You are trying to slice and dice to fit your argument. They make an 18% gross margin on each vehicle therefore each car makes a profit. They made a GAAP profit of nearly $4bn last year therefore the company is highly profitable. That profit is AFTER everything else.

They are not losing money per car, they have an 18% gross margin. This is not from Elon, it's from official SEC filings. I guess having 42bn cash, ergo around 30bn cash surplus is a lie too? OK.

Their sales are nearly 1.7m 2025, more than most other EVs from other manufacturers combined. Hugely profitable on each one. Keep crying and doing your woke political thing. Nobody cares.

I 100% support Tesla and its mission to clean our air. I don't need to like Elon, his Nazi salutes, or him starving children, ever since he got brainwashed into MAGA. The planet is more important and he will fade into the history books. Our planet is forever.

Right. So Model Y wasn't one of world's best selling cars 2025? Profits weren't up 11% last Q3 disclosures? You are the troll but shouting into an echo chamber of other trolls. And the world carries on ignoring you. Enjoy.

Sure no sales of Model Y in 2025. They tanked 1.8m to 1.7m but increased profits. Such a disaster. Numbers don't lie. Some people do though.

I don't think the people that risked their money to make a safer world and clean the air we breath are "Nazis". What have you done with YOUR life to make the world a better place exactly?

Tesla has the world's best selling model. Ford, Honda, etc are abandoning EVs. Legacy marques lose money on every car they make. The delusion is dialled up to 11 here.

That's fine. They are making huge profits and working on their next models. Model Y will still end up one of the best selling cars in the world last year and this. You're clutching at straws.

He never promised to deliver the hyperloop. Or sell mud bricks. The Roadster came out a decade ago. The Semi is working for Pepsi and Walmart. Robotaxis are in multiple cities now. FSD is... nearly there. The robot is advancing just fine. I don't get your problem. You just sound bitter.

If you count things twice that might be the start of the problem. I think you are confusing his ideas with actual stuff. He never tried to build a hyperloop or sell mud bricks. He builds cars and spaceships and is very good at it. You are blinded by the tabloid papers.

It doesn't matter if their sales are down because they are so highly profitable. With other manufacturers giving up on EV, Tesla are set to dominate... except for the Chinese who will overwhelm everyone.

The solution to Trump's cost of living is... eating North Korean style prison rations? At least that will help with the obesity epidemic.

Great! The goal is now to make even the Shaheds uneconomical, as well as free up AA/F16 to deal with ballistic/cruise. Keep up the good work.

Exactly. Trump is such a moron. He makes threats, gets a meaningless 'agreement in principle' for some 'deal', he declares victory and pretends it's an actual deal, then everybody forgets it ever happened because he's moved onto the next headline.
