the bigger picture with electric cars .. is total control of the power grid ..if the grid goes down ? yeah wake up to Musk he’s a puppet in plain sight with his come follow me pied piper game 😏
What if Tesla self driving already is successful but the government realized it would cost so many jobs that they decided to shelf it as a DOD project ?
@Oh-That-Guy-Again Maybe, where it makes sense. Superchargers in the EU and the US are quite developed. Elon did not say about the international teams developing superchargers. Development of Superchargers stations is only essential where the market is emerging on EVs. Logically it may still make sense to one team of developers in China and other countries with similar growth situations.
*Tesla patents have been open since 2014 offered for free in good faith, in other words you can't sue Tesla if you use them, and Elon hasn't drawn a salary for years, he is in a legal case to reinstate his 6yr pay package the board and shareholders had agreed on in 2018, Tesla has installed far more charging stations than anyone else, have you given any other company crap about not doing as much? Oh and Tesla is highly profitable and efficient they have $29.4Billion cash reserves, they aren't going broke Scotty, take a look at the financials.*
@Ziegfried82 If that's what you tell yourself to make you feel better. All that money going straight to the Saudis. Meanwhile, I spent my money on an American car and my electricity is produced right here in the USA 🇺🇸 Actually EVs do work. Been driving them for well over 3 years now. Never had an issue. Can't say the same for my previously owned ICE vehicles. You keep making them Saudis richer though! 🤣
@@PelosiStockPortfolio in most countries ev's are subsidized by lower taxes on the ev, while costing enough that you need to be rich to buy one. also largely subsidized by energy taxation, since you can burn oil to make electricity and still come up ahead without the taxes vs. gasoline taxes in most countries. oil production subsidies tend to lower market cost of oil, which gives less money to saudis. as for buying a 100k ev and saving money, sure if you don't count it against a 50k car. if the 30k car is taxed like in most countries to be a 60k car because it is gasoline then absolutely you're as that guy paying for the rich mans 100k ev - this isn't really any sort of a debate even in most countries since it was stated government policy in most western countries to do exactly that to get more ev's on the road, which was the entire reasoning for letting ev's be sold at much lower value taxation through the co2 rating taxation mechanisms. more often though it leads to buying a phev, which has theoretical lower co2 and the hybrid system is essentially a free bolt on due to how much it lowers taxes but again for the richer side of the folks.
The reliability was improving for Ford and GM until they moved everything to Mexico and decided that lowest cost bid manufacturing was the preferred paradigm. Doing so also reintroduced planned obsolescence. Aren't we lucky? Sarcasm😊
@@asajayunknown6290 - assembly is a different issue from R&D which has been declining at GM and Ford since the 70s. Assembly in Mexico is cheaper than in Canada but the quality is also lower.
If you are not able to install a charger at your home, and you consistently drive more than 300 miles in a day, stick with gas as long as you can. Otherwise, the Model Y gets 320 miles per charge, you can fully charge each night while you sleep for less than $15, and if you need to charge on the go you can get an 80% charge in 15-20 minutes. If you just need an extra 100 miles on top of the 320 mile range that is not much slower than putting gas in your car. Maintenance for the Tesla is much less than four gas vehicles, and their performance is much better than gas vehicles. It’s really a no-brainer. And by the way, I drive 20,000 miles each year, and I will be buying a model Y very soon. While I would prefer 400 miles or more of range, 320 miles should be more than enough 99% of the time.
@@guildguitars6349 It's a joke. In real world conditions tesla fall 30% short of their claimed mileage. Just 60mph highway driving they won't make the range. The range claim is based on a steady 28mph.
The vast majority of the population doesn't work on stuff mechanically and so cannot see that adding needless tech is a recipe for failure. We should be building for longevity not scrap, put a pile of energy back i,n and produce a new one. That's environmental stupid. All manufacturers are going for smaller motor's that are blown and all this means is fractional fuel improvements and an engine that runs half as long.
My work car went from a 2.5L Forester to a 1.5 turbo Equinox that's smaller and gets substantially worse mileage and has a smaller gas tank. I doubt it will last long after the warranty either. 😒
@@jimbonater deeply regret selling my 2.5L forester last year. It was 15 years old, so I thought time for an upgrade. Little did I know that all the new foresters have CVTs and other brands have all sorts of fragile tech. Had to settle on a new Mazda. Still has more tech than I wish it did.
Same here with a 1966’ Oldsmobile 98, that surprisingly has a lot of features today’s cars have….factory automatic ac, cruise control, auto dimming headlights, power everything….just to make a few
@@robertthomas5906yeah, how’s your truck industry doing? ROFL, the entire car market is bad, but you lot just blame EVs. The ford and ram dealership have lots full of $80k trucks including 2023 models. Tesla is a special case because Elon talks too much for his own good, alienating your customer base for tax cuts is genius.
Oil was formed during a period of millions of years, in the past 150 years we have used up just a few thousand years of those millions of years, meaning we still have thousands of years left going at the current rate. In that time we will discover probably infinite energy sources alternatives to oil
The real question is does he like the energy idea of replacing it obviously with a battery supplement where the battery would store the power such as Elon musk suggest lol won't give him credit though lol also he said some b******* about billionaires I wonder how much money he has in his bank account, guarantee you he's comfortable... Average bank account is like 300 bucks by the way That's like 70% of the populace in United States... Not to mention 7 to $9,000 debt averaged for I believe credit card, I'm trying to say anyone looks rich to people with nothing and no financial education to do something about it like buying Tesla stock and waiting until 2030
when they finally bring the small modular molten lithium tetrafluoroberyllate salt reactors (that use our current nuclear waste for fuel) online, they can give their lithium 6 to the fusion fanbois in their pursuit of the aneutronic fusion pipe dream ⚛
Thorium went into Canadian CANDU reactors recently.........the energy yield from the fuel assembly bundle was increased 700%. Which also means 700% less waste. The ironic part is that Thorium was investigated in depth during the Manhattan project........it was useless for making weapons, but it was better than Uranium for running power reactors.
Safer but not better. They need constant input or the reaction stops, so that makes it safer, but it also is a big power drain, make it cost more per megawatt. It also does not make as many useful medical isotopes as a byproduct.
Thorium in CANDU has been done since 1970s in tests. actually you can breed Thorium into weapons material, just not as convenient are uranium. But we do have thorium sufficient for at least 10,000 years of reactor fuel
And loads of at least European governments are ramming these rich mans toys down our throats. I can't afford a new fossil fuel car............how can I then afford a new EV which is a lot more expensive ? Used EVs are crap with degraded batteries that cost a ton to replace, no such issues with used fossil fuel cars, fill it up and go. EV are not necessarily 'cheaper' or 'cleaner' to drive either, it just depends what people focus on and choose to ignore.
@@segredosdotiosam9989correction. Keeping the battery between 80% and 20% and another 10% to run the environmental system, it’s a max of 225 miles. Try not to tow with it.
Us “yuppies” stopped buying teslas when old Elon turned into a politician, guess that’s what happens when you alienate your customer base. He’s more up your line anyways, your buddies give him the big tax cuts while cutting your wages.
Everyone who wants one and can afford one, sell your stick now. I tried warning people about Microsoft and the coming collapse and no one listened. Dump 90% of your Tesla stock NOW.
@@ginog5037conservatives, of course. They are responsible for stagnant wage growth and a declining middle class since the very year Reagan was elected. GWB and Trump increased the speed by cutting more worker protections. Look it up on census data, wage growth kept this country wealthy for 40 years, then Reagan was elected and the oligarch class became regulation free to begin the largest wealth transfer in human history from the working/middle class to the 1%. These economic policies fail in the long term as has been proven the world over. The last conservative who gave a d@mn about working people was Eisenhower.
@@gary.s7759 I meant new for electrical power generation for towns. Obviously they have been used by the military. But that technology is still different also. I'm talking about energy for 2-300,000 people on a daily basis. Very doable.
Small modular reactors make no economic sense. That fact is clear from all of the failed projects - which fail because no-one can make money from them. As for "but nuclear powered ships!". They only make sense when the government (tax payer) is picking up all of the cost and all of the risk and has minimal regulatory issues because it's for defense. You just can't compare the two.
I live near Washington, D. C., and our beltway around the city is usually clogged during rush hours, and at other times too, due to construction of new lanes, repairs, whatever. Most days, you will see literally thousands of cars barely moving, and if it's hot, they are all running their AC units, eating up more fuel. The problem is not that our cars are inefficient, the problem is the road grid can't handle them all. Mass transit here is a joke: it is how we tell poor people that their time doesn't matter. --Old Guy
What makes me mad is we all knew what a bad idea this was. How much material was wasted? I don't want to hear about carbon footprints when these "green" companies keep producing waste.
It takes 6 minutes to fill my Camry gas tank to drive 300 miles. Some model EV's take over an hour to recharge for the same distance. If we ever reach a point where Gas cars and EV's have equal number of cars on the road, we will need at least 10 (ten) chargers to equal one gas pump to meet consumer demand. There is no way to achieve this in the next 10 years!
Yep exactly. My car takes 3.5 minutes to fill and will go 500 miles. EVs don't stand a chance. I do alot of cross country driving and Canada/US driving and an electric car will never be feasible.
Because Tesla corp and many big corps owned by Globalists are broke and collapsing... it's taking longer because they are doing stalling tactics and pretending everything is awesome when it's not.
@@scottgaree7667 a 25 stall super charger would use more power than a small town. It would be a lot of conduit to carry that and it will be very expensive to install. All semi truck charging stations would need their own gas power plant. We simply do not produce enough electricity to replace all the energy that we get from fossil fuels. And we don't have a way to do so. Solar and wide are not enough and we could build it fast enough to get there before the old ones break.
Scotty, this is my favorite video of yours, telling like it is! I love hearing truth about electric cars. Batteries are good for phones (and still suck), power tools (most times), and scooters (for a little while), at best, that's about it!
I've been saying by 2035 a Tesla will not be around anymore. All the people that wanted them have gotten them have gotten tired of them and they're breaking down and starting on fire getting in horrible accidents being unrepairable..
Not to mention their horrible resale value. You buy a 70k car that's worth 25k after 4 years because of the fear the battery will go. That's worse resale value than BMWs and Mercedes
Tesla had a customer base, Elon decided being a politician was more important. Now he’s desperate for cash and going to rob the shareholders for $50 billion before it all collapses.
@@chfpontiac5849 The odds will not change by playing the same numbers every single time. Scotty said about 5+ years ago FSD will not occur for Tesla. Elon is a pumper.
@oldtc3615 yeah everyone's making money. The market is going bonkers. Tesla is a failing company propped up by dummies, while he wastes their money. Genuinely hilarious to watch. Please tell me how wrong iam while the company implodes.
This is exactly why it will go up, because most of the news has brainwashed everyone to sell, no one is thinking 10 years ahead and this is why wallstreet will pick up your shares
But it means everything to potential buyers that don’t have a place for a charger at home, which is most people. Condo and apartment dwellers and house renters will all be lost as customers if they don’t have easy charging options. It’s a disaster because most people already have range anxiety.
@jagpilotohio Many condo and apartment dwellers have access to level2 charging. My employer has multiple level 2 chargers in the parking garage for employee use. Since most of my charging this last month was at the office, the over 1000 miles I drove cost me $1 for the few kWh I charged at home last month. 5 years, only fluids needed was wiper fluid.
The competitors have caught up, it's over for Tesla. I was in Mexico and you can buy an electric cars over there for under 10K. Tesla is done...Sell the stock if you own one
Tesla will be bankrupt in a few years, it is inevitable. It was a failed experiment because its EVs never became affordable and performance competitive with internal combustion vehicles.
I work at Ryder/GM plant in Spring Hill Tennessee and UPS in La Vergne and both are cutting hours. I blame home values and rentals as being way too high. We are heading toward a depression. Money Supply 2 (MS2) is -2. In the past 150 years we have had 4 depressions, and whenever it was -2 or worse we had a depression. Good luck guys.
@@dropdroppie1653 Go watch some videos of China's cheap EV, they're like golf carts that roll over when bumped or doing corner slightly too fast. USA safety standards are high, an EV worthy of working here is too expensive, takes too long to charge, and is made of toxic things mined by children.
Spoken what? The entire car business is wrecked right now. Tesla is doing relatively well. Look up any video on used cars right now or the car business in general
I almost bought 10k worth of Tesla stock 6 months ago. At that time it was 285 a share. Its now at 170 a share. Thank God i didn't buy in. Tesla is on the way down. This past winter wounded them greatly.
Field techs to install and repair charging stations are needed at this point. Not engineers, sales people, or high priced VPs. He fired redundant staff, ....like any good CEO of a publicly traded company would, exercising his fiduciary duty. Charging station locations are actually increasing.
I had no idea what to think until he said “these politicians” and at that point my frontal lobe fired right up and I think I might be able to tie my shoes tomorrow morning and actually leave the house.
Lot of things i've just learned today... thank you scotty.. u're not just an ordinary mechanic or in my place, we call em - pomen (foremen). u're more than that.. we need 1000 peoples like u to enlight these creepy world..
Oh I love your teslas! They are so reliable that all I have to do is spend 45k on a cheap one and then every 5 years put 15 k into it and it will last forever, not to mention your like the best by making the environment safer, safer my butt! 😂 To anyone reading this, it’s a joke, these cars are literally only for the rich, I work at a gas station and the people I see in a Tesla aren’t old enough to have enough credit to finance one, wish I had a rich blood line
A friend of mine told me in Austin,Texas they are adding on to the Tesla plant. It looks like a city itself. Musk bought a 140 acre tract of land by Bastrop. He is going to build houses on it for his employees to live and he is going to build an underground highway from there to his plant for them to use to come to work.
Funny how people with little to no Ev experience have the strongest hate towards them. Most of what they think is incorrect. I say this as a gear head who was anti-Ev for years. But I finally stopped being all talk and purchased one to see for myself. I ended up liking it. The one thing I miss and struggle with is no exhaust sound. Which, no exhaust is good seeing as how I’ve lost roughly 15% of my hearing from my younger days racing auto-x and drag racing. No ear plugs, young and dumb.
I drive my Hondas and Toyotas for 20+ years. When they can go that long with regular maintenance I'll consider anEV. However electronics And the EV battery will last half that at best.
@@m1kcan1 was right there with you. I have a 2004 Corolla with 312,000 miles. Keeping it going was adding up. Decided to try an Ev. Battery repair is becoming more common and is much cheaper than replacement. No different than spending thousands over the last 20 years to keep the Corolla going. I still have the Corolla, love it. But I don’t miss the maintenance. Over one year on the Ev and have done nothing. Corolla I’ve done several oil changes, a brake job and trans filter. That trans oil is running $10 a qt minimum 6 qt purchase.
@@whatsay8406 Batteries degrade over time whether or not they are driven. You won't be able to 'fix up' a 20yr old EV when the battery is shot. EVs will ruin the used car market no one will want to buy 10+yr old EVs. Well maintained ICE can run for decades.
The 4.0 straight 6 they ran in Jeeps was bullet proof. OEM garage told me that during cash for clunkers, they had to dose them 2-3 times to get them to blow up.
SCOTTY, I bought a Toyota Corolla new in 2007 and it’s still my every day car. 5 speed manual. It has 135k miles and I’ve always changed the oil every 5k miles. Nothing has ever gone wrong with it. How much longer do I have to wait before I can get a new car?
I own a 2023 Tesla Model Y and know from first hand experience that it is the best car I have ever owned and driven. Charging is a breeze at home for me, so I don't have range anxiety. I don't have FSD and have not tried it yet, but I have heard that it really works well. I do have Autopilot and I use it most of the time. It makes driving stress free and I don't feel tired even on long trips. I can't say the same for ICE vehicles. Honestly, I would rather a Tesla EV than any ICE vehicle. You guys should test drive a Tesla before posting negative comments about Tesla.
Don’t start with common sense….they don’t have that here. The most important aspect of Tesla is that one day they will be 100% self driving and will be far safer than any human driver ever could.
Vandalism of superchargers is a problem. The cable should be with the car, not the charger. Access to the charger connector should be protected mechanically until the charge card is accepted.
The fusion "miracle" was "just around the corner" when I was a physics graduate student in 1968. These days, we are much better informed about "why" it will never happen. (eg. How much Beryllium is needed vs. how much exists.) But.. the physicists assure us that it's still "just around the corner".
I was presented a Tesla as problem. The driver had it down at near zero. Were I work we have nothing other than a normal out of doors 120 V plug in. I charged him 40 dollars for access. He needed 5 hours to get to a nearby town. One hour for maybe two miles.
This is his daily dose of aerobic exercise. Notice the hands and arms moving up and down. Back and forth. The torso rocking and swaying from side to side. Rapid breathing between sentences. I think this is what is keeping him from a heart attack. Rant on Scotty. Rant on.
Scotty, Scotty, Scotty you've been doom-crying Tesla for how many years now? Still, I like to watch these Tesla doom-crying videos because your conviction about Tesla going out of business remains so unwavering despite literally years of similar claims. It just makes me happy.
My mother suzuki italian fiat 1.3l diesel engine burning 2 mm of oil every 10 000km... clocking 22 years 170 000km no issues a part of replacing heaters 4 years ago because in winter starting it up was horendous for the starter...
Why they won't build small module reactors is when thorium decays it doesn't produce plutonium and they need the plutonium to replace the plutonium cores in there missiles
Scotty, I love you and I ain’t buying an electric car.. but don’t bet against Elon. He got distracted with other ventures and is lazer focused again with Tesla hence the cleaning house. Tesla is not failing and cars are not their main long term source of revenue.
Canceling the model 2 was a big mistake. Stock plummeted and then they lied and said don't believe us, we are making a mod 2 in the future, yeah, that's the ticket. Ever notice that from announcement to actual delivery of tesla products is about 5 years beyond when they were supposed to be sold?
I use to work at TESLA AND MEN Them things always Brake down even wen they are freshly NEW LOL!!!% I have a chevy cobalt LT and never had a problem with the engine only problem is the station it keeps turning off lol other then that it works great 156,600 mills
As I said a couple of years ago, Tesla has to decide whether it is just an EV maker or an automotive vehicle maker. You will know when Tesla gets it right when they make an internal combustion engined car as a hedge against the absolute uncertainty of the EV market.
All this fascination with high tech stuff in these EVs. Self parking, self driving, automatic software downloads while you’re driving. All this stuff will eventually fail. I’m currently restoring a 1995 Daihatsu Charade in my little home workshop. The only electronic item in it is the after market radio. This car will be around for many more years.
Buy an electric car, they don't pollute? 40 percent heavier that gas powered vehicles, so we have to rebuild our entire infrastructure to accommodatethis crap! They use more tires than gas power vehicles is there any pollution there? Also if they catch fire, watch out firedepartments can'tput them out! Don't get them wet, rainy areas are bad for electric cars! Cold areas too! Don't tell anybody about these things! Just drive for four hours, charge it for for hours, drive for four hours, charge it for four hours, oh, someone else is charging theirs, so wait for two hours, then charge for four. Unbelievable! People are so stupid!
What about electric heavy trucks? What about the electric driverless trucks? Think they’ll be on the highways hauling freight? No way! Wonder how much those trucks will cost used? Will there be a market for aftermarket parts and repair?
