The launch and delivery of a
The launch and delivery of a couple of models a month or so ago seemed to be somewhat of a public relations and marketing scam. Especially with the one owner with a picture of a model X in his driveway and two model S's in his garage (like this is common place).
Have heard that anyone that wants to order one now is looking at mid-2016, being very optimistic. What does Tesla do, change the model year to a 2017 then? What happens when you want to build a high volume unit, with this infastructure how do you service thousands of cars with no dealers. Are you going to have thousands of Rangers going to everyone's home? Won't happen, have to have a better infrastructure to service any massed produced (under $50K model). Look for a sale, or cooperative cross-over with some existing dealer network to service and sell a mass produced vehicle, won't happen with the infrastructure of the model S or X.
