Love your videos!
Thanks for your update
Awesome videos! I am obsessed with Tesla so to have someone that gives all the latest Tesla news is awesome!
Quit having children.
@@justbecause9645 ?
Dodge says their 800 HP challenger will do a quarter mile in 9.9 (maybe it's less I don't really remember) but I only saw one do it in 9.9 even with the skinny front tyres and special fuel, even on a very sticky surface you can't get a close time to what the manufacturer claims, but with Tesla I have seen some 9.2X on the street and a 9.4 is easily achievable on any surface, I have seen a lot of 2.1 sec 0-60 on the street (1.99sec with 1 foot rollout) most brans advertise the best numbers they can get, and Tesla is one of them but the plaid model S gets very close to the claimed numbers even on the street unlike most others brands that are like dodge ( this does not apply to brands like Porsche because they always do better in real life than the claimed numbers 😂).
Yep. In fact most ICE cars require massive amounts of skill to get their sub 3 second times.
@@ernestbethel2035 you can see videos of Ferraris losing control in like 1 second, you don't see that a lot with EVs because the power curve is a lot more "predictable"
Another way to see this is Tesla proves it can be done and other the. Try it
Its a RWD car, it simply cant put the power down unless it transformed into a real non street legal dragster. Look at all the built GTRs out there, the fastest one has done the 1/4 mile in 6.58 seconds. The fastest EVs are still in the 8s, and those are millions of dollars. The plaid is impressive setting low 9s for a production car, and I'm sure the roadster will hang in the 8s when its out.
@@Malinkadink the fastest EVs can be on the road, the fastest ice are SUPER UNSAFE and go to track on a truck, I don't give a fuck about how fast an ice car is if it can't even drive on the street. I just saw a video of cars losing control after heavy acceleration, Ferraris, Dodge, McLaren and much much more, the ice cars power curve is less predictable when compared to a ev. Why do think the most HP on a ice car for now is 1500 HP stock from the factory? Because you can't get it higher in a safe and reliable way, EVs are coming out with 2000 hp from the factory. Yes there are ice cars with 2000 HP but they blow up gearboxes all day and can't even drive on the street because they are to unsafe or even illegal (just check carwow drag races and see how many times a tuned 1000+ HP ice car as broken down). Just accept the physics, I have studied a lot about this because I am a mechanical engineer student.
Elon hit the nail on the head in regards to 3rd party dealerships. We had a terrible experience leasing our 2019 Kia Niro EV because they had tacked on $5,000 to the MSRP and it took about 2 hours of haggling to get it removed. Then the finance manager sped us through doc signing like we were ugly, little gnats bothering him whenever we asked a question. Never again. We love the Niro EV and it convinced us we will never go back to an ICE vehicle or ever go through a 3rd party dealership again. We ordered our Model 3 SR+ 4 weeks ago and look forward to taking delivery in January 2022. Our lease on our Niro EV ends in April so we may push delivery to February 2022 but I have a feeling we'll take delivery sooner rather than later. We've been following Tesla since 2013 and we're not Tesla fan boys but I can't express the excitement we're feeling knowing our next EV will be a Model 3.
WHY are you wasting our time? We care about TESLA and our investment i n Tesla stock.
Even with FSD I'd still want a steering wheel.
I want a wheel. No question. I like resting hand on top. 1 hand driving. Etc
@@thelastninja4825 nope, it is very real. Just look at the videos of the betas on TH-cam. It works very well and with a few more updates it will be almost perfect.
@@thelastninja4825 Since you're not an engineer. You don't know what you're talking about. Obviously you don't listen to engineers. Ford employee or what?
@@couchpotatoes5158 Those beta videos are terrifying lol. It is not even close to level 5, hence why all state DMV's classify it as level 2.
@@jackfogg7911 The videos are actually not terrifying, they are very impressiveness. Also, full self driving better 10 is at level 3/4 not two you’re thinking of standard auto pilot
I actually love that render of the $25000 Tesla at 5:45
We got our M3 SR today. Absolutely beautiful with the white interior. Cheaper than the Leaf. Thanks Ryan for the 1000 miles of Super Charging!
Congratulations Steve, this is a BIG deal!!
What country do you live in Steve?
How is it cheaper than the Nissan Leaf? My understanding is that the Leaf is usually cheaper than the SR in most jurisdictions.
@@Nicholas.T you beat me to it.
I'm in UK and have same question.
I've driven no Tesla's but tried two Peugeots, new leaf, i3 and a Kia E-Niro BEV. Kia best so far based on empirical evidence (I do a lot of miles on many classes of vehicles for provenance of that endorsement).
The Peugeot guy said there's a queue for test drives for their BEV's which are very nice. However experience with 6 recalls in three years on a Citroën Despatch van (ice) puts me off French though.
don't really think the $25K price tag for next gen can cover the FSD yet IMO.. the base price for that car will be $35K instead...
i hope it comes with steering wheel and 25k base without self driving
@@manuelight me too. Don't really like to own a car that can't be driven.....at least need that option.
@@mnew213 Especially if you live in snow country.
Nobody seems to be including gov't rebates on the $25k model. A sale price of $35k with FSD and a $10k rebate puts an incredible ride in millions of drivers' driveways.
@@lent6114 Great point!! If timing is right...
Ordered a Model 3 LR in the end of July in Germany, it said delivery is expected November, now it says December.
Love your vids!
I ordered my model 3 performance a week ago eta delivery 14th 30th this month
I wish ANC was standard on all Teslas. It would be much easier to settle on one and road noise would be a thing of past.
Action Packed video. Rivan, App iCAR, Tesla car push. Steering wheels, Good stuff
Yesss, 2021 Model S audio system is the best, so insane. Got an older MS and M3 on loaner since getting the refresh a couple of times and they're crud compared. V cool about the new update, small tweak making it even better! Really cool that our cars can get better and better over time.
@@carholic-sz3qv Well matey it’s the best Tesla audio system to date which was my point
Great video thank you. Do you have any video about Tesla app update?
DAERIK HAS ONE.
@@MICHGO1 Daerik?
Ryan, you make very good videos, well scripted with consistently interesting content. Keep up the good work!
Hi Ryan,
I understand that you’ll be picking up the new Tesla Plaid model S today, September 7, 2021!
I’m looking forward to meeting and congratulating you you personally.
Forgetting about the other manufacturers have dealerships especially with the US based ones that have a loophole that manufacturer is required to offload the vehicles to the dealerships, and then the manufacturer can classify those vehicles as “sales”, since it’s off the manufacturer books.
The $25k vehicle should be called Q for the TSLAQ.
It will probably be M as in S E X Y. M(otherf____________)
I’m soo dispappointex! My Tesla was due for delivery September 15-30, 2021. Now it’s delayed until October 13 thru Nov 3. What do I do about this!!!! I’m so over this. My friend and I bought a Tesla days apart. She already got hers and I’m still waiting!!!!!
i went ahead & bought the S dual motor long range till my tri motor fsd cyber truck get here.
Love from Slovenia 🇸🇮 ⚡️ 🚘!¡!¡
I have had my Model S LR (Silver)/White/19 since March and it went from 10-14 weeks, to June, to Aug, to Nov 13-Dec 2, to Dec 6-23, now it says Oct 13-Nov 2. I hope this is the last change of est delivery date. Other car manufacturers have similar delays. But as a person who is really excited about the Model S, I just want to get it already.
update,we love your show & love spacex & we just got our S dual motor fsd while the tri/4? motor fsd cybertruck gets here. i'm all in TSLA & i love all Elon Musk does & will keep doing..we've drove from California to Boca Chica to see the Star Ship & it was so awesome to see it getting built in person!! we have LOTS of SOLAR & backup battery system to charge them both
Are official Rivian EPA mileage figures with or without a load? And how much would a heavy load effect range?
Who cares about rivian or any other car? We concentrate on our investment i. Tesla shares.
Tesla absolutely needs to get their priorities straight with the 25K model, cause it's what will keep it winning the market, especially the European one.
Beginning 2022 - Full implementation of Dojo
Mid 2022 - cybertruck
Beginning 2023 semi - roadster
End 2023 25k model.
End 2024 fully functional Robo Taxis
End 2025 - Tesla Bot with full AI capabilities
Lot of cool info
Tablets did not exist at all before the iPad!
Waiting for:
Model B
Model 1
Model T
Model C and
Model H!
Haha!
Next will be Model A.
It makes S3XY CAR.
It is actually an EU incentive, to create battery factories in Europe and not leave the business to China and Korea etc. I guess they've learnt from the actual chipshortage situation
Just add a joystick with with buttons as a backup to FSD.
No, the entire point is that the delivery issues WILL end this month. After this, Giga Berlin will take care of most of the European deliveries and Shanghai will take care of China. Austin will pick up any slack in the US if Fremont needs to ship some cars someplace outside of America. Deliveries will be continuous everywhere, allowing for better staffing optimization and faster fulfillment of orders on average.
And it'll look better in the accounts with less inventory, less expenditure and more income.
Good: Better background now!
Is that a new background
How do you tell your car where it should park with no steering wheel?
RETHINK WHAT YOU JUST WROTE.
IF THE CAR IS DRIVING ITSELF THERE'S NO NEED FOR A WHEEL.
@@MICHGO1 how does the car know where I want to park. How do I drive on a walkway (we have walkways where it is allowed to drive in front of your door for loading and unloading)
Weldone bruh
The difference between an Apple car and an Apple ipad/ipod/iphone is that when those were released there was no other "Apple like" company in any of those industries. By Apple like I mean companies with a devoted "fanatical" fan base. The automotive industry DOES already have a company with rabid fans. Tesla. Apple also had Steve Jobs at the helm for all of those products and Tim Cook is no Jobs. How many of you can name the CEO of any other car company? How about an MP3 player CEO? Blackberry (RIM) CEO? Sony? Samsung? Nokia? Exactly.
I love Tesla!
25,000 $ car with 50,000$ fsd as elon said ?? idk
10 thousand dollar fsd and they're working to make it free in next few years
Love you all godbless
yo dude, I have that same shirt
11:00 Yeh, Apple may have won on other aspects like phones, tabs, and all that but their competition is slow to move. In this case against Tesla would be a harder one. Yes, maybe they can get on top but maybe just the second place though cuz Tesla is not the same, they innovate fast. Faster than they can catch up.
Yes battery supply is essential but with raw materials there will be a shortage in the next few years, even benchmark minerals intelligence forecast a shortage by 2023* can you shed some more awareness on the upstream raw materials supply? Mines take ~5-7 years for any 1 mine to come online…
They already have.
Love the new thumbnails, I wasn’t really a fan of a blue stripe with white letters
You are saying that, like a billion would a lot of money for a big car company. Volkswagen group makes anything between 10-15 billion euros PROFIT every year.

who wants an upmarked car from apple? just for the name
That's Apple for ya!
Tesla is still so underrated!!! 💥🚀😎
tesla plaid channel did a 9.06 on 1/4 mile with plaid model S
As always a great video!
Modified
@@Delitor That car is box stock as it came from the factory.
@@iowa_don it wasnt. The interior was stripped
@@Delitor I watch all of his videos, the interior isn't stripped on either of his TWO Plaids. He MIGHT strip the interior on the second Plaid when he installs a roll cage but that has not happened yet. Actually Niklas B is incorrect. He has run a 6.04 @ 121.36 in the 1/8th mile but his fastest (mostly they won't let him run all out per the NHRA without a cage) is 9.434 @ 149.38 in the 1/4 mile (so far).
If these car companies come out in 2025 it's too late .Tesla will clean their clocks... All three Mega Factories will be in Full Blown Mode and prolly opening up another 2-3 more Factories....
Not sure how you can roll out a 25k car without a steering wheel or pedal. Does that mean FSD (10k) will be included with the car? Is that what Elon is hinting at?
They probably wouldn't sell that Model. They would use it for their own Robotaxi.
@@1flash3571 then why is there a 25k price tag? They gonna sell it to themselves? Lol but yea I hear yah. Maybe they will just robotaxi it and reduce congestion of cars. Sounds great to me
it should be a $35K instead with FSD included. He also promised robotaxi in 2020, over-promised as always..
I don't understand why I own a car but can't drive it. then just ride the robotaxi..
@@AudiTTQuattro2003 we’re saying it has to be included as that would not be a 25k car if you had to pay for FSD.
@@mnew213 Sounds like you're very confused, why would you buy a car you can't drive? clearly that's not the car for you.
Find me a car on the road that doesn't use the best conditions, lucky acceleration, right tail wind numbers for their cars acceleration.
Even if you hate tesla, the new model s is a masterpiece.
Seriously?
@@HDHQDIRECT yea
@@HDHQDIRECT Yes seriously.
I'm still not getting into a car that don't have a steering wheel >:\
Wait till he gets rid of seats and you have to stand....
OK. Is anyone going to make you do that?
@@jacka7211 At this time no... 10years from now that may be a thing... I hope it never happens at all... I'd loved to get an E.V. but it must have a steering wheel and petals.
A Tesla employee told me that I need to wait until the last moment to secure my financing since dates jump around so much. While I don't mind the wait, pre-approvals are only good for so long and in order to not mess with my FICO score too much, I basically have everything else on pause and keeping a close eye on my credit reports in case an error is reported and I have to fight that (I learned this the hard way about a decade ago). I'm basically on the edge between good and great credit, but I'm penalized for not having lots of credit accounts open and maintaining balances (I don't need too). I'm actually a bad debtor since I don't need debt except for my mortgage and stupid expensive cars.
Yep. Had to have my credit run a second time since my offer expired. It sucked, but I knew it might happen so I kept card balances down and did the same thing so as to keep my credit in the excellent range. Wait until your delivery date is a month out, then apply. The offers are good for 60 days so even with another small delay you’ll be fine.
@@audreymcneal I was thinking that, but I might do two weeks until delivery. I want enough time in case I need to shop the loan or make other arrangements but plenty of room for Elon time.
25k is still not "affordable" for most people imo.
Lol they should make a gigafactory on Australia
The world market for EVs may grow 15x to 20x this decade from today's sales level. It isn't really a question of whether an Apple car could make a dent in Tesla sales or Tesla growth. Elon will welcome them as a new partner in replacing as many ICE cars as possible, as rapidly as possible. There is more than enough room for both companies.
I am invested in TSLA, AAPL and BYD and have no concern about any of them interfering with the others' growth anytime in the next 5 or 6 years. As EVs approach market maturity, the competition will cease to be ICE, and the story will change.
Dodge Charger Hellcat has a 0-60 of 3.5 seconds. You can't get that with stock tires on the road. You need special circumstances. Expensive tires and a prepared track. Did Edmonds also say take the claims of Dodge with a grain of salt? Or did they just flat out say Dodge lied to you? I notice a pattern. Tesla does it exactly like the Legacy Auto and gets knocked for using industry standard testing. The same testing they have used for the last 50 years.... Take Edmunds reports with a grain of salt folks.
If Tesla wants to limit people from buying the 25 grand car, getting rid of the steering wheel would make people not want one. People I believe are going to want to get used to a car driving itself first before they stop needing the steering wheel.
Elon is a master of osborne. They will sack the Model 2 until it comes out to not detract a bit from Model 3 and Model Y.
God these 25k car renders look so ugly 😂
That would be easily remedied if Tesla actually released a prototype of the proposed vehicle.
THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME GIMMICKS WE SEE ON NEARLY EVERY OTHER CAR. TESLA GOES FOR CLASSIC AUTO DESIGN.
Great News! You buy something else. I get my $25K Tesla sooner. All happy.
I can't wait for the Apple car: stylish,trendy and overpriced by 50%.
You forgot one of the zeros.
Every vehicle requires specific conditions to hit the 0-60mph.... this is just them being douchenozzles to Tesla..
Agreed. Drag times did 10 quarter mile runs in a row at 9.2 - 9.3 and the consistency from run to run was insane. Even Motor Trend (usually bashing Tesla) said it's quarter mile runs were nothing short of "robotic" they were so spot on. Tesla could cure cancer and drive on water and the media would bitch that the tires only come in black rubber.
someone explain how Rivian's extremely high energy consumption is justified. would not help charging time
@@carholic-sz3qv model x is 100kWh for 360mi, while R1T is 135kWh for 310mi. Considering that large battery might one day occupy a supercharger idk...
Could care less about rivian or any other car. I care about my investment in Tesla shares.
Apple also had Steve Jobs.
Elon a genuine genius. Jobs was only smart.
Surely he means trillion one billion isn’t a lot when it comes to this big companys
The Rivian is 7000 pounds so when you add 4 beaffy adults their truck bed can only accept a few hundred pounds. The Cyber truck will be about 5000 pounds so it can carry a few thousand pound in its bed. Thus we see Tesla's advantage.
Sorry Robert, the Cybertruck at 5,000 pounds is pure speculation.
Tesla has NOT released any official specs for its weight, nor the actual capacity/size of the batteries (in kWhrs) for that matter! (Tesla has only released the mileage range of each version).
Rivian, on the other hand HAS released OFFICIAL specs for both these parameters.
You need to compare apples with apples.
The CyberTruck will not weigh a svelte 5000 pounds. Unless the battery pack is made out of air/helium.
@@Team_Trade_Down It's supposed to weigh as much as a Ford F150 and have a payload of 4500 pounds. Regardless, the fact that the Rivian is 7000 pounds means it won't be competitive as a truck.
@@robertfrancis979 NONE of the EV trucks will be light. Batteries have mass. Trucks have mass. 6500-7000lbs seems reasonable for the Lightning and Rivian. And probably the Cybertruck. The Hummer is a portly 9000 lbs. If someone manages to build a truck, with a range greater than 300 miles, that weighs less than 6000lbs, it will be an engineering miracle.
Omg so much ads from you….
Finally stopped using *MODEL 2* right? the cheaper version will not likely be called this
people who cant make it to tesla work at apple.
Eeeeeh
Tesla 🤩🚀
Wren wants to help reduce my carbon footprint? But how will people of the future know I was here?
I just got an email from Apple saying to join them for a special even stream on September 14th.
Who cares?
Geez, you guys are all about being jerks on the internet 🙄. He was literally talking about the Apple car rumors, and as I was watching the video, I get an email about an Apple special event. I don't care, I love my Tesla and will likely never own an Apple car if it ever becomes a thing. But I found the timing interesting.
FDS will drop next quarter, and it will continue to be until 2024.
Recently "Tailosive EV" pointed out that if the $25k Model 2 (or whatever Tesla names it) does not include driver controls, then it must include FSD which by then will be a $10k-$12k line item. How will Tesla build a car for a net hardware 'price' of $13k-$15k? As he pointed out, this seems to imply that the Model 2 will be exclusively for Tesla-owned robo-taxis and not really intended for the consumer market. It doesn't seem they could have it both ways. Thoughts??
Also, I think Toyota will try to make Apple create a Hybrid. What a waste. But whatever (or if ever) Apple puts their brand on, it'll for sure have a killer sound system!
Don’t you think a hybrid will be unacceptable for Apple?
All Model 3 cars already come with all the FSD hardware whether you buy FSD for $10000 or not. With the elimination of the radar with the recent change the hardware cost has gone down even further for FSD. $10000 price tag for FSD is mostly for software. So the $25000 car with FSD doesn't have to be a $15K car. It can be a $23000 or $24500 car. People who have bought FSD and who are buying FSD for $7000 - $10000 are paying for all of FSD development. Only Tesla knows whether they have recouped the RnD money for FSD or not.
@@mdf1978 Let me apologize for my poorly executed attempt at sarcasm. I think you're right, or at least I would hope you are. Apple and Toyota are the most confusing bedfellows in my mind. Toyota is as entrenched in the past as Apple is pointed toward the future. Mr Toy-Yoda is so tightly wedded and in love with his ICE-tech bride that he won't listen to all the doctors who are telling him that she's terminally ill. In his deluded state he's turning to his Hybrid-tech daughter for comfort, but sadly she's saddled with the same genetic disease as her mother. It's either that or he's lying through his hat and they're truly on the verge of having solid state batteries. Yeah right...
Sandy Munro recently showed us the Kia Niro. He didn't like the one-size fits all engine compartment, but I think it's brilliant! Yes it would be best if they could drop all shackles to the past and start with a clean slate, but that's not realistic for legacy auto makers with tons of inventory and engineering prowess from the past. Yeah, it wasn't the most modern implementation, but I think there's a market for that kind of platform as a bridge to the future IF they can manufacture them cheaply enough. I think it's better than nothing, and it may get them out of paying regulatory credits.
The manufacturer I wonder most about but have heard the least is Honda. They've been an engine company since day one. They put their engines in lawnmowers, Indy cars, generators, motorcycles and automobiles. Is anyone as deeply entrenched in ICE? But if anyone can pull off the Niro model of transition I think it could be them.
@@r56mini I agree with all your stats and points. The point that I made so poorly was about customer perception. If as Elon seemed to indicate at battery day that a $25k auto was what the public was waiting for, I don't think it's really achievable without what a steering wheel implies.
I think the lack of a steering wheel requires FSD, and I would say, it kinda looks like they'll get it essentially for free if the price is really $25k. If the value of FSD is truly $10k or more, as they've tried to convince everybody who's bought it so far, how pissed are those who paid dearly for the capability going to view those who get it without paying extra in a car that costs somewhat around half of what they paid? Yes the existing customers of FSD have paid for the R&D with little to show for it. Will they be happy to whistle a happy tune when the next guys don't have to ante up?
Bottom line: How will Tesla justify putting an option that previous customers have paid so much for into a vehicle that will include it as essentially 'standard equipment'? Or maybe this means the inexpensive "Model 2" was never intended to be owned by customers. They'll be relegated to Robo-Taxis that Tesla owns, and the customers who were champing at the bit for an inexpensive, but high quality, BEV will be left hungry in the cold with only the GM Bolts and Huang Guang MINI EVs to increase their yearning.
I don’t see Apple getting into the space.
Is Tesla a software company or a car company? That's the trillion dollar question. I think Apple can step into the game late by embracing ultra luxury and using the car as a iphone accessory.
Or a solar company or a power grid company....All of the above and throw in Robo Taxis....Wow what a Company...
If Tesla even wants to start dreaming about beating Apple and Toyota they need to release and scale up the 25K model ASAP, cause that's the model that will establish securely Tesla as not only the electric market leader, but the car leader in general.
Otherwise Apple, with its incredibly marketing strategies and the enormous brand loyalty that it has built, coupled with Toyota's massive manufacturing capacity and quality will be really really hard to beat.
And eventually, Toyota will go to Tesla for instructions on how to design and build an electric car manufacturing factory - coz so far, nobody can do it like Tesla.
@@wrongtimeweeder1076 maybe Toyota can help Tesla figure out how to put a car together without panel gaps and defects..
@@HDHQDIRECT How many people were killed due to those panel gaps and defects in Teslas? Toyota's defective airbags have killed 29 people. Seventy one deaths in Toyota vehicles due to sudden unintended acceleration. I could really go on and on about how many people have been killed in Toyota vehicles due to defects... but that'd shut your brain down :(
I still don't get all the hype over an Apple car, and if I owned stock in the company, I'd be extremely concerned. Apple commands extremely high margins on software, and is willing to sacrifice that to enter the razor-thin margin world of auto production? The field that has bankrupted all but Ford and Tesla in the last 100 years of U.S. auto production? The business with insanely high capital expenditures? Nothing about that passes the sniff test to me. It sounds like fanboys being fanboys and wanting Apple to make everything. And, of course, entering the market in 2024 really means closer to 2026 or 2027 after they ramp production. The bulk of people will have switched over to an EV by then, and will be waiting another 5-10 years to buy another car. The market they are preparing to enter won't be around for them. It's not like a phone, where people justify buying a new one every year.
Climate crisis??
Grand Solar Minimum 😎
Apple Cars wow factor will be that they will be able to drive sideways. Calling it now.
Apple: all vehicles part sold separately
6:34 Apple who?
Apple could do well just because of the name. It does look as though old ICE are in trouble so there could be space for Apple in the market. By partnering with China/Japan though they risk having a 'not made in US' disadvantage
Apple is also designing revolutionary battery technology so that could help
Apple forgot about the Smart TV hopefully they don't forget about the Car....
Apple has never launched an innovative product without Steve Jobs. Any hope otherwise is naive.
Your right but they won’t stay on top if they don’t have any more revolutionary products so I guess they have to try.
Apple car lol. It's going to have you pay extra to put wheels, seats or airbag on cuz they"care about the planets" 😂😂😂
“The climate crisis “ lol
A lot of passive aggressive digs at Tesla in this video. As for apple being an innovating competitor, that left with Steve Jobs. I have to laugh at the idea of an apple semi autonomous car... they can't even get Siri or maps up to standards.
@@carholic-sz3qv "KID" Your powers of perception are crap. I don't know what your trying to clarify or rebut about my comment, so are you saying that Apple's Siri is good, or that apple still innovates. Because I didn't compare Tesla and Apples's security, so feel free to start your own post.
Looking forward to Apple failing and finding out you cant sell cars with the same insane overpriced marketing ploys that made them successful with phones. But hey perhaps people will finally stop comparing Tesla to Apple if they become a direct competitor.
Wait. We are NOT supposed to take Tesla seriously... but we ARE supposed to take Edmunds seriously? LOL Whenever I see a review by Edmunds, I put it on the back burner and look first to see if I can find a review from people who actually know something about cars! Stealing Carlos Lago from MT does not make Edmunds legit!
Dogecoin
Apple or Tesla ?? tough choice but Apple
Mistake. Think again.
Apple sucks.
Apple is trash. They need jobs back. 😩
It's a mistake for Apple to partner with Toyota... Toyota is going down.
