This over the top for ones not planning to drive an EV before they become main stream.

Not sure who that guy is, but yep, big day for tesla investors. I want a tesla but am waiting on the new Roadster. I just hope I am not too old to drive it by the time they come out! LOL

This is the guy that I mentioned who sold his large Tesla holdings.

He should have waited a bit. It went up 12% today with the news about Hertz buying 100,000 Model 3. They are the 6th US company to be worth over $1 trillion.

Yes. He has put the money in startups going for a 10x gain again I expect. It will be 10 years before Tesla is $10K per share. He has a Roth IRA containing $5 billion. It was kind of strange that it was a former CEO of Ford now at Hertz that said Tesla was the only one Mass producing EVS and was their only option to move to ev's.

I wonder what will renting EVs do to the batteries. My thinking is renters don't keep their cars for very long and to increase range, they might to always charge them to 100%, which unless they are LFP, is bad for the battery longevity. They will probably replace the vehicle before it becomes an issue for them but the buyer and warranty?

Considering that everything is computerized they may be able to program for battery safety.
