No ofense but
Comparing Tucker to Musk is kinda idiotic,,

How was Tucker cars diferent,better then other cars of that time?
It wasnt..

Tesla on the other hand beats every ice car in reliability,low cost of operation and cleanliness..

Tesla does make profit no matter what the naysayers claim,,Tesla just reinvests expands and builds more Gigafactories and superchargers icluding world wide..
I woudlnt be surprised if someday Tesla became the worlds bigest ev builder..

Idiotic?....Really??....So you say it was not a better car for the times?? (LOL!)

Check out the history:

From all latest reports I’ve bothered to read, Musk is going GigaBroke faster than a fully charged Model 3....For EV fans, no worries, there will always be manufacturers for EV’s...

Its not so much the car failed, the man did from an economic perspective. There were no government subsidies then, at least not like now. It also doesn't help when you have 3 of the largest corporations in the country at the the time against you in anyway possible. How many politicians did GM and Ford have in their pocket in the late 40's? Case open! Perhaps Musk should study Tucker more. Burning through capital / cash at the rate of $480000 an hour while the accounts receivable column remains in brackets is unsustainable. You don't have to believe it,its that simple..
