LOL  We live in  the land of 75k F150’s. So no, 100k for a mind warping vehicle isn’t crazy. And you can get into a Model 3 with 300+ mile range and free supercharging for 45k lightly loaded.

What you just stated doesn't guarantee the stock goes up.

Tesla actually has to sell the cars and generate the earnings to justify their share price.  Their market cap is substantially higher than car companies that sell 20x as many cars as they do.  Tesla couldn't sell that many cars in 2021 even if they had they miraculously had the demand for it.

Tesla also has credible competitors in 2021 unlike in prior years.

I typically do a lot more road trips then most people I know multiple times a year that are in the 600-700 mile range. Depending on my vehicle that's typically going to be 1-2 fuel stops and typically 2-3 total stops for bio break and/or food which I try to blend in with a fuel top-off so typically 2 stops if traffic and timing works out good but sometimes 3-4 total.

The software in the better EV's make it fairly easy to plan around stops like that to locate a charging station you can plug into while you go to the bathroom, stretch, grab some food, bang a hooker behind a wendys dumpster, etc. That doesn't take into account you can also use a combination of apps and google maps or waze to plan too if you're doing it with something on the lower end of the EV market. Charging availability has come A LONG WAY since even 3-4 years ago for making long distance traveling convenient for EVs.

People downplayed the damn Volt (not Bolt) because they said the range was so shitty but GM built it because the data for a commuter vehicle suggested that like 95% of people drive within that shorter window <50mi so they could do a parallel hybrid design to cover everything and the majority of the time the only time the engine ever kicks on is CPU commanded for internal maintenance.

I've done several 1100 mile straight through trips over the last 2 years, my stops are literally 3-5 minutes, the time it takes to fill the tank and maybe piss.

I have no interest in sitting on my ass at a station going nowhere for 15-60 minutes charging.

With that said, I think and EV would be great for commuting if you can charge at home. I just would use my other vehicle for trips.

When I moved from WI to TX I drove 1400 miles straight through in 21.5 hours. No fucking around. I want the ability to do that in my vehicles.

I doubt it. Battery tech is going to get better but that'll most likely result in smaller, cheaper packs rather than ultra long range. We could easily make ICE cars with 1000 mile range but nobody wants the tradeoff of larger tanks.

Make sure you’re thinking in percentage terms.

Fwiw, TSLA may well be a great and successful company, however, it’s in a huge bubble built on speculation and momentum.

Been years ago but one time Tesla advertised you could drive cross country using the super charging stations. They had a map. Leave CA on I-10. Then in San Antonio had to go up I-35 to Dallas and get on I-20. I-20 East to Alabama and then back down to I-10 to go to the coast in CA. Houston apparently didn't have any.
