I’d contend misspelling Cummings is a net positive, and, as such, you are the said dumbass.
It is funny how my slight of diesel power rubbed your truck nuts wrong.

You sure do seem agitated with my stance.

Are you a Tesla driver?

It has not, but you seem to take umbrage with my stance, which is a you issue, not a me issue.

I don't drive a diesel and do not have truck nuts on my ride.

I'd hate for you to be in control of your own money. To you demand=slashing sales prices to increase volumes. You must be loving this bull market lol

You could have just said you were wrong about no demand since you are 100% wrong about no demand.
You can also go ahead and say you're wrong about losing money on every car they sell since you're wrong about that as well.
Man, I see you have "financial" in your user name, pretty scare if you're in charge of other people's money, I hope you're not throwing out these false "facts" to your clients as well, if so.

Link?
I can find numerous links showing Tesla loses huge sums of money...
And they don't have any cheap cars to draw people into showrooms (that they don't have) so all they sell should be high margin, Yet seas of red ink....

You also may be thinking of a lot of talk that the cheapest, $35k Tesla had many rumors that it would lose money. That wasn't substantiated that I know of, but even if true, the other poster is still wrong as he stated they lose money on "every" car they sell. That is not true.
The gross margin on the Model 3 was over 20% at some point last year, and it dipped under 20% in Q1 of 2019. But they're not losing money on "every" car they sell.

They are losing money somewhere. How many cash calls can one company make before the well dries up?

Unless something changed recently they haven't delivered ANY base model 3's. Only highly optioned ones that bring more money in.
They can show a 20% margin by not fully allocating costs, which apparently they have done as has been previously stated, they are losing huge sums of money.

All I'm saying is that one dude said they lose money on every car they sell. That is simply not true. That's all I was saying.
quote:They probably have a ways to go before getting to that dire point. But given how far ahead they are in the EV game as well as with software, I'm not worried one bit. If worst case scenario pops up, someone like Google or Apple will buy the company. There is zero chance Tesla just goes bankrupt and their cars go away any time remotely soon. The tech in the car is wayyyyyy too valuable to just disappear.

I'm pretty sure they paid a $920mil bond back in Q1 as well as another $188 mil in non-recurring charges.
ETA: Before others jump in like I'm sure they want to, I'm not saying everything else was just peachy in Q1. Demand did have a big dip mostly due to the tax credit being cut in half.
