The continuing decline of Tesla
How far will it go?
Electric vehicle maker Tesla has been hit by round after round after round of layoffs over the past month or so, to the degree that it's somewhat hazy exactly how many employees have been affected.
And the cuts keep piling up, with CNBC now obtaining government paperwork through a public records request that shows the company is slashing another 600 jobs at its facilities in California, running the gamut from factory workers to highly qualified engineers.

Real crisis is showing up at dealer's lots. Overpriced cars and truck aren't selling. Waiting untill Aug-Sept when they will finally drop the prices back.

Are you sure Tesla offers end of model year deals?

I'm just wondering what kind of Mad Max-apocalyptic movies can be expected set in the 50 years from now future...Will Max quietly coast to a stop at an abandoned charging station in a deserted town, trying his extension cord in one outlet after another until he finds one with enough voltage to get him to Duracell City where he can fight the goons of the Diehard Queen to unlock the Energizer warehouse?......Ben

I know a Tesla owner, a Nephew of mine. His company bought it for him. He's owned several cars thus far and says it's his favorite one of them all.
I'm thinking these current EV setbacks will be good for the industry long term. They'll take more notice of what the public wants in EVs and we'll see future improvements.
