Don't want to get too far off-topic, but I'm not sure with you mean by that statement. Yes, the wildfires in your state have been extremely destructive (and my sympathies are with those who have lost homes, vehicles, and loved ones), but I don't see what PGE has to do with it. Most of those fires are either started by arsonists/careless campfires or by lightning from dry thunderstorms where the rain evaporates and does not reach the ground.
Agree to stay on topic.

The bigger story but hardly talked about is Tesla's margins. If other auto makers are paying attention they should be very concerned. Tesla China is a much better factory than Fremont, Germany and Texas should be even better meaning more efficient and better margins. It will take time to get there however so in the next year except there to be a whole lot of talk about how Tesla's profits are going down.
perhaps some here don't know that a lot (all?) teslas sold in europe right now are coming from tesla's china factory. i'm actually surprised tesla hasn't imported cars from the china plant into the u.s. but perhaps there's no benefit since they can still easily sell everything they can make, whether in asia, europe, or the americas.
it is a stunning success story.
and yes, if other car makers are actually looking at what tesla is building (plants) they should be terrified.
lol, i hear ya... my aunt/uncle who live in ontario just visited here and had lots to say about canadian 'leadership'
