TBH, I never really thought the Model Y would sell significantly anywhere else but California, and maybe Europe. Now I have check if that's actually my Tesla when I go anywhere like the supermarket etc. It's definitely lost its most unique car on the road title

I was at my local mall this weekend and the Tesla store was packed with people ordering new cars. My son didn’t want to leave the CyberTruck, he loves the racing game.

The hype is still going strong…..

Do you mean for the Cyber Truck, or Tesla in general? If you are referring to the CT, than yes, it's still going strong. If you are talking about Tesla in general, if this was 2020 I would 100 percent agree, but this is 2024, the hype is long gone

What I said has absolutely nothing to do with the stock. The Model Y selling in large numbers and being one of the top sellers has nothing to do with hype, it's because it's a freaking amazing car. As far as the stock, I'll get back in as soon as the time is right, so I'm still a Bull, always will be one. Selling it made me a ton of money, I'll just buy more and make a ton more

So, we are all living in the costal states. I was in Louisiana New Orleans last weekend. Didn't see a single Tesla during my visit, just a few trump flags lol. Gas was also less than 3 dollars
