I think this is why the bigger co's will end Tesla altogether when they get the range thing worked out. Supposedly Toyota has. If you can get Toy/Honda build quality and Tesla range then i suspect Tesla will be at the end of its useful life.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
