      @stevenbollinger9776 5 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      I don't think they're changing the company. If Tesla was a rational company they'd fire Musk. But Musk has convinced the customers, the employees and the shareholders (many individuals are all 3) that he IS Tesla, that everything good about the cars and other products is due to him personally. So they'll probably keep paying him billions of dollars a year, while the customers keep getting boned, the employees keep working 80-100 per week for miserable pay, and the stockholders keep wondering when they're finally going to get a dividend.

    • @matthewseanmclachlan

      They really are maintenance free(for the most part that is). Problem with any product is that when you make literally thousands and thousands of products a year, machines are machines, and parts are parts, and those things no matter how perfect, inevitably will have a percentage of cars that will have defects, or parts that fail. The larger the number of product driving around, the larger the number that that .0009% of defects or failures outputs as well. (The .0009% was just an example)

The electric car is one day going to be as common as battery operated clocks in America, and setting up the very first garage in New England for electric cars is really going to be a big moment in history like the first Dunkin' Donuts.

And, yes I wish I could have spent more and purchased an upper-end Performance Model 3 but, I couldn't cough up the dough! I don't know exactly where you come from. I did not research you or, go back and review your very first Video to discover exactly who you are and what background you have. But, I wish to tell you, "you have a gift, sir!"! A wonderful, wonderful gift! And, while I have no need to watch videos of salvaged and restored Tesla's, both S and X, I find your videos irresistible! Yes, I have a life! And, yes, the weather here in New Mexico is colder now and I spend more time indoors and, yes, as a business owner I stay busy but, for 2 days this weekend, I have really and very much enjoy your narrations and teachings. Without a doubt, you have saved others millions of dollars by showing us the difficulties of restorations of a Tesla and other vehicles. I am here now just to tell you you have a great channel and I am very sorry I can't purchase a vehicle or service from you because of the distance between us. If there was ever anything I can do to help you, please advise. I would rather buy my next Tesla, from You! And I would also wish to thank you for all your efforts!
