TSLA 2022

I'm going to step back and wait till below $200...Then option the $200.

Was thinking about my posts a couple of years ago about Tesla's and their cost/time to repair. It is a REAL issue. It can not be glossed over.

Here is a thread from Tesla owners. Their repairs are so costly and time consuming. It seems there is a love/hate relationship with Tesla. They have NOT resolved their service/repair issues!! Was wondering if I could total a Tesla (and make it undriveable) in 30 seconds with a sludge hammer??

TSLA is acting very weak lately,
Been holding strong but the bear takes them all.

Agreed about the service cost/time. I think priority over the last 2/3 years has been on resolving manufacturing issues that brought a lot of cars back in the shop to be fixed. I think they've succeeded there as there are far fewer complaints about those today. Tesla is expanding their roaming mechanics service which apparently resolves most problems.
However, repairs due to accidents are the big issue. There are too few garages certified to repair EVs in general and Tesla in particular. The cost of repairing Tesla vehicles is higher than traditional automobiles, insurance premiums are higher too and Tesla tends to be totalled often because cost of repairs is so high.
Tesla got in the insurance business because 1. They have records of all driving history and can gauge premiums better than traditional insurance cos. 2. It's much easier for Tesla to repair/resell their vehicles. 3. They were aware that high insurance premiums impact sales and needed a solution. I don't know if Tesla breaks even with insurance premiums/in house repair/resell but I'm sure some bright minds are working on it.

Tesla is working hard to increase its number of service facilities with high goals set by Musk of 2/3 days turn around. But he has said many things over the years that we are still waiting for (a humanoid robot is not one of them). In a way, Tesla is a victim of its success and the backend service hasn't caught up to the front end demand yet.

Yes, yes... Fully aware of the short speculation and where price is hanging on at. Musk sold a lot of shares to buy Twitter and the rumors about a buyback is in part to remove that excess, so the rumor goes. Not sure if that would effectively raise the share price significantly, or how the market would respond to a split followed by a buyback months apart.
 
The biggest issue they face in the short term is customer saturation. They just aren't going to have the customer base for massive growth over the next 2-3 years because of belt tightening at the margin. I don't know how you can't expect revenue growth deceleration right now.

They are already right now fighting against themselves with current owners having cars that are too new to think about upgrading at the margin. It is not like your 2018 Tesla is unfashionable now.

I would imagine the robot is a very long term bet on the cost of human labor from demographics. I would imagine that 4 trillion dollar number is exactly because of the humanoid robot. If you solve humanoid robots for factory work then you solve humanoid robots generally and you solve low skilled human labor generally. Self driving is surely a harder problem with the speeds involved. That is really more of a low cost manufacturing problem but whatever they solve for there would also help the cost of the cars.
 
First time adding TSLA shares last week, and plan to add more. My entry price was low, before they opened the Shanghai factory.

TINA on the stateside.
 
It's official, Tesla just received its EPA approval for its Semi. If line holds, PepsiCo will start getting deliveries in early December.

For those following PepsiCo, should be interesting to see how much savings they squeeze from the switch to EV trucks.
