    > “Reuters is lying,” Musk had posted on X, minutes after the story published on April 5, 2024, halting a 6% decline in Tesla’s stock.

    > The executives knew that Musk had, in fact, canceled the low-cost vehicle...

    > Musk’s post was so confusing to some senior managers that they asked him whether he’d changed his mind. Musk rejected their concerns and said the project was still dead...

    How about we find out real truth via discovery on a class action lawsuit?

    Talk around Tesla for years was about having a lower cost model, but it never seemed to happen.

    Meanwhile others have filled that gap.

    there most definitely will be a $25k Tesla...its called the CyberTruck...they keep piling up on lots unpurchased, and Tesla keeps making more!

    Materially deceptive or "mere puffery?"
