TSLA - the world seems to finally be waking up to the idea (I
think it's a fact, but it's definitely arguable) that personal EV's
are not going to be a viable long term solution.
My wife just filled her SUV and it cost $95. My Tesla Y costs
about $16 electricity for comparable distance of travel. People are
waking up to the opposite of your comment DigiNomad.
low cost of electricity, plenty incentives from utility
companies to install charger at home for free,no oil changes/wear
and tear/no need to change brakes for 150K miles atleast/save time
without going to gas station (charge at home during night
time)...probably more reasons left

Haha - "homes" ....that's what the rich men seem to be missing.
Much of the world, even America, is mostly in
condos/apartments. No garage to install a charger in...

I have noticed that many of the higher-end condo/apartment
complexes in Chicago have a handful of charging parking spots for
EVs. Obviously, you get what you pay for by living in a nicer
building and I'm sure the HOA on those places is $500-1,000/mo with
door security, parking garages, amenities, etc.
Absolutely correct about charging stations. I have an electric
vehicle drives beautifully and I have a charger installed at home
but do not take the risk of a long distance trip because the
charging stations so few and when you find one someone’s
using it and not leaving for a long time.

And the production components aren't sustainable or scalable.
It's going to go the way of the dodo bird.
Listen to any earnings call this quarter from an automaker
other than TSLA and let me know your impression of the health of
the market, short and medium term.
Did you see the EV market in China had 500 companies and now
only 100 left. There was a photo of all the vehicles parked and
there were thousands of them.
