I'm an MMA nerd on top of being an EV nerd who covers Tesla, so this was right up my alley. The whole thing was pretty straightforward and I lost a lot of respect for Elon in this whole thing. First, Zuck, who was far from one of the most liked people around, was getting a lot

Tesla Semi is probably the program I'm most excited about at Tesla right now. I know it has been delayed forever, but it finally looks like it's ramping up even a bit ahead of the volume production factory coming online next year.

Come on. A stranger who has a stockbroker is going to hand you $100k to invest in Tesla on the spot because he is impressed by your Cybertruck? Then, why do you mention this only a week later, after he happens to be up on the made-up investment? There are way too many liars in

Just a few years ago, if you would have told me that Elon Musk sold Tesla stocks to pay for ads that promote natural gas and petrol production as part of a presidential candidate’s campaign, I would have never believed you. Now, it’s the third nuttiest thing he did this week.

One of the biggest problems with social media is that it is the old saying 'A lie Can Travel Halfway Around the World While the Truth Is Putting On Its Shoes' on steroids. And people, like the owner of the platform, want all the clout and revenue from the lie, but none of the

Are Tesla buyers only buying 'Full Self-Driving (Supervised)' right now? The only hope is the word 'currently' in the fingerprints, but that's certainly weaker language than before.

This is pretty cool. Now Uber drivers with Tesla vehicles can now get their trip navigation sent automatically to the vehicle's center display. Uber even gets battery state-of-charge information in order to only send trip request within the Tesla's current range.

$TSLA shareholders should be pissed about this. Tesla, a public company, is not on Threads, a practical free way to promote its products, because it is a competitor to its CEO's private company that has nothing to do with Tesla. Let that sink in.

To the surprise of many, myself included, Nio proved that battery swapping can work for EVs. But with self-driving cars is definitely where it will shine. I still think it's more of a gap-filling technology as charging times are likely to come down to a level that make battery

If there's something or someone you like, you shouldn't believe everything positive said about them just because it matches your narrative. If there's something or someone you dislike, you shouldn't believe everything negative said about them just because it matches your

You can be an EV fan without being a Tesla fan. Just like you can be an EV fan without being a fan of any particular EV. However, I didn't think you could be a Tesla fan without being an EV fan, but apparently not. There's now a type of Tesla fans who simply dislike all other
