Includes probable gas savings*
Tesla:
A few stats:
- In 2023, our owners avoided approximately 20 million tons of CO2e through use of our products
- The more products we sell, the faster we achieve our mission—hence affordability is key.
A Model 3 RWD lease in US now starts at $160/month after probable gas savings
- With FSD Supervised enabled, the chance of an accident is around 5x lower compared to the US average in 2023
- Our Supercharger network was 100% renewable in 2023 (achieved through combination of onsite resources & annual renewable matching)
- To further EV adoption, we’re opening our network to other EVs across the world
- We deployed a total of 14.7GWh of energy storage last year (125% increase compared to 2022)
Cost of Maintenance - lowest according to Consumer Reports, beating Toyota and Honda.
Last Tuesday night, battery storage became the largest source of supply to the California grid for the first time, discharging over 6GW
Alleviating the Squeeze - Tesla FSD
The Senior segment of the population could very well be the next huge wave of drivers purchasing Teslas, primarily to retain their independence and Teslas for its FSD, safety and efficiency of ownership costs.
While at mom's in Hawaii last week, a guy from SunRun knocked on the door and said depending on her utility bill, he could install solar panels and a Tesla powerwall for free. She was napping and I didn't want to disturb her but told my brother who will be moving in with her.
My son had worked for Tesla at Santana Row but also did energy sales for Tesla at Home Depot.
I had already shown mom the FSD video driven by long time FSD advocate
@WholeMarsBlog around Redwood City, CA and she was stunned at how it stopped at a stop sign and avoided a cyclist. Also showed her Optimus holding an egg and Neuralink....she said, "What's that guy's name ? He's a genius!" ...of course meaning Elon.
Having gone through 5 years with former in-laws with dementia/alzheimers and dad with ALS before they all passed, there's a few things I learned.
I was enrolled at USC's first year's Master's program on Aging Services Management but decided at that time it wasn't my passion---maybe it's time to reconsider and reapply! (My kids asked, "Mom, how did you get accepted?" ...oh yee of little faith
I had wondered what was worse, having your mind intact but no body function control (ALS), or a diminished mind (alzheimers) but still having your body intact.
Because of having first hand experience with the above diseases and all of the doctors, nursing homes, etc, neither is better.
What I did learn:
1. The elderly want to remain as independent as long as possible. The FSD and summoning features will help them and keep them safer in their cars, as well as others, on the road at a fraction of the cost of Uber drivers, etc.
2. No waiting on family, friends, public transportation, rides...not sure why many are so impatient...maybe because of their bladder or nap time or wanting to rush back to their familiar routines.
3. Quantity of life becomes a higher priority than quality of life. When the doctors at Stanford all suggested it was time to let dad go because he was on a vent and food peg, he opted just to remain alive as long as possible. Over time and thanks to Good Samaritan docs, where he was eventually transferred, before a private nursing home, dad was able to eat solid food again.
4. Easy plug-in handle to recharge car. No gas islands to trip over or car maintenance issues....tires, brakes, oil changes, etc.
5. EV tax credit if applicable and HOV lanes. No penalties, fast track passes, tickets, stuck in traffic.
6. Will save on utility and gas bills, possibly pushing them to credits which can help all on fixed incomes.
Did you know that when collecting social security, if you make too much money with a side hustle or another job, you have to pay back social security depending on how much you make? It's another way to suppress the 62+ community's income.
Once you turn 67, you can make as much money as you want without a penalty.**
Check with your tax consultant as this is not tax advice.
It's startling how much good Elon has created without realizing the longevity and expansion of areas utilizing technology.
