I haven’t had a car payment since March 2021.
I’m testing driving a Tesla with my wife.
It’s driving itself. It drove us to the charger. We charged for 10 mins from 34% to 70%. It drove us to lunch.
It’s driving us back to the drop off spot.
Yeah, I’m fucked. There is a 0% chance we don’t have a car payment soon…
Just saw TSLA stock. What a joke.
Still not understanding how a 35-40,000 dollar car that drives itself without a human in the control loop could be a valuable technology. Makes zero sense to me.
I’ve been using Tesla’s self drive tech for over a month now & I’m even more convinced that within ten years driving a car will be like riding a horse, something people just do for fun. It’s transformative on a level I don’t think most understand yet. Absolutely revolutionary.
“We’re starting to see meaningful margin improvement as Optimus takes on more work inside our factories. Using our humanoid Tesla Bots to handle repetitive and physically demanding tasks have reduced our labor costs, increased consistency, and improved throughput. This is not a one time gain and we see it compounding over time. As Optimus scales across production, it will become a structural advantage for Tesla’s margins across the board.”

A lot of Tesla haters and anti-EV folks start their argument with the assumption that people buy EVs because of the environment.
The truth is, I���m a conservative who drives a Tesla because it’s an insanely good product. The environmental benefits are just a bonus.
I pushed two buttons in my Tesla:
1- Microphone to activate Grok so I can tell it where to set navigation.
2- Start Self Driving to get there autonomously.
This is my reality and I am very lucky to experience it!
