I'm not impressed. It just smells like skunk to me. Whatever.

Can't you see how dangerous a leak is for a battery-car manufacturer?
You could get ACid burned!

Tesla is trying to do something new, different and important and that's never easy. Try building a new kind of a car in an economy like this and then see how you would get on with it. I think they do plan to build the four-seater, they're having an unveiling for it this month I believe. Of course they don't have enough money but you have to keep going forward and figuring out how to get it done. That's how business works.

"One can't fault Musk for dreaming. That's every entrepreneur's job. But his habit of talking about dreams as if they were reality could be what ultimately dooms his vision."
I've had mixed feelings about Tesla. I never liked the "we can do it better" attitude of people who had never done anything like this before, but I admired the drive and imagination of creating something new.
You're right about having to keep going forward, but where it gets ridiculous is when it drags down others in the process (i.e. those who pay deposits based on empty promises). That's not how business works.

He might make it as president, but I question him as CEO of a manufacturing company.
