    Wow, Tesla laying off more than 10% of its world wide workforce, two Top Executives leaving

    Wasn't it Musk that said the vehicles sell themselves? It will be interesting to see if there will be additional layoffs on top of this at Tesla down the road. The jalopnik article said at one location All front of the house staff were axed, so just the repair people left? Tesla’s global job...

    Anyone like anchovies and kipper snacks?

    Redline oil moves operations to Texas & Tennessee

    Did Phillips 66 buy out Red Line? It will most likely be the same formula shouldn't it. Many large breweries will brew and or package for smaller companies.

    Japanese-made compact FWD SUV, no CVT?

    Not sure on why it has to be Japanese assembled. When I worked for a Lexus dealership the RX350's fit and finish were identical whether it was assembled in Ontario or Japan. Robots don't tend to work better in one country vs another.

    Not sure why you can't see it for what it's worth. Curious if you work for Tesla as you really go to bat for musk. The Cybertruck has been a disaster and is now under a permanent stop sale. Musk has severely alienated perspective buyers. He is being sued after publishing vile not true stuff...

    Wow, Tesla laying off more than 10% of its world wide workforce, two Top Executives leaving

    A big part of it is that Tesla was down 8.5% in just the first quarter vs alot of manufacturers seeing an uptick in sales. Couple this with musks rants and absolutely having to have the Cybertruck made when engineers said it was a bad idea. Then musk said the model 2 (if it's not cancelled)...

    Tesla Cybertruck Hit With Stop-Sale Because of Unintended Acceleratiom Report

    This should be the ABSOLUTE final nail in the coffin for Teslas board of directors to fire Musk. Several folks have even posted that their upcoming deliveries have been delayed or canceled, according to Investor’s Business Daily. I usually take Cybertruck news with a bit of a grain of salt –...

    The Reality of Academia

    I'm hoping to go back and finish up for my private pilot license. I have my night flight, cross country, a few hours to knock off the rust, and my written Test. ALL of those scare me.
