they are not all obvious jokes.

Exactly and that's the point Keeeed doesn't seem to get lol. Does anyone outside of the cultists believe this or a semi truck will ever happen?

wait, you think a six seat pickup truck with a range of 400 miles is not feasible? Seems plausible to me.

Musk is just range merging his jokes with his lies.

the car is feasible, but when and where are they gonna build it? how do they pay for the factory?

who knows, it isn't even in preliminary stages. It's in brainstorming on twitter stage.

Keeping a balanced fraud range

Keeed,

I need a Musk Tweet interpreter. In hind sight this tweet from last year was an obvious joke. Should we all have known it was a joke at the time?


It'll be hand built in a tent as part of the paradigm shift in manufacturing that will kill off the established auto makers.

Drone video and great thread about tent

that does not appear to be a joke.

I am a fan of the keed translation service

Look how fast security took notice too

So this happened:

What is the point of this? A few options I can see:

1. Musk is insane and feels personally slighted when people don't believe in him
2. Musk is desperate to keep the stock elevated and sees the need to counter negative views to stop it from sliding and keep his lage cult following believing in him
3. Musk believes in what he's doing and wants the "I told you so" when he succeeds
4. ...........?

I don't think I've seen such behavior from a non-scam CEO. Why on Earth would anyone who's about to hit a production target do this? You let the numbers speak for themselves, they're mere days away, and besides, you're far too busy getting production done and dealing with being a CEO of three companies to be reading and writing email responses to negative analysts...right?

Whoops, sorry, my mistake. That obviously weakens the argument, but I think the point still stands and is relevant to the broader implications being made.

Security guard now guarding the entrance to the factory!

What an amazing time to be alive

security at large factories is standard?

Have any of you guys ever actually been to a large manufacturing plant?

The fact it is likely in direct response to the drone video showing large scale fraud and its a dirt road like a half mile away


Ya i think its amazing

yeah man if you have idiots flying drones around a major manufacturing plant anywhere in the world you're going to get a security response directly responding to that. Like what world do you people live in?

Why is he an idiot? He's getting publicly available information from pubic land. All within the law. Bypassing the lying sack of **** that is Elon Musk and going directly to the source.

I love the large covering flap they've put up to cover the fact that they aren't producing much of anything there let alone a working volume assembly line as Musk implied. He is just lying again.

Imagine having billions of dollars and being such a cuck you need to email your employees about negative analyst commentary with a "you just wait!" and being paranoid about random Twitter losers undoing your lies by taking pictures of your factory from public land.

Tent in the parking lot with manual assembly line != major manufacturing plant, but whatever. I sure as hell wouldn't want to purchase any car made in that tent. That's a disaster.

What major manufacturing plants do have are walls (lol), climate control, and automated material handling processes. The idea of trying to mass produce a modern automobile in those conditions is so ludicrous I can't believe it's actually happening. I hope they at least invested in some of those high-voltage-shocker-thinggies to deal with the bugs.

$70,000 car made in a tent + bug zapper + no instrument panel but iPad stuck on dashboard = redneck galore.

Elon's sure disrupting the auto industry with his alien dreadnaught manufacturing facility.

Also, this is ****ing hilarious. Bear in mind this guy is well on public land. At 2:25 onwards someone comes out (blurred - Elon?) and throws a water bottle over the fence is an attempted assault on the camera guy



Redenck Defcon level: 2 and climbing.

That's just more LOLbears talk. The guard is obviously providing water to the drone pilot so he doesn't get dehydrated in the Nevada desert.

The video here is just gold. Live manufacturing inside the tent, entirely by hand, paying San Francisco wages. This is after 10 years in business and 10 billion in secondary capital alone and with everything they own mortgaged to get to this point. Tell me this car company has a future.

Tell me this is a business with a future - hastily putting together hand assembly lines in a makeshift building using spare parts because they can't hit even minor production targets 6 months late, are dead broke and have nothing to spend on real capex.

this is just an amazing story.

there's new idiotic stuff happening EVERY SINGLE DAY. like every rational board would've kicked their CEO out the door first thing for any of the stuff that's going on here on a daily basis. but they can't, because first, he's put them there, and second, without him, people will stop throwing their money on this flaming pile of ****.

forget enron, forget aol/time warner, 15 years from now, this is THE business/investment school case for everything you can do wrong.

i had already forgotten that just a few weeks ago they flew a whole factory line across the atlantic. that's millions down the drain because they are just so unbelievably bad at everything. and that was supposed to fix everything. nothing is fixed. this is getting worse and worse.
