Of course. Just some of it is what I'd call 'stupid' greed and 'gross' speculation. Would you say it's a good buy or reasonable price in the 230 to 260 range?coboss said:There is greed and speculation in all stock, that is what the stock market is after all, a casino.
So is the down side. If you don't understand that another auto maker could easily build a competing car, then you aren't seeing the bigger picture and the risk to Tesla's future. I certainly hope they reap the gains from the market they are helping to create...I just have less faith that they will.coboss said:However, once you understand that Tesla's business model is not merely making electric cars, but totally dominating the electric car infrastructure, I'd say they are going to be around for a long time. The upside is huge.
Personally, I like Ford's approach to their plug in Focus. I don't ever see them pushed or even advertised. Production seems to be well under their capacity to produce, in a more wait and see position while remaining more focused on profitable areas of their business.
The risk is *more* real for whatever car you're sitting in. :coboss said:The fire risk is *more* real in gasoline powered cars than electrics. There is simply way more potential energy in a tank of gasoline than in a bank of batteries.
Seriously, a real comparison needs to compare fires and lethal fires per car or mile. Last I checked most gas tanks don't completely cover the bottom of the car and for crash purposes are relatively well contained.

Agreed. I support buying electric cars for whatever reason *except* for the greener-than-thou types.
