package. Tesla literally has done nothing of value.
GM built the original production electric car. They cut manuf because they were selling each one at an incredible loss. Musk being an arrogant idiot thought he could do better and will now go bankrupt for it.

He's not an engineer. Doesn't have an engineering degree. He has no expertise in anything he's involved in. He reads pop sci, hypes it up, hires people who are capable, treats them like shit, mismanages the finances and eventually runs it in the ground.

Established car companies run on razor thin margins. Car manuf is a tough business. The idea that this idiot could enter, scale, and sustain is laughable and just goes to show how little respect or understanding he has for car manuf. It will cost him and all the idiots who are currently holding the stock.

Brainlets love this walking disaster because it gives them hope they too can one day be a charlatan tycoon.

He claims it's because the industry is rigged, for example in some areas he was blocked from selling cars directly as opposed to through a dealership.

> He claims it's because the industry is rigged, for example in some areas he was blocked from selling cars directly as opposed to through a dealership.
Everything that gets in this brainlet's way is a rigging. GM produced electric vehicles for over a decade before this moron came on the scene. He didn't even produce the roadster. He bought two companies that already did all of the hard engineering work and formed tesla w/ his branding. GM didn't end production because of some idiotic conspiracy theory w/ big oil like musk claimed. They ended production because they were losing money big time on each car because the battery packs weren't affordable yet. In comes this sack of shit used car salesman amping up brain dead liberals in California to back his pipe dream. Think about the share idiocy behind thinking you can beat multiple established companies with established supply chains at developing something as complex as a vehicle.

Not only does this idiot have zero engineering credentials but he was fired from paypal for technical and financial incompetence. Meanwhile, he's manage to fool a mass of rubes who are now coming to realize he is still the same arrogant, incompetent, and fiscally retarded pleb that got ejected from paypal before he sunk it.

The coming bankruptcies are going to a breath of fresh air for this glorified stain on tech.

I fucking hate when you say "manuf."

What are you, gay or something?

What means this manuf? Is manuf a word? I don't know how to pronounce manuf. manuf manuf manuf

Why would he be an engineer or hold an engineering degree? Tesla employs over 1000 engineers. He is the CEO. He could be the most genius engineer of all time and it would have little to no bearing on success of the company.

But he once claimed in an interview that when he comes to work, most of the actual work he personally does is technical, not business or management related.

Sorry, he has absolutely zero talent beyond fluffing brainlets by yourself.

Elon took a vacation/late honeymoon/fundraising trip to Australia.
Meanwhile, Max Levchin and Peter Thiel (Confinity cofounders) decided, along with the board, to remove Elon by pulling a "he is deemed incompetent" stunt because Elon supposedly wanted to change technology from Linux to Windows (which was a much better platform at that time) and also did not do much to address the fraud issue. Roloef Botha (CFO) said that the company would not have lasted 6 more months with Elon at its helm.
So while Elon was on a flight, they removed him as CEO, and installed Peter Thiel.

Brilliant in what sense? You mistake the fact that the average person is a gullible idiot for genius on his part. Many people like the idea that a brainlet w/ no competency, skill, or business sense can become a billionaire it's called vicarious projection. He's as brilliant as a box of rocks

Why would a strategically important company ever be folded up? Seems you don't understand the 'too big to fail' paradigm.
Ford : 2.4 million cars sold in 2017
GM : 10 million cars sold 2017
Tesla : ~75,000
lol
> GM has 100 billion in debt
GM revenue 2017 145.6 billion USD
Tesla revenue 2017 : $3.3 billion
So, tesla has 10 billion in debt and far less assets compared to GM's 100 billion. GM has 10x tesla's debt but 48x its revenue. You're making this too easy

Good ol' Musk re-inventing the wheel and claiming he's done something someone else already did, and discontinued because it was unprofitable.

You brainlets got any more replies for me?

Vehicle manufacturing is a cut throat, high risk, high capex, and low margin business. The same fate will hit Tesla except they aren't established enough to ride it out. I'm sure musk at this point will claim it wasn't all for not and wasn't a shame because he got the world to adopt EVs.

Except, GM and Toyota already did this in he 90s and early 2000s :

Not sure why you bought a GM car brainlet. There are tons of other auto manufacturers with way better quality/value. You being a brainlet though means you didn't go for better quality/value sort of like the Tesla Model S owners that rage 24/7 online about how tires are falling off, car is setting on fire, or the 1000 other amateur hour defects the car has makes them second guess their $70k purchase.

the only area where it is debatable is that its 7 inches shorter than an s-class which is petty at best

It is a full size sedan

I don't buy affordable cars, i buy luxury like i buy high end computer hardware because its a better product that lasts longer

>I'm too cheap to hire people and now it's backfiring

He probably has to make technical decisions that don't need specialists. Like projecting annual rocket fuel usage or finding a suitable ship to transport a stage. Executives do this.

Faggot people like you don’t want innovation, he’s making more moves than you. Just sitting in your room all alone you lost cause of a virgin. Pimple faced suicide watch cuck.

Imagine being this mad.

You can't /thread yourself, newfag.

Not mad cuck, just wanted you to feel worthless because musk is at least trying while all of you sniff away at your balls

I'd imagine resorts, casinos and airlines would have way bigger margins.

He just means he needs more grant money so he can make rockets with less technology. He's planning on using trebuchets to put monkeys, and hopefully people eventually, into space.
