are they really that valuable
Did you out and buy yours, yesterday comrade?!?!?!
I don't think IT's strategy of buying high and selling low is working.WTF are you trying to say ya dumb Cun ty
This shows it best, a 30 day slice. You could connect two sides of that insane spike with a smooth line that still has an upward slope. Chinas issues will affect Chinese deliveries, thats not a Tesla caused issue but will affect the price downward a little, I think. You can expect a to see another increase when Model Y deliveries begin in March instead of the expected October/Nov 20 they were expected to make. View attachment 145028
That's also cherry picked. Go back 4 months and they are up over 100%
Availibilty of lithium to make batteries will be their Achilles heel.
Maybe with the batteries, but aluminum.....doubtful. one of the things that I know real well is aluminum alloys. 7075 is the strongest useful alloy, there is at least one stronger (7079) but it has problems with something called stress corrosion cracking, they tried to use it on the Apollo program but it cracked just setting on the shelf. 7075 is too expensive to use in the auto industry for anything but super cars.Nah, we're fine on lithium until we get it from asteroids. And Tesla led with locking in suppliers for quite a while.

And I know the virus thing is screwing up everything right now, but stuff coming donw the pike looks good.
1. Battery and Powertrain Investor day is expected to have some pretty serious battery chemistry and manufacturing advances announced, And not ones that will bear fruit in five years, but this year or next year. New stronger aluminum alloys that will not only decrease weight in motors, but also have better electrical properties increasing efficiency. Both of which increase range.
2. Model Y release in March instead of November, possibly being manufactured with new large parts casting methods that will decrease cost and complexity. Those methods might also work backwards into Model 3 production.
3. Those things are just for 2020. Roadster doesnt really move the money needle any, but the semi and the cybertruck in 2021 have potential.
4. All the "tesla killers" that were coming came and killed nothing. The VW car is a train wreck. The trucks will be interesting to see Hard to judge competition since nobody is actually in production yet.

People are only buying Teslas for the battery packs for the impending virus apocalypse. Preppers.
