True

@elonmusk Sorry Elon, not everyone is, wouldn't trade my old gas hemi dodge for 5 of your EVs🤠

@elonmusk 100% agree and this is why the movement started years ago and those who have stayed on the battle lines should be rewarded Godspeed

The markets tell you otherwise. Had EV’s going back to Diesel. Every major European manufacturer is ditching EV’s at the cost of Billions to their share prices, they all understand it is not the future and will remain a niche market. The Uk is taxing EV’s out of existence as of 2027/28

@elonmusk Europe needs decent EV trucks for this to work

@elonmusk IMO the solid state batteries promising 500-600 mile range and just a few minutes to charge, will accelerate the move. Still see some hurdles: Electricity shortages may require nukes to cure. Price differential of ICE vs EV needs to be substantially reduced.

@elonmusk Bullshit. Show me the plan for building 100s of nuclear power plants to compensate for the lack of fossil fuels. Western automakers will build whatever the public will buy. To assert otherwise is to be ignorant of the fundamental economics.

@elonmusk This great news for silver holders!

@elonmusk Never giving this up. The Tesla has its place but it’s not a replacement for displacement.

@elonmusk Everyone is tired of fuel prices rising on the whims of fuel companies! @elonmusk we need charging stations in rural Oklahoma!😉

@elonmusk When gas dropped to $1 per gallon about 2000 in the USA, dummies started buying Suburbans getting 12MPG again

@elonmusk The day of horse and buggy ended as will combustion engines.

Free Cone Day is here! Come celebrate with us at a DQ location on today by getting a FREE small vanilla cone 🍦

I'm old and set in my ways, EVs are a technical marvel and I can see a future for them. In my case, one would probably work well for me as I only drive about 1200 mile a year, mostly round trips of under 100 miles. However when I do drive, the sound of my HEMI reminds me of my Youth!

@elonmusk That’s not an option for many due to charging issues in high rises and parking options in densely populated areas.

@elonmusk Can we please have a Tesla SUV??? 🙏🙏🙏🙏

@elonmusk @Elon when solid state

@elonmusk Perfect. No argument there. Make them cheaper as normal people can't afford them without getting into debt...which puts strain on families.

@elonmusk And as EV replace petro-fueled combustion autos, that replaced horse and buggies, so shall EVs be replaced one day too.

@elonmusk For most people the EV is just a better car, there are not many people that would happily go back to an ICE car once they have owned an EV, I know that a generalisation but I've had an EV since 2019 and I wouldnt go back.

@elonmusk And the only 2 manufacturers in Europe who get it and put in some true and decent engineering effort are BMW and Tesla with Giga Berlin as their eurpoean hub. They follow different strategies, but from the german OEs, BMW is the only one taking it really seriously. Tesla anyhow.

@elonmusk Shame that Tesla has such a plummeting market share.

@elonmusk Every European manufacturer is cutting back their production of EVs. Why?

@elonmusk I don’t know Elon lot of vested interest out there still pushing an agenda. I mean we have made the shift. It so far not many others in our wider circle.

@elonmusk That’s fine. I will buy an EV when they are safe, I have a place to charge it, they have enough range and I can easily open the doors from inside or out when the battery dies. We will get there one day.

@elonmusk @JessePeltan It’s a fair bet the old “Big 3” US automakers will have to be bailed out again—Honda passed them by years ago.

@elonmusk Time to load up on Tesla stock

It’s time to dance! Get it on tournament action with Bonus Bets from FanDuel.

@elonmusk Tesla didn’t just join the EV shift — it helped define it. True leadership shows early, before the vibe reaches everyone.

@elonmusk EV's are surveillance vehicles. For this reason alone, I would NEVER buy one. "Classic" privacy respecting cars from now on.

@elonmusk Great reason to build Nuclear Power Plants!

@elonmusk True. But to be fair, those accelerating markets don’t seem to be the primary places where many EVs are produced. Everyone needs access to lots of rare earths. Crazy that whether it’s oil or electric, we still have to dig in the ground for difficult-to-gather materials.

@elonmusk You need to check how much diesel it takes to generate enough energy to drive an EV. The diesel fuel take a car further Besides, nobody’s garage caught on fire when diesel or gas

@elonmusk Then make the EVs make sense. Lighter, fewer doomed to fail “features”, manual switches, better batteries (lose lithium), better charging infrastructure, build capacitance in the form of nuclear power plants.

@elonmusk infrastructure unready and rare earths used, often minded by slaves be damned! Here it comes!

@elonmusk EV's are great...on the golf course or for running to the grocery store or post office. Until the batteries are greatly improved and the cost per unit comes way down, EV's will remain a niche vehicle or a second vehicle here in the US

@elonmusk Still waiting for Tesla with solid state batteries and 500mi+ ranges

EV engineers design cars for EV engineers, people who probably live in an urban area and have a garage in which to charge an EV, the means to pay for an EV, can afford more tire replacements (A function of battery weight) and typically do multiple short commutes. This shouldn’t be a zero sum or binary solution.

Not because they aren't better, it's because that would topple the Evil Oil Empire, and that would bring down everything else. We allowed the "elites" to paint us into a corner, and convince us we're stuck. There's nothing keeping us from inventing a car with power generating turbines in the rear wheels and Electric motors in the front powering the car, and have the batteries constantly charging, but we stop and spend however much they tell us to on gas tank refills and battery charging. It's never been about what’s best for us or the planet. It's about obtaining and keeping power over the "Deplorables".
