Tesla warns that a federal probe into whether it exaggerated the range of its cars may lead to a ‘material adverse impact on our business’::Earlier this year, Reuters reported that Tesla had created a special “diversions team” to avoid dealing with complaints from customers about their vehicle ranges.
True. I also disagree that he’s an idiot. He’s just an evil/asshole person.
Why not both?
I’m not a fan of Musk but dumb luck will only get you so far. He’s been successful for too long to be a stumbling idiot. Maybe a successful market manipulator that never got caught, or a great salesman for his ventures, but I wouldn’t use idiot to describe him.
And the “he started with millions” doesn’t cut it fully either. He’s the richest man on earth, surely he had to bet on the right things more than once.
He just never should be at the helm of a company structured like Twitter was. Apparently Tesla built their VP level around Musk with great success.
He’s a more techy Steve Jobs. And a complete asshole
