Being wrong hurt you that much? That’s weird.

But you said “or even parts of Mexico”. Large numbers of components in a Tesla come from outside the US, including from Asia. Not a lot of brands are mass shipping vehicles from Asia to North America, instead they build them here. And source parts from suppliers that build factories nearby.

Rail is heavily used for shipping vehicles from manufacturers that put out large numbers, making it pretty economical and environmentally sensible to ship from Canada, Mexico, and many US states.

If you’re going to lie about your vehicles, you need to make it a massive lie.

I have a note called Random that I use to drop content that doesn’t need to be in a note, it won’t live a long lifetime, just scratch pad stuff. That one gets an entry multiple times a day.

Otherwise it’s whatever note(s) I have for a currently running project. Parts list, decision notes, tests run and their status.

It isn’t normal. Toyota doesn’t ban you from resale, Ferrari does. Tesla isn’t comparable to Ferrari, and drawing that comparison only serves to normalize this lunacy. That’s the point I was making about that. The stans will punish themselves, and I’ll chuckle sensibly at it, but normal consumers getting duped into this kind of BS isn’t acceptable.

They won’t make it to the US market certainly.
