SPIED! More Proof Of Tesla's Model 3 Ramp Up? Aerial DRONE Footage Gives Us Clues...

SPIED! More Proof Of Tesla's Model 3 Ramp Up? Aerial DRONE Footage Gives Us Clues...
I have to say this is some particularly good spy work right here. A curious spy wanted to get a better idea of the Model 3 situation at the company's Fremont plant. 

So, they took matters into their own hands. Using a drone, they captured video of the vehicle staging area to essentially count the Model 3s on site. 

I've got to applaud their brazenness. 

That said, the following two clips are the result. 

I watched the clips and though plenty of folks on the Reddit thread seem to be able to count each of the Model 3s, I do have a bit of trouble distinguishing what's what. That said, have a peek for yourselves, Spies.

What do YOU think? Is this MORE proof of a Model 3 ramp up?

Oh my...there are some really, really 'enthusiastic' Tesla fans out there.

If Tesla goes t*ts up, many of them may need some serious group therapy.

Uh Oh ....

Sorry to rain on anyone's Christmaska/Kwanzaka but the astute minds at "Chasing Alpha" have observed that Model 3's are stacking up at Fremont NOT because production problems have been cured, but rather because the M3's are defective and require "Rework"...

"...Musk's Four Blunders - Let's review the biggest blunders. This list comes from one of the brightest lights at Seeking Alpha, Contributor Technology Equity Strategies. I happen to agree with each item, and TES gave me permission to expand on them here.

Blunder 3: Cutting Corners on the Model 3

Every other automaker subjects all new parts to an intensive production parts approval process (the so-called PPAP). Every other automaker requires an extensive production line validation process for new production equipment. Every other automaker conducts a year or so of beta testing, in all climates and conditions, with professional beta testers, for a year or so.

But not Tesla. Because Elon Musk knew better. This disaster is only starting to unfold. Tesla now has hundreds of Model 3s stacking up in parking lots at Fremont and elsewhere. Why? Almost surely because the cars are still lacking something. They are unfit for sale...."

You clearly missed the large amount of deliveries going out. Reports show cars are being delivered in droves.

So large amounts of deliveries are going out but not getting into hands of owners. Is Elon just driving them around on transporters to make it seem that all is well? I suspect the answer is YES.

@MDarringer - They are getting into owners hands. A bunch of people at TMC confirmed getting their vins and there is already someone posting a delivery video. There is going to be a bunch of deliveries before end of the year.

@TheBuey TMC couldn't have any bias could they? TMC couldn't be on the payroll could they? NAH! totally believable. Just as believable as the #MeToo old hags claiming Republicans showed an interest in them. #FakeNews

Wow, #Fakenews huh? Take the tinfoil hat off, I'm seeing these every single day now. I'm sure most are Tesla employees, but they are for sure going out to regular people now. I could have mine mid-Jan if I wanted the larger battery.

Ask yourself : why would a company produce a product that has a buyer waiting in line and stick it in some parking lot, but not deliver it? There are no reports from the Tesla blogs of Model 3s rolling into customer garages

Actually, there is. Check the latest news. Before Tesla only delivered to employees, the large amount of cars is due to the ramp up. They are now going out to non-employee customers en-mass.

During WWII the Allies made 100s of blow-up tanks that from the air looked like the real thing. Could it be.........

I did see one for the first time a few days ago. Looked a lot better than I thought it would, but the panel gaps seemed a bit suspect.

Maybe Elon will shoot them into space and do more condom shaped contrails in the sky that idiots think is an alien invasion or an EMP explosion.
