CNBC Melissa Lee really dug into him about adding a solar roof to his Utah personal home[1] and claiming it as revenue (100% actually) of Nikola.

Related, apparently he claimed in an interview that the company HQ had a large (3 MW) solar installation, and it hasn't. Why lie about something so inconsequential that anyone can find out is false by looking at it?

Because when the entire firm is a house of cards, with one lie after another, adding another little lie won't change anything. I doubt he can even keep track of what he lies about.

I can't help but think about this clip whenever I hear that the CEO was their only customer
