Elon privately snickers as his $500MM donation added $8 Billion to his personal net worth and now he is not only the richest man in the world... but one of the few that DJT will feel (truly) beholden to if he wins another 4 years.

---> Operation Elon complete;) :thumbsup:

Financial analysts following X/Twitter have stated for over a year now that the company would not have the cash available to make interest payments in either the 3rd or 4th quarter of this year. Elon Musk will need to come up with the cash from another source.

Elon Musk’s financial woes at X have Tesla bulls fearing he will liquidate more stock

Maybe his (now) good buddy DonnieBoy can "loan" him some bucks.
 
Although not applicable to Tesla, or EV's only, I found this interesting this morning:-

Cars could get lighter

New varieties of steel could make cars hundreds of pounds lighter and hundreds of dollars cheaper to run. Steelmaking is more than 2,000 years old, but major advances were made in the early 20th century as cars became mainstream. Regulatory changes since the 1960s pushed automakers to seek out stronger, lighter steel, while recent developments, involving higher-temperature furnaces, repeated heating and cooling, and high-pressure injection of water, create steels that are 10 times stronger than older types and are cheaper to produce. New steel alloys, incorporating titanium or niobium, also stabilize the structure. “It is a revolution,” an engineer told Knowable, and one that will be important as carmakers try to squeeze extra range out of heavy electric vehicles.

Tesla's doing so well that they are storing hundreds of unsold cars in parking lots in Las Vegas and across the U.S.

Why are so many parking lots in Las Vegas full of Teslas? Here's what we were able to find out.

"We discovered Las Vegas isn't the only city with a Tesla takeover. On social media, we found the same thing is happening in Scottsdale, Arizona; Richmond, Virginia; and Seattle, Washington; among a few other locations in Florida and Missouri."

So this guy Ryan, of the Action 13 News in Vegas (the local ABC affiliate :rolleyes:), a regular Edward R. Murrow hard-scrap, gum-shoe investigative journalist that he is... searches social media and comes up with this (zero links of course):

"We discovered Las Vegas isn't the only city with a Tesla takeover. On social media, we found the same thing is happening in Scottsdale, Arizona; Richmond, Virginia; and Seattle, Washington; among a few other locations in Florida and Missouri. "

But he "dug deeper" (Long live Edward) and came up with this:

Ketcham did some digging and found that according to Tesla's first quarter earnings report, the company produced nearly 47,000 more cars than they delivered.

Apparently missing this:

Wait... was it the Dollar-Tree Stadium parking lot that was filled with these unsold TSLA's with "QR codes" on them.... let me look... (nope, they haven't built a stadium yet).

Close though... it was the local Dollar Tree on Sahara and N. Vine. Probably known for its massive parking lot.
