#2> a fleet of self-driving vehicles that will make their way into the robotaxi service as soon as next year.
So... are we living on the same planet? Does Musk seriously think that Tesla will have solved full autonomous driving, with no LIDAR, and have commercialized a functioning robotaxi service, by next year? This is so far outside of the realm of possibility that it's like saying he's going to Pluto next week.

It's either a lie or psychotic delusion, I refuse to believe he is that uninformed and ignorant about the current state of autonomous driving.

He's used to overpromising and then delivering far later than expected - it's worked so well for SpaceX.
Maybe he inherited Jobs' reality distortion field?

#6Ford has $150B in debt. Toyota has double that.

19 months from now is also next year. And "as soon as" means "maybe". And as all parents know, "maybe" means "no".

Yes but how much of that is current and how much higher is their cash flow? I would expect Tesla's Current Ratio to be dismal by comparison.

In Elon's biography the author mentions that in all projects he was part of he would constantly give far optimistic delivery dates.

Also, have they given any evidence that they’ve thought through and prepared for the regulatory hurdles that a robotaxi service would entail, even if the tech problems were solved?
