Which Elon project has failed?

Model 3 still a bit rocky, eh?

Sure. Not a failure, though. I see them on the road almost daily. And I’m in a nondescript suburban town far from the Bay Area.

I'm in a suburb outside a city in Australia and see half a dozen Teslas when I walk to the park with my kids. It's absolutely mind blowing how far and fast they've reached.

Ha. If you were looking to win the "farthest from San Francisco" game, I think you just did.

It is amazing, isn't it? There's no guarantee that TSLA will still be around in ten years, but I bet their cars will be, along with the industry that was forced into existence by a non-incumbent player.

Well technically this one wins: http://www.whereisroadster.com

It'll outsell every luxury sedan in the US in its first year.

If that kind of outcome gets you implicated for failure, BMW must be distraught as it looks at those dwindling 3 series sales figures.

We will know the results of the Thai rescue operation shortly when the lawsuit comes to an end

The lawsuit is completely unrelated to the rescue operation, and the rescue operation was never a Musk project.

FWIW all the people trapped in the cave were rescued.
