Credit to Farley for being open about this. I can’t think of another legacy automotive CEO that comes close. He has 122 years of habit, mindset and prejudice to change, and shareholders expecting profit every quarter. Killing the F150 because it’s fundamentally flawed (from a commercial perspective only) is brave.

Ford CEO Jim Farley on the F-150 Lightning: "I totally would've done it differently. I mean, look, we didn't know what we didn't know. I guess it didn't take us long to learn that our internal-combustion-engine prejudice was so high that we hadn't designed the [electric] cars right. We had a Mustang Mach-E, we had an E-Transit, we had a Lightning, and people loved these products. The problem was they were never going to pay the cost we put into the vehicle." insideevs.com/news/788885/fo…

@SawyerMerritt This is stupid. $60k isn’t nothing to most people and they need time to think on that sort of purchase, so it’s tacky for Tesla to do this.

Elon is pretty much confirming that the current $59,990 Cybertruck dual-motor AWD will see a price increase in 10 days. But how much of a price increase remains to be seen.
Elon Musk@elonmusk

@BigImpactHumans @Tesla Depends on how much demand we see at this price level

@OutofSpecDetail Always for takeout. But otherwise, virtually never unless as a last resort, but it where all the emergency gear lives, so it has its uses.

On this day in 2013, we took delivery of our first #Tesla Model S, AND apparently went to see a showing of Top Gun. Does it get any better?

Wrap reveal of our Cybertruck! We worked with the @diywrapclub on their custom wrap program and then put their precut mate PPF on top to keep it looking great. So happy with how this turned out and install was a breeze.

A lot of people have asked if the new 16" screen can be retrofit to replace the 15.6" screen in the Y. The answer is YES! Thanks to @Abstract_Ocean for confirming and breaking down the install! FYI, the 16" screen is $1,320... Video in comment.

@teslaflexx @crz410s The MyQ integration also doesn’t work with (MyQ enabled!) gates. Plus the app is just annoying, I don’t need ads for crappy cameras every time I open it.

@crz410s Tesla includes myQ in the software which is fine for most people. However my parents have had issues with myQ and homelink is way more reliable

I love that I can just go into my local service center and buy a Homelink module & bracket for $250 after tax to install myself. DIY Homelink install tutorial coming soon!

And there’s the issue. Ryanair, famously, doesn’t care about ‘experience’. That’s not a dig, it’s their business model. No flight offers power outlets, yet alone WiFi. They get you from A to B for cheap. That’s it. And they’re the most profitable airline in Europe, so they’re no Spirit.

Starlink Aircraft Terminals only impact fuel usage by 0.3%. It’s literally a no brainer, every airline should be using Starlink. The in-flight experience is honestly incredible

Michael Nicolls@michaelnicollsx

A 2% fuel impact might be true for legacy terminals, but @Starlink's terminal is much lower profile and more efficient.  Our analysis shows that the fuel increase to a 737-800 (which burns 800 gallons/hour) with our current design is about 0.3%.   Also beg to differ on whether passengers want great WIFI in flight 😊

@SawyerMerritt This is Ryanair, literally nobody expects anything different from them, but they’re also the most profitable airline in Europe. They know what they’re doing.

NEWS: Ryanair says it will not install Starlink on its airplanes, citing ‌the impact of fuel costs from drag and the short length ⁠of its ‌flights. "It comes with a 2% fuel ⁠penalty because of ​the weight and ​drag. We don't think ‍our ⁠passengers are willing to pay for WiFi for an average ⁠1-hour flight."

@Karanx_ @scottbuscemi @kchau Yup. Supply chains are a huge headache at the moment thanks to tariffs and other nonsense. Will have more soon for sure, trying to make ‘soon’ the next week or two.

World's most useful rearview camera. 1h15m into my trip, I lost rear visibility. The fender cameras are also pretty occuluded, but FSD still works. Thankfully I'm not enough of an idiot to remove my mirrors, so I can still see behind. Hopefully Gen2 @cybertruck fixes this.

This isn’t something to celebrate. Love it or not, the Lightning was a decent truck, and if Ford can’t make it work (arguably the most forward-looking legacy automaker) then likely none can, aside from pure EV companies like Rivian and Tesla. RAM killed theirs. Cybertruck and R1T are not mass-market in the world of trucks, and losing the Lightning as competition is unlikely to do much to increase those sales.

NEWS: Ford has officially announced that it is cancelling its all-electric F-150 Lightning. Ford CEO Jim Farley: “Instead of plowing billions into the future knowing these large EVs will never make money, we are pivoting.”

In less than 24 hours, Tesla owners in CA, OR, and AZ will be able to connect their cars directly to the @Lemonade_Inc app.
Shai Wininger@shai_wininger

We’re starting to roll out direct integration with @Tesla vehicles, removing the need for a UBI device in our Pay Per Mile product. This makes activating Lemonade Car on Teslas effortless and lets us cut hardware and shipping costs, helping lower prices for Tesla drivers even further. Tesla's API also provides richer and more accurate driving behavior data than traditional UBI devices, enabling us to offer better rewards and discounts for safe driving and FSD usage.

Tesla’s new Self-Driving stats page in V14.2 sort of gamifies FSD a little bit because it makes me want to hit a 100% Self-Driving percentage. It’s killing me being at 99% lol. I’m sure others on V14 feel the same, which will likely increase how often FSD is used overall. Now we just need leaderboards!

@RivianTrackr It was a great article. Basically everything I’ve wanted to articulate, but better written. 2026 is going to be such a pivotal year for Rivian, really hope it pivots the right way (and hurry up with R3, they’ll sell gazillions of those!)
