"The old Union Pacific doesn't come by here much anymore..."

HAHAHAHA, So true!

Prolix is real.

Unlike a sizeable number of news sources these days, at least they DID get to the point in the end! When did you last see a news item from ANY major provider that got to the point in twenty seconds... it takes them longer than that to say goodnight!

@@PiefacePete46 CBS consistently produces 20 second sound bites. This was a fluff piece that was expanded to waste an extra 90 seconds. 90 seconds that could have covered any number of topics like updating everyone on the war in Ukraine, various UN resolutions, the fact that DW documentaries do a better job than they do of producing news, etc. Nope, this was probably a paid ad spot for Tesla.

Yeah because nobody is buying them. I waited 6 months for my RAV4. There are no lots of that car anywhere.

It sounds like people are noticing, so the station asked. Is it because there are more cars or because the CyberFridge is so eyegrabbing?

@@keeperMLT I'm pretty sure it's because of Tesla, we've all passed car lots that dealerships use for overflow, people have never seen so many Tesla's in one place, I've haven't even seen a cyber truck in person yet.

egg on the haters face. hahaha. they all thought the Teslas are abandoned. little did their tiny bird brain knew it was already sold tesla to be delivered to their new owners. Haters gonna hate. Losers gonna keep losing.

That's not surprising, who would want to own that hideous fridge on wheels

lol they all look alike(that’s y u think they’re the same ones parked. Check the serial number , should be different every other week as they are all sold out.

​@@Clickbait540Bro, sales are way down. Did you not see the overproduction numbers they posted? Gaslighting isn't going to fix it either.

@@Shadowbandthey have bots online that make these comments to prop up the company.

To see a Cybertruck in a Tesla showroom months ago I had to give my email address. Now I get an email almost every other day from Tesla trying to to sell me an EV that I can get delivery on in a week. It used to take six months to get a new Tesla.

They're for rental companies. Tons of companies like penske, heinz, uhaul, etc get their cars inspected certified, and registered in Arizona.

@@user-xm4gd3st6s Lol. Hertz is busy selling off their Tesla fleet because it's insanely expensive to operate thanks to Tesla creating a walled garden of parts.

Nah, man. Hertz is already selling off those Tesla's they bought. It was a disaster. ​@@user-xm4gd3st6s

@@MessyPointedBlob lol not true... just little to no interest from what ive seen people who have used those tesla abuse the hell out of them launching them lol

It’s not like they are just sitting there for weeks or months. It’s a large lot full of EVs that’s constantly turning over.

Autobots roll out.. defeat the decepticon teslas..

You seen the mess there. It's a gross

Even worse, those EVs are "sold" in that a shell company buys them, registers them, parks them in endless fields, and then claims how great their EVs are selling. Everything about China is a smoke and mirrors game. Nevermind the fact that even their best quality EVs are pretty much just fires waiting to happen.

why are you worried about china, this mess is our backyard... focus.

@@jaydee2072 look at the buildings turning out to be nothing more than wet sand. The whole place is fake like the EV sales.

You both seems to have incomplete information, I've seen a complete reporting on those Chinese EVs, they went there to count and verify, there are EVs parked, but they're less than 1500, most belong to ridesharing/can aggregator companies, that have gone bankrupt, and most are old battery tech vehicles, there's another vital place where many EVs are parked, that's along China-Napal border, where cars are waiting documents approval for intercountry shipping.

They have to get processed and detailed. Someone has to take care of the paper work and make time for the customer, it’s not a pizza pick up.

@@user-ln7of9gs4s So considering there are many times more ICE cars sold than EV's why aren't there huge lots of ICE cars parked in lots and abandoned airfeilds.

But all the MSM narratives like "EV sales growth is slowing" makes so much sense. Until you realize slowing growth is like saying slowing accelerion. You are still picking up speed, just not as much per second. Stats, Tesla has 20 days of "inventory" and Tesla considers all cars in transit or waiting for delivery as "inventory. The average for other auto makers is nearly 80 days of inventory. Tesla has cars for 1/4 as much time as other auto makers and you can see that publicly available in SEC filings and Earnings reports.

If they're already sold why aren't they hiring drivers to take them

lol you cant believe Tesla is selling cars? You must be a hater because Elon is doing more than you ever will

Honestly, they are most likely correct. Last year I waited for my car for 6 weeks and dealership showed no inventory on the web site but they had similar parking lot with like 100-200 cars that was waiting for people to pick them up. They said that they "deliver" like 50 cars every day and its done in certain hours that you have to schedule ahead of time. They do prep work before delivery and that might be a time constrain. On Monday they told me that my car arrived and ready but I scheduled delivery on Saturday to avoid taking day off from work. So my car was there for the whole week, I assume many cases like this. Parking lot in front of the dealership was reserved for visitors, service and delivery purposes, not for storage.

Its a scam, I tell you. Tesla is hiding the truth I tell you. UFOs are involved.😂😂😂😂😂

And burning in the sun which is great for ev batteries

@peterpeter5666 where do you think ev's are parked when people buy them? In the bedroom? 🤣🤣 these are cars, they designed to be outside.

@@en9878 yes but when they are parked at your home and plugged in the cooling sytem is always working. do some homework before u talk

U can’t just go pick up ur Tesla whenever u want. U have a pick up date.

Many of these would be people from out of state because tesla is not allowed to sell in some states, no dealership

I’ve seen people get their delivery dates delayed by days or even weeks.

They're selling million of Tesla's. That means on a given day there around around 5000 Tesla's in transit. If you can get new owners scheduled to pick within 1 day, that's 5000 Tesla's in parking lots parked. Of course, not everyone can pick up in 1 day. Loans, insurance, license plates, scheduling around work and family events. Let's say it take an average of 5 days to settle everything. 25,000 Tesla's in parking lots waiting for owners to pick them up. I graduated high school so I can do this math.

elon was hoping the poorly educated would be buying them up. guess he was wrong.

More bad news for the parking-lot truthers. Tesla delivered 444,000 cars in Q2 with production at 411,000. Big draw down in inventories. It's a beat of every Wall Street estimate for Q2. ... Not to mention, Tesla Energy up 232%. In 2 years, Tesla Energy will be equal in size to it's car business.

Good one 😂

good slogan for OEMs

Not even Crashed Teslas go to land fill. They all get scavenged for parts to be sold on places like eBay. These are very valuable parts.

but that's where they'll be "parked" in 5 years LOL

Even though I am an EV fanboy, that is a bloody cracker reply! 😄 👍

U need to be aware!!!!!!!

@cs.8821 I need to be aware of Tesla storing its vehicles and delivering them. It is clickbait, pronto.

The news here is that Tesla is using a parking lot as a parking lot. Thats all it is 😂

​@@hanzreynadoNo, the news is Tesla is lying about one of its main advantages...they AREN'T selling online only and they AREN'T selling every car they make. Your copium is showing. How's that stock value now that Musk is going to dilute $50 bill or so it of it?

BREAKING: cars in parking lot

Actually, it's showing the slowdown of the EV market or maybe even the end of it. The EV subsides are drying up combined with massive inflation and people realizing EVs are a sham. You don't actually believe what the employee said right? They're paid and forced to say that. Of course they're not going to admit they're unsold and unwanted cars, Elon would bury him alive if he said the truth.

They do batch deliveries due to transport restrictions. If you have to deliver 100 cars to customers once a week and they can only be shipped in once per week, those 100 cars have to be stored somewhere.

​@acnva If that's the case, why are there comments saying these are waiting to be PICKED UP by their owners. Also there are supposed to be waiting lists for every model why the need for them to be stored. Surely if you have to be on a waiting list you'd want to pick it up ASAP.

Most of these would be for customers from out of state when they pick up more comes tesla only build a car after its been paid for

Every manufacture is now sitting on excess inventory. With the end of cheap money, reality is sinking in fast. Deflation time

It’s not there for months. Tesla sells a lot of cars.

@@trondialsingh594 Not true, they built 46000 more than they sold.

That's not true. They built more than they "delivered". They don't build unsold cars. Tesla considers it delivered when a customer takes possession. Dealerships cover the country in un-sold cars. Tesla only has a hand full of locations per state. Some states have 0, like Iowa, so you gotta pay in-full or through a 3rd party financing just to get it shipped here. I know, because I had to pay in full. They didn't even offer leasing here, but I prefer ownership like most Iowans.

Yeah, I think I saw an F150, or so...

Factory employees probably can’t even afford one

You don’t “make payments” until you pick it up. Once your delivery date is set you can delay a little, but eventually Tesla will “release” the car’s VIN so someone else can buy it off the website. In that event, Tesla also keeps the original orderer’s non-refundable $250.

It takes time to detail, do a pre delivery inspection, and then schedule the customer so paper work can be completed and orientation with the car. It’s not a pizza pick up.

@@Marc816 Do you need help with numbers?

Someone from out of state, when they pick up another vehicle, takes it place every week. Tesla not allowed to sell in se states because they don't have dealerships, only service centers

Why?

re: "Looks like Tesla needs an actual dealership..." ikr...? what a crazy concept.

Well you gotta understand, Tesla is a technology company, not a car company. They use their own tech to produce their very own car products that are mostly made from their own material, but they're not an actual car manufacture like Ford and Chevy is. That being said, Tesla owns their own retail stores which is why some states won't allow them to operate there because the company doesn't go by the franchise laws like standard dealerships do. My guess is this is also their way to cut costs, and to also make the buying process run more smoothly since most of the process is conducted online through a mobile app. The only time you would need to go to a Tesla Center, is if everything is already finalized and a delivery date is set for you to go pick up your car.

@@AngelTechno wait so you can’t test drive a Tesla at their store even?

Some are, or at least they are waiting for the Non-FS edition.

Mine has 28k miles and I’ve never needed to go to a service center for anything.

Govt buys most of them and dismantles them to brainwash public

Wrong

@@devengudinas1649not wrong. You have a scheduled pick up date when you purchase. More vehicles are shipped than than the Tesla center can accommodate. All of those vehicles in that lot are already sold, and awaiting customer prep and pickup.

Wrong

egg on the haters face. hahaha. they all thought the Teslas are abandoned. little did their tiny bird brain knew it was already sold tesla to be delivered to their new owners. Haters gonna hate. Losers gonna keep losing.

These are already paid for vehicles. Many customers have come from out of state to pick up because tesla not allowed to sell in some states they don't have any dealership only service centers

@@trondialsingh594that’s a disgusting excuse.

we all need to judge ourselves before we judge others

Funny because Tesla have almost a million pre orders to fill.

There were very few Cybertrucks there. It was all the the passenger car models.

@@Jj-gi2uv stored electricity can be thought as fuel.

Doesn’t make sense to steal them. Tesla knows where they are. LOL

If you were trying to be sarcastic, this is actually kind of true because the thiefs tend to not target teslas. Also how are they even able to drive them off the lot? This is assuming they are trying to steal by driving them off the lot.

Teslas are too smart comparing to OEMs or german cars which got stolen by criminals all the time

@@acnvaNo they don’t not after I’m done

@@KevinNguyen1Its rather simple hack the computers

wait till you hear about dealerships!

The "lots" turn over quickly. Once the deposit is paid the VIN is assigned, then all the other stuff happens (payment, verification, etc). Then they assign a delivery appointment and you pick up.

@@OldDirtyRobot Cool. I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.

That's for deployed personnel to store their vehicles.

ahh , so Tesla has sold them to themselves, makes sense now. So still not actually sold to a person.

Actually, most cars are "sold" the Dealerships buy them unless the company has push of production or Fleet sales or a incentives push to get them out the factory.

@@obsideon1343 not exactly. Dealers use “floor plan financing” where the manufacturer loans the dealer the money to get the car on the dealer floor. So it’s all smoke and mirrors.

Tesla sells 20 days of inventory, the industry average is over 70 days. I'd say this lot clears and refills every 2 weeks is pretty good compared to dealer lots.

Oh right! Because the man who defied all odds and was able to figure out how to make rockets land just didn’t think about that. Lol

NMC Tesla's are 11x less likely to catch fire than gas cars. LFP Tesla's are 80x less likely than gas cars. But what do I know, I'm just using insurance data collected by IIHS. Insurance companies want you to buy a car that they will be forced to pay for. Right? Pretty sure they only make money if you pay and nothing goes wrong.

video or it didn't happen

That’s a lie.

I’ve bought 3 so far. Love them all and have absolutely no reason to go back to ICE.

@@acnvasave this and come back to it in 6 years.

People are picking them up its just every time someone picks up more, come in the lot, tesla only build a car after its been paid for, and most of this is people from out of state have to pickup tesla not allowed to sell in some states

6 years of EV only and I remember people saying Tesla was going bankrupt and there was no place to charge. Since then Tesla delivers 10x as many vehicles and earned more money than GM and Ford combined. The best selling car in the world is the Model Y for a reason.

To get to the otherside? Otherwise he crossed the parking lot for no reason.

@@martentrudeau6948 they dared cross the cyber lot to say those Teslas are there to rust in 2 days and they're terrible nobody wants them and that's why they're there , so Teslas doomed and they just shut off giga Austin production.
