    I used to be happy when people say "cool bike bro'

    I used to say something now I just find it annoying


    Am I making the rest of bikers look bad or stuck up by ignoring people trapped in cars ?

    Yours sincerely.. best looking snobby bike owner.

    You should invest your time and energy in making more money, not searching over my historical posts,

    Whats it like being poorer than your parents?

    I clocked up 13,000km in just over a year, a proud yet small achievement, I plan to sit my full license when I can be bothered , thanks for checking up on my progress broke boy!x

    Cool story bro, I did really enjoy pointing out your posts that, like your investment stories, That simply just don't add up.......
    What's funny is you are now not just limiting yourself to only making up stories about yourself, you now are trying to make up stories about me as well, epic.

    but simply put ,you are on this site making up shit, only to troll for attention, yet get upset when you are called out for it.

    Currently in Aussie, in 5 weeks it will be Colombia, then another 3 weeks after that in the USA all the while doing what I love, then back to NZ for a decent South Island ride. I rarely need to set an alarm clock, though once I'm up i generally stay busy - life for me really aint that bad.

    One point I picked up on Tesla Investor day, drive chain is typically 25% the cost of the vehicle, Tesla can cut this cost & bring the model 3 down to 25k usd.

    Looks like the model 3 will be the much vaunted 25k Tesla and the next generation model 2 robo taxi likely to be leased and not necessarily owned by Joe public.

    Other car manufacturers can't keep up with these prices, 70% of the market see a an ev or car as a tool to get from a to b, Tesla will likely have a monopoly over the car industry in the next 5years if they keep building Giga factories around the world, Tesla Mexico Giga looks like it will be 2 x the size of Texas Giga factory, CEO Tom Zhu of Tesla China who is a kiwi, wants Tesla Mexico to be up and running in half the time Tesla Shanghai was, so cars could start being delivered in 9 months from 1st day of construction in at the new Tesla Mexico plant .

    Notice how I don't copy and paste someone else's research...because I do my own.

    It's why I'm wealthy.

    Cool story bro, can you make up another one for us all?
    Ps listening to a company talk up their own prospects about themselves isn't in anyway creditable research.
    nor is parrot it back doing you any favours...

    Any day is motorcycling day. Weather permitting. There are enough fine days that I shouldn't need to ride in the rain any more. If I'm getting wet on the bike I stuffed up.

    In 2016 Elon put out the following edict....

    "Create stunning solar roofs with seamlessly integrated battery storage"
    "Expand the electric vehicle product line to address all major segments"
    "Develop a self-driving capability that is 10X safer than manual via massive fleet learning"
    "Enable your car to make money for you when you aren't using it".

    7 years on, how much of that has been truly realised?

    Depends on how you look at it.

    Point 1 - the Tesla Solar roof panels are fully realised, depending on what your view on 'seamlessly integrated' means.
    Point 2 - Much the same, The Family Car and the SUV.
    Point 3 - If NZ roads and drivers are anything to go by, 10x safer was achieved decades ago...
    Point 4 - Is basically relient on point 3 being fully realised - the idea that without a driver, things like Uber and other gig-services that require a vehicle could be done autonomously.

    Certainly, when he made these statements - it was part of a vision of the future - the fact that it's not yet been achieved isn't a blight on Elon - he set some lofty targets and they are difficult to do.

    It's certainly nothing to scoff at the progress that has been made.

    Well in a pragmatic neutral way - rather than a give Elon a break TDL way
    1. Agreed
    2. How many other car manufacturers have only 2 styles of car? Hint:sweet fuck all. Correct answer - fail.
    3. Self driving = fail
    4. As you point out, related to point 2 - so also fail. How many self driving tesla uber vehicles have you seen driving about making money for their owners? Zero, which as it happens is also the same score as your "not very creative" answers to points 2, 3 and 4

    I'm actually pretty neutral when it comes to musk and tesla. If I were to buy an EV which wont happen until charging stations actually would support my NZ driving habits would be a long range model 3. Musk in my opinion is a genius. His space x work is very impressive. Many aspects of Tesla are very impressive too. Though the jury is out on if the cyber truck will be fit for purpose. Musk should stop predicting tesla model roll out dates though. And imo he is driving twitter into the toilet, which I also feel is by design - and I feel the toilet is a good place for twitter to be.

    I ain't got nothing against Musk either, he really is charging into the future, heh.

    Three of the four above are realised in China and Europe, the omitted one being the robo car hustle. The self driving taxi's in China are still restricted in area but expanding at a rapid rate.

    Musk gets a lot of headlines and fanfare but in my opinion is actually being caught up with and passed by other companies.
