- uptown 13y agoI'm a huge fan of Tesla, but GM/Chrysler wasn't just about the vehicles.

I truly hope what Tesla is doing becomes the future of the American auto-industry, but the nation was in no position, at that time, to facilitate that transformation in a way that was logistically, economically, or politically acceptable.
