Having worked at Uber, I can tell you that most people vastly overestimate how many Uber drivers are working at any one time. A medium sized city like Seattle might have a few hundred at peak hours.

There is a limited scale to any taxi service, at least until it becomes cheap enough that the company can afford to have lots of cars sitting parked and idle for much of the day. Otherwise, the rush hour peaks will be less convenient and affordable than having a private car.

Or like the solar roof, battery, swap, Cybertruck best selling vehicle of all time...you know, things people said wouldn't work, and didn't.

Elon has a good track record, but he has some duds in there too.

Didn't Tesla start as an electric car maker?

Pretty much. Has the air of the oil&gas funded "journalist" piece where he ran circles in a parking lot then wrote about it suddenly running out of battery, and was disproven by logs lol

Any day now
