    That explains it for Tesla ignorance, but what about Hyundai, Chevrolet, Fiat, Nissan, Toyota, Ford, VW, Fisker?

    pretty sure he meant charge up the hydrogen tank .... at home.
    or maybe that's meant as a deflection
    more deflection - but i'll bite, if i could undertand what's meant by, "what about" all them. What about them ...

    They are all sold through dealers, so why are so many people unaware of these cars?

    That’s a lot of wasted time, many minutes driving out of one’s way to the tiny few H2 stations adds up quickly - dozens of wasted hours a year for the average driver.

    Takes seconds to plug in at home OTOH.

    Instead of bluster, put your money where your mouth is as he did. Prove you believe it and place your short sale receipt here.

    I pray your right, but it’s gotta correct sooner than later.

    Ha I live less than a mile from a Hydogen station. So try again. Not a short seller, not even in the market at this time. I like my money liquid.

    Duno .... how long has apple been in business? or Amazon?
    ;)
    oh - i get it now. thanks. Well - maybe prospective buyers ARE aware ... but spend their transportation dollars where there's better infrastructure ... SAE charging versus Supercharging? maybe. Or ... personal choice/style/range/power/handling/cargo area? Buyers speak with their wallets. They balance shortcomings with all the above ... even against aggravation of quality issues sometimes ... which brings the thread back on topic!

    No need to try again. You living less than a mile from a hydrogen station (or not) has nothing to do with magically moving the average person to less than a mile within the rare hydrogen station. And even if that were magically true, would be much wasted time. Still your move.

    Have 3 location within 5 miles. So how can life get any better. The fact of the matter there are 23 new Hydrogen stations being built at the moment within SoCal. So for all the naysayers of Hydrogen, it’s happening.

    I put the rest of my 401k in the brokerage account as cash. So when "the market blows up," I'll pickup a bunch more TSLA at bargain prices.

    We already have that in the Tesla stock thread. It’s hilarious.

    Spoiler: it worked out poorly for folks like yourself.

    i'll stick w/ our original (Roth ira) $10k stock purchase - now worth ~ 400% more ... that's like vegas money ... if it takes a 50% loss over the next year, ok. Otherwise let it ride 'till it hits $50k +. That'll buy a nice 1yr old tesla perhaps - tax free (we have property in a sales tax free state) except for the original $10k that got taxed.
