>do not put any faith in timelines

• mikeash 10y ago
  In general that is totally true. They'll say 6 months and it's really 12. They'll say a year and it's really two or three. And I have no confidence in their stated objective of producing 500,000 cars in 2018. But when talking about the current production rate, that's hardly a "timeline" and doesn't much involve guessing the future. I will admit that these sales numbers don't really look like a missed timeline. It is definitely a theme with these companies, but doesn't seem to apply here.
