They picked up the car from the Cary dealership….and then drove it around ‘my hood’. I was watching the whole video and kept seeing all these locations that I drive by daily.

And it explained how there is a HUD….that makes it a little better, but my wife didn’t like the look.

And then they also saw a Fisker Ocean on the road….that’s a cool looking EV

If you have some tolerance for risk, you can pick up a new one for close to half off.

Be dubious in everything but design. He’s tried and failed to make a car company several times. I think it’s because he’s bad at business. And also, it’s very hard to make a car company.

That's why you tell people it's not a car company, but a tech company. Easy peasy*

In a filing with federal regulators early Wednesday, the company said it would ask shareholders to vote on both issues during its annual meeting in June.

In January, Chancellor Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick ruled that Musk is not entitled to a landmark compensation package awarded by Tesla’s board of directors.

Five years ago, a Tesla shareholder lawsuit alleged that the pay package should be voided because it was dictated by Musk and was the product of sham negotiations with directors who were not independent of him.

It may be a tough sell for Tesla and Musk in June. Shares of Tesla Inc. have tumbled nearly 40% this year as global demand for electric vehicles fades and Tesla sales have fallen rapidly.
