Epic fail. That’s what first crossed my mind as I watched the window break (twice!) during Tesla’s Cybertruck launch. Instead, the unfortunate incident brought immediate worldwide attention to Tesla’s new truck — mainstream press, social media, and (of course) meme makers all gobbled it up. Fast forward, and Elon Musk’s crazy concept for the Cybertruck is now considered genius.
Tesla’s Q4 2019 earnings call sent the stock into orbit during after-hours trading and in subsequent days.

Sure enough, Model S won countless awards and gobbled up marketshare. Years later, Musk’s vision for a pickup truck — which certainly turned out to be bold — shocked the world.
Aniseh Sharifi has been working in the auto industry for the past 10 years. She says, “I grew up around cars — my brother and dad were car fanatics and that’s all they ever talked about.” When profiled in Toronto Life magazine she confessed, “I’m an electric vehicle nerd.” Aniseh says, “My EV has changed my life — and yes I realize how cheesy that sounds.” She drives a Tesla Model 3.
It’s a thrilling feeling when you take delivery of your first Tesla. There’s that new car smell. The serene silence of having no internal combustion engine. The ultra-smooth acceleration. The addictive torque when you stomp on the accelerator. However, looking at your perfect all-new, all-electric machine might leave you feeling like something is still missing.
How do Tesla vehicles perform in the snow? Here’s how.

Tesla beat the street. According to Bloomberg, “The electric-car maker earned $1.86 a share in the third quarter, exceeding the most optimistic projection by a wide margin and beating the consensus estimate for a 24-cent loss.” Yes, Tesla showed a profit. And the stock price soared as “shares climbed as much as 21% to $308.50” in after hours trading after 3Q earnings were reported by the electric automaker.
