The Tesla Conspiracy - was Jack Rickard shot down in broad daylight?

Let's talk a little bit about the tests these guys are crushing? I'm surprised and familiar with a lot of the problems they've had along the way and I'm very impressed with how Elon Musk has solved them, but in the last two years. For months it has been clear that they are simply crushing it and knocking it out of the park. In June they delivered 95,000 cars for the second quarter, which is a surprising number considering where they came from, the Tesla Roadster and the entire circulation was 2,400 cars. They were a boutique automaker longing to become a production company.

Some of you are concerned about the high level of executive turnover. I'm not at home. At the center of any successful business organization is a detail-oriented, detail-obsessed person, an authoritarian obsessive-compulsive disorder. and if you don't know who is in your organization, I would suggest it be you and working for those people is exhausting and disruptive to life in a very strange way once you work for Elon Musk or Steve Jobs or someone like that. Nobody locally here learns to dislike that life and that pressure and that Eagleman type that manic personality and so you tend to leave it at the first opportunity and spend almost the rest of your life trying to find a position where you have the same thing. sense of mission and purpose and it drives the emotion that you got there, but you're not worse off, you're just a little melancholic about everything you do after that because it doesn't have that magical thing of being in a march to change the wall and that's what you get with a line of months now, the part you get when you leave is that everyone knows about this if you worked at Tesla and they work for you at Musk and you ask if we have a position open for you.

The answer may be no, but come, sit down, have a cup of coffee, let's talk, if we get along, we will prepare to do whatever it takes wherever we have a position and by the way, which I mentioned, we will pay you double. yes you will still do it and so you don't lose sleep and spend your time praying for these poor souls that used to work for you with musk, they had many difficult days, but they are fine to move on from that. I haven't heard of any of them who haven't moved on to a position of greater responsibility and a lot more money because everyone loves them beyond that, they are crushing it on so many fronts that I can't at the new marina.

Tesla just announced a three-gigawatt battery pack. This is our 15 kilowatt battery pack. They have three gigawatts. Well, the 1.5 gigawatt bidirectional inverter, which is what we're doing here. What does that mean? That's nothing they've been around. making better large battery packs and for utility companies, why is this so important? But it's a big deal because it's about sixty percent the size of the packaged ones and the cost and installation of this is directly aimed at installing new P micro gas turbine Complaints and here's the economics. In any cost comparison, you get the backing of 3 gigawatts of Tesla or a field of them, like at the San Diego civic gas power facility, Los Canyon, to build the big plans, you get it by a third. most of the time for less money and when it runs it responds to changes in your system load in milliseconds, not seconds or minutes, and when you are running a natural gas plant at its peak, you are using natural gas, you should pay for the battery The package is free energy, well what nonsense to say, well actually it's not because the whole thing about plants at their peak will still work when you need it and one of the problems in charge management they have utility companies is that at 3 a.m. they still have to do it. keep nuclear weapons running in coal power plants, you can't turn them off so they are producing too much energy and habits, in some cases they pay people to take the power at that time of day so you can fill your Las Batteries are obviously charged during peak solar hours, certainly in California they have excess power, but in a 24 hour cycle they never have to pay for the power that goes into the battery.

This is huge. The Shanghai plant, one gigabit, Elon Musk. You are amazed that this has gone up so quickly that you will find yourself in the embarrassing position of having deliberately set a target date and this is what makes it impossible to meet to push your people to put them in as fast as they can. operation as quickly as possible and their success is measured by the degree to which they fail, how are you going to be able to publicly address the fact that these guys met their target date? That means he failed as a manager and didn't establish such an aggressive vote.

Enough of a deadline for the Shanghai factory and face it, it's just a fact of life, the Chinese have a better work ethic and less bureaucracy and that plan will be up and running by the end of the year. The other surprising thing he's going to do. find out is that your production costs on the car are going to be a lot less than you thought, you're counting on some savings, they're double that, so these guys are crushing it on all fronts atrociously, so you're not an idiot. It's as if the amazing Motor Trend magazine last month named the 2013 Tesla Model S not the part of the year, but the ultimate car of the year, meaning the best car of its 70 years.

They celebrate this year's publication starting in 1949 from the beginning. of its brand has been the car of the year originally a 1949 Cadillac model 62, it said sedan and from there it has been a big deal ever since. A little known fact. I've never been a car guy, but if I wanted to know what the best car ever built was, I'd go where the car manufacturers are, and by chance, having been an editor for 30 years, I admire successful magazine franchises and Motor Trend me. has shown one, they just own it, now everyone makes the car magazine and most of them.

I have eight for Car of the Year that doesn't matter, everyone is number two Motor Trend is the only one that matters this is where young people deeply addicted to automotive porn go to get their stuff their cars guys love cars that eat fajr breathe cars and if you could get a job at Motor Trend magazine you are at Crown Central for cool cars they just own it and they just publicly stated that the Tesla Model S in their 2013 Roland Marlowe not the P 100 D is not ridiculous a model s 2013 is the car of the year that's cool now let's talk about the stock market my grandfather encouraged and motivated me to invest in American telephone and telegraph stocks when I was 13 now it's not like that most of my grandparents didn't like that gave me AT&T stock, he convinced me to take my money from mowing the lawn and buy shares in the dividend reinvestment program or AT&T stock because once you entered that program you could contribute up to $3,000 per quarter directly with them and this was back in the days when broker fees were a few hundred dollars, but you could invest directly in AT&T and the dividends they had paid for over a hundred years went directly to buying more shares, of course, when they broke up AT&T 20 30 years.

Later I continued selling shares of telephone companies thinking that I had already cashed in everything and I would discover that I still had more buried somewhere in the bowels of the system, there were seven baby bells and the original company and then there would be some of the dividends that had been reinvested and I didn't even know it and I sold those shares for a year and a half. I couldn't finish it all and it just didn't disappear, so I've been playing the stock market for a long time. Throughout I have been short I have been short in stocks my nature is to be optimistic and that is why I like to support people who I think are going to be winners and my position in technology has allowed me a lot of inside information and an idea of who will be a winner and who will be a loser and some of the flashiest companies with some of the sexiest things.

I can look right at them and tell you, Walking Dead friend, and another one that just doesn't look like your If I had a chance to take a look at it, let's say man, I think this selling books on Amazon thing is going to be a deal. I know it sounds silly, but I think they can sell all books, in fact, I think they can sell anything in one that was mine. position in 1996 and thank you Jeff, please suicide, I enjoyed every damn dollar, a profit involved in them many times over. I had been a little taken aback by Tesla's record levels of short interest all along, but I started taking a look at it in the last six months.

They were over all the paintings They were over all the insurmountable obstacles that I was sure they would overcome but they were legitimate obstacles that most entrepreneurs cannot make the transition to running a large corporation and there are many barriers that the automotive industry is not what it is. Most of you think it has nothing to do with how much parts cost or how much labor costs, it actually has nothing to do with fixed costs being so large that the variable cost, the marginal cost per car, does not. It matters, the only thing that matters is that you can predict how many total units you will sell to reach your break-even point, not by building the machine that builds the machine;

It's a very complicated business and one of the interesting things is that people think GM, Taylor and VW are Unassailable, they spend season after season year after year living off their ability to predict how many units of a specific model they can sell five years from now. and they are very good at that, except for one problem if they don't meet their debt if they are making billions of dollars it is of no use, one big mistake and they are bankrupt and General Motors went bankrupt, don't you remember, in 2008 because of a crisis credit, there was nothing wrong with cars, there was nothing wrong with them. a lawsuit over the car they can't qualify people for loans and their numbers came out wrong and people have forgotten yes the government intervened yes the employees kept their jobs you understand all the GM shareholders didn't accept that haircut They lost all this, their shares became worthless and a year later, Jim has a lot of money to do another initial public offering of shares of this unit and all the GM shareholders are now not the ones that were there before the bad news of the Car business, guys, it's hard work.

It's a very complicated business and you have to be able to predict the future. It has nothing to do with your margin on the car. I've seen people talking about how much Tesla makes on each car. You know, you can calculate it if you know. how many you sold you can't calculate it in the future without knowing how many you will sell so it's a very difficult business but that being said Tesla overcame all the big hurdles, passed all the tests it's winning and has always had a big short status with more than 20% of their float, which is an abnormally high and unusually high amount against them, but they reached the end of 2018, they exceeded five thousand per week, they mark their success, they are achieving it and throughout 2019, the Short sales are rising now, they made losses and they had a disappointing quarter in the first quarter and that went away with these distorting tax credit subsidies.

I've been against them all along, they're not free, as soon as Tesla loses something they just cut the price of the car they go to the manufacturer you never get them you just think that doesn't happen as soon as the tax credit goes away the price of the car Low the manufacturer got that credit all the time it's a scam, you thought you got a tax credit, you didn't get anything, but a lot of people absorb that tax credit until the fourth quarter of last year, the first quarter of this year, you qualify for the Full $7,500, but since that event and the very low stock price it would have been a fantastic time for the shorts to sell the Tesla-sharing device to cover their short-selling pocket, the difference and go home with the money , honey, mommy's hair, shoes for the baby, and they earned around two million, two million shares and it went from 24 million shares to 43 million since then, when we overcome all the obstacles, when everything is going very well, they send to Europe, they ship to China and now we are at a stupid level, a short sale, what is happening is complicated. hard story to understand right I made some grass I ran some numbers I wasn't happy with them I put them back I ran them again Yeah, it's probably closer, but I have to organize my thoughts before I make a video about this actually like 24 One year old titty, news anchor, television personality.

I may have some sales there, but I've been a writer for a long time and developed a big following when the Internet was created and a big following when Eevee were developed. and I have exactly the next thing I want right now, believe it or not, but I got most of that as a writer, not as a video personality. It never occurred to me that I was cute on television, that vanity never hit me, but I can write. of improvised and printed words, of course, no one reads anymore, soI thought I would make a blog to put my thoughts in order and then make the video.

The August 10th blog put a little thing on Twitter that I have like nine followers or something, this is almost like an inside joke and I get some reaction from some people, but Tiny took off and the next thing I know Zack and Jesse made a video on my block and now here's the hard part he did. They better do it better than me. Frankly, it was a better performance than what I was going to record starting this afternoon. They got one hundred and sixty-five thousand views. About twenty-five hundred comments. They're just better than me. this video, so I'm going to post your video.

They have a video on my blog. How to be able to make a video in your video. We'll show you right now. It's me and Zack. I'm Jesse and now you're taking a deep look, you know, sponsored by our friends at better route planner, you know bo is working hard every day to make sure you can find your way home in your Evie and write down waypoints, so if you want to pick something up along the way, yes, and it works seven million times, it's work and we are brought to you by echo, where you can get new designs every week.

I'm using an old one, you're using a new one. Yeah, I mean, if you've never seen them before, that's them. We're all new to you, so head over to Eco Wear Us where you'll find new designs every week, they're all carbon offset and we plant a tree for every purchase, and you know, we have up to three hundred trees planted. I'm feeling pretty fired up, yeah, okay, let's get into this, Jesse, this is a

conspiracy

, folks, oh boy, Catharine

conspiracy

, low volume, what are we talking about? We're talking about Jack Rickard and he wrote a blog post called the Tesla Conspiracy or I'm a Dead Whistleblower, so who is Jack Record?

Well, Jack Record owns and operates all of the TV engines and a fun fact: here you can see what's happening in his shop on his live webcams. Look what's happening right now. Well, he's been building and converting Vs for decades. and as he puts it, we basically stopped converting the Vs before we got to the early adoption stage. Basically, he was at it so long ago, doing it before anyone knew what he was doing properly. You've probably forgotten more about solar PV battery electric motors and car conversions than most people will ever know, so when you talk about a topic related to EVs, I usually try to watch it and learn, so who has a YouTube channel and although the takes are usually long and wordy, they pack a very informative punch with information. this is a guy who really knows what he's talking about, he's been making electric cars for years before you could buy an electric car, he was converting electric cars so people could enjoy exactly an electric version of their favorite ice cars and let's go.

We discuss in depth some of the highlights of his letter and we recommend that you read his entire letter, so the link is below to get Jack started, in the case of Tesla, the car and the company if you remove all the other possible causes. What remains is the answer and I have the increasingly uncomfortable feeling that all is not right with the world, so what is this conspiracy about? So Jack starts by laying out some of the facts that you've probably heard on this channel many times. before model three one Detroit News Magazines twenty-eight awards Car of the Year also named Car of the Year by Popular Mechanics Automotive Excellence Awards March 2018 Auto Express Car of the Year Car Magazine 2019 Design of the Year 2018 the Tesla Model 3 finished and again and again and then of course 2013 was quite surprisingly named the Tesla Model S car of the year in the motor trend with the surprising omission that since 1949 there has never been a car like this.

Wow, and then as we've been talking about at the Show Motor Trends named the 2013 Tesla Model S the best car of the year, the best car of the year in seven decades of publications naming a car of the year every year and Jack talks about this fact because in itself this is amazing because The Motor Trend is paid for by advertising and Tesla has never spent a dime on advertising so this alone is pretty amazing. Yes, that's part of the setup. Tesla cars are amazing and he continues with the setup that Teslas are the safest cars. and talks about how recently, as we reported, Nitz, a cease and desist letter that we talked about on the last show is kind of a government attempt to limit what can be said about a government-administered, funded test. public funds and I I mean that's exactly what we were saying on the Tesla Time news is that Tesla is just trying to report what Nissa tested, they're not making false claims about what Nitsa tested, they're just telling the world what Nitsa and Nitz tried is like a gift.

I'm not saying that Jack goes on to say, so my claim is that Tesla makes the best automotive vehicle on the planet bar none in every aspect, including safety; It is simply the best automobile ever built and I would challenge anyone to prove, even partially, that this is Not so, I mean that there are very few, if any, defects in the Model Three, which is why the connector is turns on all televisions. It has largely stopped converting ice cars into electric vehicles, which a long time ago was our only reason for living and Tesla was largely the reason for the model. 3 at $40,000 is a better car than I can make at $40,000 so his whole life and everyone who worked at TV TV converted ice cars to electric and he basically stopped doing it because now it's cheaper to buy a new one. electric car than converting a nice car where you already have a car and all you have to do is put the motor and batteries in correctly.

It's cheaper to just buy a fantastically new one than to convert it. Jack goes worse, it's a kind of one-sided launch, we covered the news of many different electric cars and in particular hundreds of press releases from VW that were never actually cars and the conclusion was that it just doesn't matter Porsche and BMW. They were the only ones who had what was adequate to compete with Tesla and they didn't have it, everything else didn't matter and couldn't matter and yes, the horses that Taikan will launch this September 4th and they will sell 30,000 or 40,000 of them and they still won't matter Tesla is simply proprietary and at this point most of its battery technology and the cost of its supercharger network its online sales model over-the-air software updates and much more put it so far ahead that the other manufacturers are still announcing the next Tesla Killer targeting the 2013 Tesla Model S issue.

It's 2019. I don't even know how to say it better. So how I act tells the tale, so I think I'll let you see for yourself. That's fantastic, yes, continue. I'm at the point where if you don't have the Tesla logo on your car, you're not electric and it doesn't matter to the point that we're working furiously on things like an obd2 port adapter. for the Model 3 or reverse engineering Tesla batteries, not all batteries Tesla batteries for solar energy storage I have a half-finished Cadillac Escalade conversion hanging in the air in an elevator where it has been hanging for a year, but the blue sky for Tesla is essentially unlimited they can sell everything they make and make everything they sell starting at 360,000 units and maxing out at 78 million.

They are 0.46% of a $2.3 trillion market and to my biased judgment it seems like they already own everything so what you are saying there with The 78 million cars they could sell is basically the market for cars of the world because essentially, the way he sees it and, to a greater extent, the way I see it, there's virtually no reason to buy any other car right there, the closest competition hasn't. I've even gotten close to a car they made six years ago, and no car we've seen that can be bought today comes close in terms of what the Model 3 can do well, so it goes on to say that if someone doesn't I won't do something.

Very quickly in the future, all cars will be Tesla hyperbole. I get weak in the knees publicly repeating a prediction I've been quietly making for years. It is so amazing. Everything I can harvest now is ridiculous, but you won't go. believe in the big names and huge corporations that are inevitably facing outright bankruptcy and dismemberment in the very near future; no government will be able to save them hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of lost jobs, economic disruption and dislocation of unparalleled proportions. Office furniture available for six cents on the dollar. dollar, not a reorganization, but companies like Eastman Kodak Sears Kmart that could not go bankrupt and have already disappeared.

Image of GM VW Daimler, the biggest, the best. I think you know this is the kind of thing we've been talking about on this show. I've been watching the show for a long time and a lot of these talking points seem eerily similar to how these big companies that seem so insurmountable, so solidified, so impossible to go away, really don't have in any tangible way any kind of competition. Regarding what Tesla is presenting well, the other thing is that these great companies are really good at one thing, which tells you that they are really good companies, that they never show a sign of weakness and that they never come out as directors executives like God.

I don't know what to do with the company this year, they don't do that, so when they come out, you say, "They seem so confident," so you say, I guess they'll be successful. a plan, look at the story, that's not what happened right, so Jack goes on, let's look at the oil business. We're currently at 100 million barrels of oil used every day around the world, 20 million here in the US at $55 a barrel, that's about five point five billion dollars a day, that's another business of two trillion dollars in the global market as the percentage of all cars that are electric grows, the demand for oil will decrease completely. 50% of all oil goes to road transport, that is, two. point seven five billion dollars per day and for every day that future is delayed is another two point seven five billion dollars, it would be a gain of two point seven five billion dollars if the adoption of the electric car could be paralyzed by one day, the increase The growth of the automotive market is, as I said, inevitable and unstoppable, but for every day that is delayed there are billions of dollars at stake, literally the clock runs at 1.9 million dollars per minute alone in that part of the oil used by automobiles and I think We're getting pretty close to the conspiracy, it's getting to the heart of the argument and what I love is that it's exposing something really important that we allude to a lot in the show, but it's giving some really concrete numbers here, which are that if you're in the oil business and you agree, so every day we can stop Tesla is 2.75 billion, then you start to see the scale with which they will want to stop it, and the funny thing is that There is nothing that can stop it, there is nothing that can stop it at this point, the cat is out, all of us, anyone who has been inside a Tesla knows exactly why it is the best car in the world and why it would never go back to use oil.

You know, even if I don't really care about the planet or the environment because there are many of you who have messaged us directly and said I don't care about the planet or the environment, but I love Tesla because it's the best. car in the world the cat is completely out of the bag there's no going back riggan oil that's a great point we don't just drive these cars because we're hippies and tree huggers you can take that out of the equation if you want and you still win the argument , let's go to what it says next.

Texaco bought the entire Onyx nickel metal hydride battery business from General Motors with the patents, of course, allowing this battery chemistry for camera and laptop batteries, but they specifically refused to license it. to anyone in larger sizes suitable for electric cars and that continued until the patents ran out by then it didn't matter that the lithium battery was booming but it absolutely delayed the development of electric vehicles for many years Stanford ovshinsky inventor of this lithium battery Nickel metal hydride died in 2012 at the age of 89, still deeply bitter about what General Motors in Texaco, later acquired by Chevron, had put to his baby's greatest potential use and the use for which Schinsky specifically developed it never noticed, they just bought it and filed it away.

Does it make sense to spend hundreds of millions of dollars toacquire a promising technology and then put it aside and not worry at all about selling any products? The automobile has hindered its rise throughout history and that's just a small example of where oil basically was. Oh, it looks like you have some patents for an electric car that uses some new battery technology. We will pay you basically any amount of money to acquire that right. then not using it for electric cars and you can see how excited Schinsky would have been when he made the patent and he had all these interested buyers and it's like, hey, he's going to get involved in the discharge right of the industry, you know, GM is going to do it. use it and yes, and GM will make an electric car of course, and can you imagine their phone calls?

Hey GM, it's been a year and I'm wondering how you're doing with a new well made nickel metal hydride battery, oh hey you sold it. You sold it to an oil company. He must have been very confused for a few days. Jim, I guess maybe Texaco is going to make an electric car. No, I knew, I knew, yeah, I knew that wasn't going to happen and that I. I think we were just starting, this is this. I think we don't even need to say anything else and you can probably put the pieces of the puzzle together, but let's move on here, so Jack shorts, don't behave this way, sell high, buy low and pocket. the difference is if they are in this to make money these shorts continue to double and increase their sales as Tesla is successful at this point you have a company that is increasing its production at an exponential rate and its revenue at an exponential rate. the best product in the entire market with unlimited demand in a market that it completely owns, just 0.46 percent is the ultimate growth stock in the ultimate market with unlimited room to grow.

Oh, and did I mention they can raise any amount of money they want? like any time with three days notice, their last three capital calls took less than a week and were oversubscribed in all cases, they raised more money than they asked for, so we have exponential growth in an unlimited market with capital unlimited ready and waiting to investWhat kind of bets against that pot? The concept of them being implies the assumption that they are trying to make money in the first place. What if they had no desire to make money? So factor in the more than $2 billion a day in oil revenues and then think about this Tesla company that's basically ready to explode with the best.

I mean, it's the best product on the market in terms of Vivi. All these things here and why the shorts are so shorted. We already talked about billions. of dollars every day that oil is making from their oil business and they know that every day that they can delay Tesla is literally billions and billions and billions of dollars so it looks like the shorts are specifically targeting Tesla to drive down the value of the stock to make it harder for them to compete properly and don't we have some kind of government body that would make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen?

Yeah, yeah, okay, we called the Securities and Exchange Commission, but like Jack says. but apparently the SEC can be bought and while they investigate, strike down and litigate Musk's tweeting style, what is starting to look like the largest stock manipulation in the history of the United States of America is happening as we speak, is it It's possible that they don't know? In a word, no, it is not possible that a stock market scam of this proportion could be occurring without the express and direct participation of the Securities and Exchange Commission charged by law with preventing it.

Absolute corruption absolutely corrupts, to misquote a phrase, this level of actions. manipulation coupled with a funded and targeted disinformation campaign could possibly set Tesla up for failure, and at five point five billion dollars a day, simply delaying the inevitable is very profitable with a total expenditure of ten billion dollars, the payback period is less than two days because Basically, a Tesla too short, this amount only costs ten billion, which for oil is nothing, it is more money than you can imagine and yet it is enough to say yes, very short, as short as we can exactly and that's the scary thing. it's like this is the conspiracy here, they are trying to prevent Tesla from being successful, they are trying to push Tesla to failure just through these means and not because of any problem with, like you know, marking the markets, it's not like if the market didn't do it.

I don't like Tesla, right? It's not like they can spend ten billion dollars making a better car. That's not what they're trying to do. They're trying to get more oil out of the ground, so they just have to reroute. somehow get this to slow down to get more oil out of the ground, so Jack continues. I still see articles explaining why batteries produce more emissions than gasoline cars, all funded by industry and advocacy groups that sometimes offer three less lead directly. To the oil companies, highly paid disinformation campaigns are an absolutely established mode of operation for these companies, why would they hesitate to manipulate stocks to foment fear, uncertainty and doubt and who in the auto industry would call them out?

GM and Texaco conspired, there were no unforeseen questions or the people who say, oh, I don't know. think that you wish that would happen it's like you don't want that you wish it wouldn't happen right that's what you're trying to say when you say it wouldn't happen you're thinking about what kind of world we live in where this could happen so I wish it wouldn't happen well and It's sad but it's happening and that's a lot of money and when you get that much money a lot of things happen that you wish didn't happen unfortunately and if you study history you'll see that it happens over and over again, it's just happening now and it's not history, it's real now so that it's hard for you to realize that, oh, we're in the story right now, yeah, we should wrap it up.

Jack says the following four-point-three-trillion-dollar combined annual market between cars and oil, a paltry $10 billion in spending, not investments, and 32% short interest suddenly makes all the sense in the world; It looks like oil companies and automakers don't stand a chance. to lose this they really have no way to win it a man has them totally surrounded, outnumbered and outgunned Elon Musk and I think that's the perfect summary, I mean it's really true that you have this guy and I know you don't No I want to make it sound like it's just him, you've got everyone working at Tesla and they're working hard, yeah I won't, so you've got Tesla basically completely changing an industry, completely disrupting it, okay and we're just watching.

From the beginning, but it's so clear, it's so absolutely, unquestionably clear that this is the direction that the auto industry needs to move in at this point. You know, as more and more people see the Model 3, that's the only thing that's really holding it back is the exposure, so a lot of people have no idea what Tesla is, who it is, and if they've heard of Of that, they've heard enough FUD to make them think I don't want this. I'm going to continue. Living my life the way I've been living it, I'll still go to the gas station and I'll still get oil changes and I'll still have to pay extra money because they have to remove the water pump for some reason to fix the timing belt, that's a pretty good one. spot.

We ran into a guy the other day when we were filming something and he said, "Hey, he's one of those new Teslas, I hear they're really confusing and hard to drive." It was like where did you hear that? It is the simplest car in the world to drive. You don't sit in it, hit the brake, put it in Drive and drive it. This guy then proceeded to get into a car that if it was in the wrong gear and he started it it would just start flying backwards like that, that's something that could happen in your car, it can't happen in mine, I can stop somewhere instead of my car, forget to hit.

Park, forget to put it in park. I can jump out of the car, the car will automatically know to park it correctly, it won't leave, it won't pin me against a wall until I die, it won't do any of that. that I can leave it in my house, I can take it into the living room and play a game because I can do that and everyone in my house won't die from carbon monoxide poisoning; The opposite doesn't happen with the car that The guy just got in and drove off with, it's the simplest car in the world and you might be thinking right now, well, the car companies should watch his show.

Zack and Jesse know it's over for them, so why do they keep making this short circuit? stocks, but here's the thing, as Jack pointed out, Tesla has 0.46 percent of the market and to get to a tipping point in most markets you have to get to about two and a half percent, so which from their perspective, they consider that this is going well. We're still fine folks, it's half time and we've held the other team to a fairly limited number of points. If we can get back there in the second half of this game, we can pull this off, that's what they're hoping for.

They hope we don't get to the tipping point where it becomes a household thing where everyone buys an Eevee so this is where you guys come in mmm we can make this happen we're so close all we have to do now It's get butts and seats, spread the word, we need to make sure that message gets out because there's so much fun out there, there's so much misinformation that people don't even allow themselves to experience how the people we run into are having so much fun in their heads. . they're just like I don't think I want to get into this it's like they're from a different planet it's really like you've met someone from the Spanish Inquisition as soon as you mention this electric car thing people get put off and it's sad because it would be great to have people excited about this and there are some people who can get very excited about this very quickly and those people are generally young and extremely open-minded people. just know that's a great point if you're having trouble with your friend or family group, find the eight year olds in the group and have them check the car because then they'll get it right away and then of course they won't test it on you , but they will travel with you and then spread that enthusiasm with everyone around them because they get it right away and you don't have to untangle them, wash them well on all things.

You have to brainwash people about a car with an internal combustion engine. There's so much brainwashing that happens throughout your entire life, from when you're a kid to the point where it's like yeah, when you have to make sure you check your oil. and to check the fluids and take it for maintenance, the other day I heard a story about a young girl who was driving with someone in a car with an internal combustion engine and she had only driven in a V before and when this car with an internal combustion engine was changing . She put it in a higher gear and, clanging, turned to the driver and said, "My God, is there something wrong with your car?" That's what we need, we need that to become the new reality where if you hear something like that in a car, you're like something's wrong and there was a period of time where we were just doing our road trip in the Tesla Model It was working correctly and the funny thing is that it was working well, it wasn't working very well, it was working well, it's such a different world. and we really want you to help people experience it and hey, I know not all of you have an electric car and I would really recommend it if you've been listening to us this whole time and clearly understand what's going on.

About that, you get into an electric car and this is the good news. I have a good news. People who drive electric cars in general are some of the nicest people in the world right now. I do not know if it's true. In the future, that's fine, but something in the world has happened and we've gotten to this point where all the nicest people in the world are driving electric cars. I remember when I was a kid and my mom told me, it's okay. If we get separated at the zoo today look for a woman with a baby stroller or a dog and go with her don't go with anyone else unless it's a police officer that's what they told me because that was going to get me a safe place, I'll let you know now, if you see someone in an electric car, they're very, very nice, they're a good person.

I thought you'd say if you get lost, if you get lost, yeah, find someone,car, right? Yeah, and I want to thank Jack because I appreciate all the work he's done over the years to educate people about how they can convert cars to V and get solar power and all that cool stuff, and then keep writing. fantastic blog post and you should check out his website. He has blog posts on pretty much everything you can imagine doing with V's really cool stuff. Thank you so much Jack for sharing this with us and I think your conspiracy is true, right?

I don't think you are crazy or crazy, this is actually what is happening, we have to wake up to it, we have to make our government respond to what it should be doing because it is outrageous that we have an SEC that is allowing this. It will take place when we all know, if we look at the facts, that that is what is happening and even beyond that, we should have a government that considers climate change to be the crisis, which it really is, it is a climate crisis, it is the larger. problem we face as a global society right now and I don't think we've ever faced such an existential threat since the Cold War.

I think that was probably the first time humanity said oh, hey, you know what? Of us could die like tomorrow and I think today we're looking around and thinking we could all die slowly, one by one, basically from the equator outwards and like hmm, but not enough people believe it, not enough people that they don't agree with that and what happened so slowly happened so slowly and there's this, I guess there's a lot of money that really doesn't want you to believe who will fund the studies to basically apply for you and who will put out sales ads. the same thing that will destroy us all I don't know if it's almost like a conspiracy thank you very much for joining us in this in depth see you next week Zach Jesse you are my heroes was that I I must tell you that I am not that good, you make me look much better than I am, but some comments, of course, make twenty-five thousand comments and 2,300 of them are from idiots and that's why you don't get a hundred and sixty thousand views and we're not maintained and with that and we don't have that energy in that enthusiasm In fact, some might say that we are long, tedious and boring, well, if you don't know anything about the subject, I would say yes.

They are tedious and boring, but not everything is an accident, we don't want people whose IQ is less than twice their range once in our videos and there is a very good reason for that, they want to talk to us and they want to comment on it. and we from the beginning had a propensity to attract groups that I can't be in the room with, that I don't want to know anything about. I don't want to hear anything about it and they are serious people with a deep-rooted belief that beyond unity there is victory. and interview systems are a great idea and they have an even better idea of ​​how to make this perpetual motion work and they would like to tell me about it, but they want me to sign a confidentiality agreement first because if someone steals their idea, they can.

I don't live with it and it's always a really stupid version of putting more energy on and off and you wouldn't believe the conversations I've had with people who come to spend money and want to spend the day telling me that's stupid and four. Minutes later, I push the check back onto the desk and tell you guys to get out of here, take you to the parking lot. I can't do this today. My head won't do that. The other group, our Willie Abbot. Willie, certain environmentalist people who love. forest fairies and nymphs and little people in the forest a kind of worship of the earth decided to become atheists but they needed something to replace that so the trees the trees are good the snails the orders are good everything that is good in their world and They mistake me for being one of them.

I am here to work day and night as a co-creator with God in perfecting the most beautiful artistic and technological expression in the universe. There are no delusions of grandeur here. I don't need any of that nonsense those people don't do. anything, they spend nothing, they defend things and demand that other people spend their money to do that. On the other end of the spectrum there are some really smart guides who can go into your garage and change the world. I'm not a little. By far, there are hundreds of thousands of these guys in the country and they're not trivial, maybe they're not standard, maybe they're a little eccentric, but they can change the world.

Go back to every first episode of television, the last ten minutes, which are a cause for joy. the 1957 Porsche speedster now in electric version I thought it was important to show you a little bit about how the car actually drives and what it's like to live with it and talk a little bit about some of the issues surrounding electric cars, apparently it's timely today rock obama has asked on television that every American family change one light bulb from incandescent to fluorescent and I know everyone is applauding because I'm not my father installed fluorescent lights in our house in 1959 this is 2009 this is a fire sword flashlight uses the latest in cree MCE LED was made by a guy in his garage in Oregon thanks to Wayne Johnson good job by the way it's a work of art this thing puts out 3000 lumens these LEDs last 50,000 hours and it's about 1/3 more efficient than a fluorescent bulb In the lab they are already demonstrating around one hundred and sixty lumens per watt, which is double what this flashlight will put out.

You want to change the bulb, change it in the right way in the meantime. There's a lot more at stake here and I think some of these people understand that we're shoveling loads of money overseas right now to people who don't really like us and I have to tell you that I'm not very fond of them either and we might be facing some climate changes that will make life very uncomfortable for many people and I'm not talking about our grandchildren. I know there are a couple hundred thousand Wayne Johnsons with garages where they can make flashlights and there are a couple hundred thousand records out there with shops that can make electric cars I'm not going to ask you to change a light bulb I want you to go change the world the difference between Barack Obama and me because I already know you can do it I'm graciously Not a single thing about our mission has changed, so what I discovered is that if I am long and boring and technical and only occasionally mention Donald Trump or the warming Globally, I can make almost all of these people leave by leaving me. with the guys who are pretty smart, pretty motivated, my story can motivate you to join me in perfecting creating and creating, and what is a greener, better, more efficient, more elegant, more successful planet.

We don't need many tree huggers. and people in perpetual motion copper foil helmets to help us and with gratitude I give all those guys Zack, Jesse and Galileo and the whole team who are very enthusiastic and live to get more viewers, they just want clicks for the advertising that we make. I don't do advertising and your video is super credible by the way. I'm not kidding. They do it better than me. I'm not going to present anything about Tesla here that is as good as what they did. I'm a fan. Now you know we'll probably support you on Patreon or whatever we're on, we love you guys Holy Smoke and I officially give you a shout out to the viewers who commented on your video and thank you many times for the 2,500 commenters.

Half of them have never been in a Tesla and don't think electric vehicles are the right idea. Lost in Space. Another group loves the idea of ​​Tesla, but they are quite a bit better because at $40,000, that's too much money for them to ever own one. It's like a chanted mantra that used to make sense. It no longer has it when I bought my Tesla model in 2013. The number I wrote on the website was one hundred and seven thousand five hundred dollars. It is an elite car that most people cannot afford. It's a $40,000 car that you can actually buy a model three, four or thirty-five thousand, that in theory you could still buy one.

The average price of all new cars in the United States is now more than $37,000. You're chanting a mantra you got from a couple of years ago as if it's still true, it's not, I'm sorry I never thought I'd say this, but $40,000 isn't that much for a car. I grew up forever, bought my first new car and some of you will be stuck with used ones. cars for a long time, good news, Tesla Motors lasts forever. Tesla batteries last forever and there will be plenty of used cars, but for a while their value won't go down very quickly, which is another surprising thing: the value of the Nissan Leaf. crashed and Tesla used car values ​​are trying to hold on, so the price of the thing has some amazing finance and stock market theories that would form a whole different class, like sheet metal elements. copper and tree huggers, but more financial myths and wolves.

Sir, fantasy people have competence in something they have no idea about, as some of the comments were just unhinged. I'm trying to cover the ones that might seem to have some merit and many of them told you that was the best program. They've never done it, but it's gotten more views in the neighborhood, so I completely agree with Tess. Well, a few things came up in the comments that I really agree with and the most important one, well, they have one about being fit and Finish, this is another leftover deal. They had that problem for the first few months.

Exactly to be a meme and people sing it like the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I had a very early model on February 3, 2008, the man of 18, I don't know what. I'm looking, but my spaces are fine, it fits me well, my finish is fine, the doors work well, the windows work well, the paint looks great and even Sandy Monroe, after noticing fit and finish issues, three months then look at a model again, my friends too. I've guessed I was wrong, they fixed it, it's gone, this is on par with any car ever made, so they're singing spare news about fit and finish, the area I'm quite critical of on test turf and some of you new ones.

For us, I think I'm just an enthusiastic Tesla fan. In fact, I have been one of its oldest and most successful critics and one of the most important areas is this concept of repairability and right to repair. They have excellent diagnostics built into the system. It will automatically and deliberately, for no reason I can imagine, not allow you access to them. They have parts in model 3 that are coded with serial numbers in the MCU. You can't just change the transmission. They have a full process for a $5,000 process. to inspect a repaired salvage car to certify that you know the standards after spending it and having been certified, they may mention to you that they still don't allow them on their superchargers, you will never be able to return a salvage car in a super truck due to your fear of the fire, so I think Tesla's entire approach to service is flawed, although I have had good experiences with our st.

Louis Tesla service center and they came several times to Cape Virata did repairs right in my driveway and the nicest guys at Bunch have been around and are very knowledgeable about what they were doing but the salvage car situation is important because It is up to the brand to have tribal knowledge. There is a lot of information out there about how the car works and how to fix it, and if cars can't be fixed and put back on the road, that's a big depressing factor for the recovery costs insurance companies face when they total a car and that adds up to an astronomical insurance charge for the new cars we have now, as I predicted five years ago would be the case, and it's very expensive to insure them now, so I think the whole Right to Repair concept needs to be completely rethought. and support for people who repair and maintain cars, learning how cars work and about the ability to repair the car and get it back on the road if the damage is minor enough to allow that to happen .

It happens and I'm criticizing Elon Musk for this. I don't even think this was his thing. In fact, at one point he announced the opening up of sources not only for patents but also for automobiles so that people could do whatever they wanted. I think you've had some bad advice from some lawyers and whatever advice they've been giving you hasn't worked for you in several cases since then, so Elon we put the lawyers in another building where they have less access to you and they take your head off. . of your right ass to repair is important for the future of Tesla and the Tesla brand, what you are doing is not in your interest and that is what I will have to say about it, what else came out in the comments.

It was surprisingly better stuff from people who have clearly never been in a will, never been in an electric car. I did not know that the debate was still continuing and, by the way, the debates that are not still continuing,these are I just lost people dazed and confused, but it was enlightening for me and educational to read the comments on Zack and Jesse's show, now you know, and say a deep prayer of thanks. I don't have to put up with any of that crap, yeah, so let's admit that the world audience of Zack and Jesse and Galileo and so on, we want certain people to watch television and for them two hours of technical information is not really long or boring and they have the pause button and the speed button. they can control all that, but I need people who can go into their garage or their workshop and make things and have an impact by showing what they've done to their friends, neighbors and family.

The commercial message is no longer work and only demonstrates. An example: can you really move the planet a few millimeters to the right? We'll do that and when we get them on the victory lap on everything, then we'll move on to electric vehicle batteries and specifically Tesla batteries for solar. storage and that's where my head is these days and that's where we're going and we're trying to get people to adopt some of these concepts to innovate in the solar energy storage space and therefore our regular viewers and the we have all. We need and have had for several years, but they are a little different and don't just write things into the ether for people to look at.

It's a little pathetic. What is happening on the Internet is like a plaintive cry for attention. I suspect that given golden retrievers will love you to death, you don't need strangers on the internet to validate your life or give you affection and a golden retriever there, they are automatically the most loving dogs that don't exist. If you're not so huggable, pick up a cat, we have a couple of shopping cats. I came in, kicked one of those emails and we loved each other. It's a kind of distant, tough love, and that's it, but genuinely. and sincerely thank you Zack and Jesse.

I envy your enthusiasm, your youth and your energy. I envy him and I wish it was done by people who don't really know me and I think he did a better job presenting my blog than I did. video, so I haven't bothered to try, I just concluded yours in this probably the longest, but hopefully not the most boring, video we've ever made, because by including your 28 minutes of discussion about our blog , I think there is something I am deeply missing. in the money markets on Tesla, I don't think it will slow them down much, it certainly won't take them out or make them fail, and I can tell you that all the negative short selling or stories about the search are on the blog.

The alphas just sold out, they are not releasing them at the moment. I guess maybe after a few days of blogging, maybe that will go away and they can come back, but right now they're kind of slinking off into the dark corners where they came from. They came, what can you do about this situation? keep in mind that sunlight is the best disinfectant all these scams and schemes in the minds of men in the minds of governments depend on the fact that you are not aware that they happen in those dark places where sunlight does not arrives, as soon as you turn on the light on them, the activity ceases, they slink away to other corners and immediately get to work on the next nefarious plan, so you don't have to do much if you want to promote the why I bought a Tesla, that's a thing and if you want to make a profit, if you can't afford a Tesla, buy some Tesla stock and wait a year or two and you can buy all the Tesla cars you want.

I haven't paid for any of my Teslas yet and that's just like you so that's my advice but you don't have to do much except don't listen to nonsense and spread the story and this is what's happening when you see someone posting nonsense or some assembly on the topic briefly, ask how much all companies pay. I would like to know. I think you'll find it's a trivial amount. I don't think these people are getting the millions of dollars right. these things I think we're talking hundreds of dollars maybe dozens of dollars how cheap will you sell your soul and they dry up at that if they're really doing that and if not they just start fighting nonsense at At what point do you know they're people without home, unemployed and schizophrenic, you won't get much benefit from that, it will be interesting to see because the short game doesn't last forever, if Tesla is successful the stock goes up.

There is no limit to short losses and eventually that temperature will double, at which point Tesla stock will skyrocket far beyond what it deserves due to the clothing of the short position, but this short position is not the normal one, It is not driven. by investors and is not driven by people seeking to profit from a company's accumulated fortunes. I think this is being spent to encourage a delay in the inevitable day-to-day decline in motor fuel use and it is an interesting play, but ultimately it may succeed in doing its job of delaying, but ultimately it won't. will have such a big effect on the adoption of electric cars.

Also among the many comments from Zach and Jesse it is simply evidence that many people have very high opinions and very high opinions of their opinions without ever having put the button on the car seat they don't know what they are talking about because they don't know what they are talking about. are talking about have never been in the car and that's kind of a function of the number of cars sold and shown to your neighbor, friend, idiot brother-in-law or whatever, that's the process where you actually choose to stay with us, there will be more Eevee TV, you
