seems perfectly logical to me ---------- and, when you think that most Nordics think of Americans as dickheads - it makes even more sense - even if they like Musk the individual

the whole idea of Musk losing his shine is a crock of crap

big guys with big ideas will always be behind in some areas -- one of the common ones seems to be that if they think something can be done in a month - it takes 6 or 12 (although Musk did ok with the SA battery on timing).

Musk will go down in history as one of the biggest movers in the genius class I think ------------ he's not just a car guy - his brilliance is far and wide

and, as do they all - he'll have some shit ideas and some great ideas

atm - the bloke is way down the track on getting humans to understand each other perfectly with nuralink - if he does get that developed - he will change mankind - and, that's a huge gong

he's also on the way into space - which is an enormous thing for an individual to have done

his cars - well - there's one thing - they go like the wind ---------- and, it's early days

Henry Ford would be impressed

Not sure if Ford would be impressed.

When Henry Ford introduced the mass-produced and gas-powered Model T in 1908, it symbolized a death blow to the electric car. By 1912, a gasoline car cost only $650 while the average electric roadster sold for $1,750

Nontheless electric cars still costs 3 times as much & go 1/2 the distance or less & still take a day to charge.
