    only if you buy used .... trust me - after going through both the S & X. Let someone else eat that $20K instant depreciation as you pass across their driveway apron & only a measly 8 miles on the odometer

    Yeah, we could have had two.... but then, how would that have ever helped Musk's profits.

    Simple. Buy one that's 2 years old or more, then you still have 2 or almost 2 years warranty, & for measly couple grand they will extended the warranty for a few years more. And if it's one of their vehicles with lots of warts, just think of all the different types of loners you will get to try out.

    I'm wondering if it will be Bob or us that gets that first great deal on a Model 3 for under $40K. I've got my eBay sniper software locked and loaded

    This is how I see TSLA:
    [​IMG]
    • TSLA -> Nothin' in week 12-09 signaled prices were about to decease. Buyers were missing while sellers were active. The usual executive turnover still happening. When I left a company, I always sold my stock because they were not bright enough to keep me (and always made a nice profit.) NOTE: need to check executive stock holdings to see if their sales orders might initiate TSLA price decline. Then check if these former executives might be investing in their new employer.
    • TSLA + KL -> Week 12-16 shows the value to diversity, both TSLA and KL (gold).
    • TSLA -> Week 12-23 will have a short Monday and then three full days. This is an excellent time for shorts to cover their margins to avoid or reduce potential losses. I still expect to see a short-squeeze bring the price up starting in the next two weeks.
    • KL -> Week 12-16 flat gold stock suggests a general panic has not started but leveling of 'concern' from week 12-09. The wise are waiting to see how the bigger picture turns out.
    For week 12-23, I can see a TSLA 10% price increase because of new investors seeking 'safe harbor' and 'short squeeze.' A lot of general market investors have seen a recent loss of equity with general economy bad news. Regardless, I am not a 'day trader' as I really look forward to the Q4 sales and production numbers.

    Tesla has had a relatively quiet quarter with USA capital expenses. The China effort is reported to be supported by Chinese capital, not a solo Tesla investment. Tesla had time to tune their manufacturing and suppliers leading to greater margins and supporting lower retail prices. Tesla has also started shipping Model 3s to expanding markets.

    CAUTION: I own TSLA stock, ~2/3ds of my holdings, So I am NOT an objective observer.

    I think it is going to be closer to $50K (BASE) and easy to add $10K in options...............worth every centavo!

    And various forms of cancer as a result of not being proactive on climate change and environmental degradation. Toyota and their owners will be reviled one day for putting profits and polluting automobiles ahead of social responsibility.

    What is your carbon footprint?

    Putting being judgmental aside as right or wrong, you seem quite adamant that you are way ahead of him and others on these grounds.

    He has the Gatorade cooler in the corner that is filled with Tesla juice;).

    Elon Musk keeps refilling it and he keeps going back for more:cool:.

    Everything Elon touches doesn’t turn to gold(y).
