There is only one medical mask factory still in business in the US. Edit: you can read more about the mask supply issue here. There maybe more than one but very few remain and 95% of masks are imported. https://www.washingtonpos

Herd immunity and keeping the total infected at any one time to a manageable level is the end game everywhere. I think the difference you are seeing is a difference of opinion over how extreme the measures need to be to keep the total infe

I would be surprised if GM has more models available than Tesla in the US at any point in the next 5 years. Tesla will have 7 once all the currently announced models are in production.

The dealer network was the auto industries way of not having to incur the huge cost of carrying a large inventory. Tesla solves that problem a different way by mostly only building cars as they are ordered.

This is false you should stop repeating it. The public shouldn't horde masks but that doesn't make it ok to go around saying they don't work. If you have to put yourself in a high risk situation like flying on a plane where

The Taycan is double the cost of the Model S so even if they are the same range under this one use case which is probably not typical driving for many mean the Taycan is over priced for it's capabilities at best.

This is an incredibly misleading article They conveniently left out the fact that GM's proposed battery for their 400 mile car is double the size of the battery Tesla currently uses to get 390 miles. GM said that they will offer a 20

My layman's understanding is it depends on the underlying reason for the legal judgment. When fraud was involved it is supposedly harder to discharge a judgement in bankruptcy.

South Korea tested on the order of 10,000 people today alone and found roughly 300 positive cases. The USA has managed to test around 500 in the past two months. I'm extremely concerned this isn't being treated with an appropriat

MSRP is exactly the same as Model 3. The fact that they have to offer them 40% off MSRP because no one wants them isn't a good thing.

False, you cannot buy a Model 3, or any Tesla for that matter that doesn't have leather. There was a planed cloth seat for the model 3 but they scrapped that.

The Chevy Bolt is priced the same as the Tesla Model 3 and has less 'luxary' features. For example if you want leather in the Bolt that's extra where as it is standard on the 3. Other things the Bolt doesn't have at th

Surgical masks are meant to stop droplets and large particles but aren't rated to filter airborne particulates. These more or less protect people from sneezing or coughing directly onto one another. The next step up from a surgical ma
