Forum: Tesla - Msg #371Thread #673432773 (Rec: 0)
drove down to the chicago get amped tour event today. after seeing the car in person, i really feel like it is ready for consumers. it seems like mechanically a much simpler automobile than either gasoline or hybrid, and i am convinced the economics relative to gasoline powered cars are quite attractive.

i feel like tesla's biggest problem is going to be production, not demand. they have ample demand for what they are producing now, and they're not really marketing. the car is simply amazing, so when they are ready i'm sure they will find some intelligent way to market it. they said on the call leasing will make a lot of sense, and i agree.

loaded the boat here. left a small amount of room to add but really i'm betting they'll work out the remaining production issues. guessing this has to be a multi year hold if it works, but the short term most important thing is making sure they can produce 4,000-5,000 units a month starting with the 4th quarter. if they can do that, i don't think they'll go broke and it will just be a matter of time before this thing goes over $100.

my daily motivational reading, what the high and mighty penny pumpers say about luv:

"any knowledge you currently have about trading, finance, accounting, etc... that i don't, are things i can fully absorb within a relatively short period of time if its really important to do so... on the other hand, i am quite certain that you are incapable of grasping even 20% of the knowledge i've gained in math, associated algorithmic coding, physical chemistry, solid-state physics, materials science and engineering over decades of study." 

"There are those who market trades, and there are those who trade markets.
There are those who follow marketers, and those who follow markets.
The marketers feast on their followers; the traders feast on the markets." -luvb2b
