“@WholeMarsBlog @Teslarati @KlenderJoey Saudi Arabia owns 2/3 of Lucid, so inevitable”
“RT @SawyerMerritt: Clip of my Tesla Robotaxi ride in Austin tonight. I took two rides: Ride 1: • 3 miles • 12 minutes • $3.96 for the who…”
“@Model3Owners Limited production of Model Y this year, high volume next year”
“@ElectrekCo @FredericLambert Very strange. Model 3 is designed to have super good stopping distance & others reviewers have confirmed this. If there is vehicle variability, we will figure it out & address. May just be a question of firmware tuning, in which case can be solved by an OTA software update.”
“@AlguireTim @Tesla Haha. It is actually my fav game on Tesla cars right now 😀”
“RT @TheSonOfWalkley: BREAKING: GOOGLE CEO SAYS — ELON MUSK ABILITY TO WILL FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES INTO EXISTENCE IS “UNPARALLELED” 👀 $TSLA El…”
“@TeslaBoomerMama They are contemptible parasites on the neck of Tesla”
“Tesla Model S rated by @ConsumerReports as best car in world for 2nd year in a row http://t.co/F0TpdmDxGg http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine/2015/04/consumer-reports-10-top-picks-of-2015/index.htm”
“@flcnhvy @Sofiaan @Tesla That’s our goal!”
“@teslaownersSV @24_7TeslaNews @SpaceX No guarantees, but maybe next month. Requires quite a lot of incremental testing & code tweaks for different road system in Canada.”
“@technology Our biggest limitation with Fremont is convincing enough associates to build cars when they have so many other job opportunities in the Bay Area! Thanks again Tesla team for doing the hard work of building real products that people love ♥️”
“@robbystarbuck They thought that was a Tesla showroom, but it was actually the Dept of Education. Joke’s on them.”
“@teslaownersSV @SamTwits Once the board was presented with the evidence of Eberhard’s deception/fraud & the dire state of the company, all board members, including those he appointed, voted unanimously to fire him in August 2007.”
“@AdamLowisz @DonutOperator Not sure what the status of Illinois is. A pretty good guide is that if Waymo is operating somewhere, then regulations allow robotaxi in that city or state. Tesla will operate there as soon as we reaffirm safety testing in that locale and receive a license to operate.”
“@billhuang688 @woonomic @VaibhavSisinty I put in all I had, whereas Eberhard, who was worth over $10M at the time, refused to invest a penny to help Tesla. If it was really his baby, he would never have stood by while it starved to death. https://t.co/ZDfYLD5qkL https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judgement_of_Solomon”
“RT @JoNationLive: Picked up a pizza order. As I walked out, an elderly couple was getting out of their new Tesla Model Y. I said, “Beautifu…”
“@Model3Owners @TrungTPhan It took an utterly insane amount of work to move the SpaceX & Tesla success probabilities above ~zero”
“@teslaownersSV @TheRealKeean We have to solve a huge part of AI just to make cars drive themselves. In retrospect, it was inevitable. The road system is designed for cameras (eyes) & neural nets (brains).”
“@abhiyogi Slight chance of Starship flight to Mars crewed by Optimus in Nov/Dec next year. A lot needs to go right for that. More likely, first flight without humans in ~3.5 years, next flight ~5.5 years with humans. Mars city self-sustaining in 20 to 30 years.”
“@justpaulinelol That basically describes SoC 0 vs SoC 1 of our FSD computer right now. Soon to change!”
“@greggertruck How do people keep figuring out that it’s a Cybertruck under the cover!? 😂”
“@DrSallyL @Tesla Coming soon. Lot of cool stuff.”
“@28delayslater @thirdrowtesla Invasive ventilators are for worst case patients. Survival rate at that point is low, as Gov Cuomo has pointed out. Nonetheless, we start delivery of intratracheal Medtronic units in NYC tonight.”
“@teslaownersSV @UniverCurious Electrical & mechanical engineering”
“Model S achieves best safety rating of any car ever tested by US govt http://t.co/W1rZ5ceEVX http://www.teslamotors.com/about/press/releases/tesla-model-s-achieves-best-safety-rating-any-car-ever-tested”
“RT @teslaownersSV: Elon Musk won’t be bribed or bought “Offer me money, offer me power, I don't care. I'll say what I want to say, and if…”
“@ICannot_Enough @thirdrowtesla Explains the sad lack of progress in candy research!”
“@CGasparino @Tesla Exactly, this is total bs. What part of “production hell” sounds like a sure thing!?”
“@TeslaHype @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Indeed, US taxpayers actually profited from the Tesla loan”
“@KristiRJensen @EverydayElon @SjvTesla @GerberKawasaki @thirdrowtesla Exactly! Tesla knows far more about what needs to be done to be safe through our Tesla China factory experience than an (unelected) interim junior official in Alameda County.”
“@teslaownersSV @toadmeister I’ve spent more than half my life in California & love the state. But, frankly, I think CA has the winning-for-too-long problem. Like a sports team with many championships, it is increasingly difficult to avoid complacency & a sense of entitlement.”
“@Erdayastronaut @flcnhvy @PelleBrannvall @Neopork85 @Caspar_Stanley @ErcXspace @MarcusHouseGame @FelixSchlang @C_Bass3d @nickhenning3d @SpaceX @BocaChicaGal SpaceX/Tesla metallurgy & new materials team is next-level”
“@PPathole @JamesWLaw1 @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Getting there”
“Online ordering at https://t.co/46TXqRrsdr will now open at 7:30pm Pacific to ensure no server overload. Presentation still at 8:30. http://Tesla.com”
“@teslaownersSV To be clear, this will affect the price of parts in Tesla cars that come from other countries. The cost impact is not trivial.”
“@Teslaconomics I often do not wish to be me”
“@Cernovich China is operating normally across hundreds of suppliers & all of Tesla Shanghai”
“@ICannot_Enough @rdd147 The funny part about that clown’s analysis is that even if every bit of bullshit he says is true, it still amounts to less than 1% of the value of Tesla and SpaceX 🤣🤣”
“@teslaownersSV @RyanGirdusky @GoodPoliticGuy If birth rates remain unchanged, South Korea will be ~6% of its current population in three generations, with a majority of people over age 60”
“@teslaownersSV @Kristennetten @itsALLrisky @SenSanders I had majority control for the first 5 years or so of Tesla, but car companies need lots of capital, so now I’m around 20% or so, despite putting in as much as I could along the way”
“@Teslarati More software improvements coming”
“@Teslarati Drag Race Times analysis is correct. Also, there’s a software upgrade for Model S coming out that increases peak power by 50HP, so Model S should beat Porsche Taycan Turbo S by a wider margin in 0 to 60 & 1/4 mile races.”
“@EforElectric @WSJ That tweet did take immense effort 🤣🤣 Fair point tho. Powerwall production is now ramping fast. Tesla was cell-starved last year, so we had to switch all lines to make packs for cars, which meant Powerwall production was living off scraps.”
“@Teslarati Wouldn’t read too much into this. Likely to be fewer F9/FH flights, but possibly an order of magnitude more than these numbers in Starship flights.”
“@Sofiaan @RationalEtienne @thirdrowtesla @ICannot_Enough @Hein_The_Slayer @rmattila74 @28delayslater @kimbal @MoWo91 @Kristennetten @vincent13031925 Plaid Cybertruck is what I will drive”

“@arcadester @DR_Ruiz17 @rxTomas518 @OfficialJoelF @Tesla Yes, Autopilot max speed is 5mph above speed limit off highway or 90mph on highway”
“RT @teslaeurope: A new era Launching in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia today 🇸🇦 https://t.co/UyFgilD2kf”
“@teslaownersSV I am pathologically optimistic with time. Have been ever since I was a kid. My brother @kimbal would tell me an earlier time for the bus schedule from school so that I would actually be there on time lol.”
