I take RJ at Rivian over Musk. Musk needs to go, he is hurting Tesla more than helping.

Chrysler News: FCA Sends Merger Proposal to Renault
Best thing that could happen is for them to merge, global recession hit and they can then finally close all the inefficient factories and the French workers will revolt and hell will happen on earth!

GM News: GM Delays Diesel Launch; Expands 6.2 V8 Availability
At least GM has not had an Exhaust gassing leak into the main cabin issue that Ford has had with their Explorers. Amazing after the last few years, they still cannot seem to fix where or how the exhaust gas is getting into the cabin and gassing the owners.

Saw a brand new Gladiator from the local Jeep store. Had it's 90 days paper in the rear window. Fire Engine Red. Not bad.

Wife has great pallet and while I love all things pure, I also know that she starts off with a recipe and tweaks to taste to ensure delight of the taste buds. I have never tasted Vinegar in the dressing, but it still is yummy on a fresh salad. Sour Cream I love so in everything is fine with me. I do know that the local Greek Yogurt place she has picked up plain from them and made it with that and it is yummy. I will say I also love all things cheese and the Feta Cheese in it is AWESOME! Just like Greek Fries here that are covered in Feta Cheese. YUMMY!

Just saw this at the local store, as I was getting in after taking a picture, a little old lady came out with her grocery cart. Amazing.

Tesla's Stock Plunges
I am honestly surprised stock holders have not sued and demanded Musks Head on a platter. https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/tesla-stock-price-stats-put-stock-plunge-into-perspective-2019-5-1028228512#shares-have-been-cut-in-half-since-musk-s-funding-secured-tweet5 WOW ?

I agree that I can see China buying them, but they will keep the Tesla factory here just let everyone go, automate the rest of the place and bring in their own people to live in dorms. This would give them an access opening to the US market. Then as they finish up the Chinese factory start production there for the local market.

What Are You Listening To?
LOL, I also was exposed to Led Zepplin later in life, grew up on Big Band music, played trumpet and piano in the past, now just listen to others more talented than I was. Stray Cats and Depeche Mode were my jam!

Audi News: Audi TT To Bow Out For An Electric Successor
This is totally understandable, the Avengers / Iron Man movies have made peoples interest in electric Audi's rise. I read somewhere that they were getting requests to buy versions of what Tony Stark was driving. Yet if they think Marvel movies will drive profits for them, I think they lost a seal in that engine some where.

Turns Out Apple Did Plan Bid for Tesla
Would agree with this as their auto's are very dated in the looks department. Yes they have leading edge tech in the power train, but the style is truly affected by public emotion and right now, what other OEMs have shown are exciting people more than Tesla at the moment is. Tesla really needs a Style update, yet Musk implies they are running out of cash, so I doubt we will see much change.

GM News: GM Decides To Shrink Maven's Footprint
While I am not a fan of using Uber / Lyft / Taxis, I do get their need and appeal to those that would rather use an App to get a ride from A to B. GM if it really wanted to change peoples perception of GM auto's should Market and push using the Best of each model GM has to offer to show off how great their auto's are. I am sure they could find some way to use this as a marketing write off to at least break even showing everything from entry level to luxury level in the Maven family. At least I would hope so.
