It's hard to wrap my head around a future where my car might be earning me money through autonomous driving while I'm asleep in my bed or play video games but here we are.https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1113977924947009536 …

Agreed. Need to do the math on each approach. Tesla gets margin on car sale, and a percentage of each ride (~20%). Uber can finance their vehicles through manufacturers (which would love the business), and then after payoff get 100% (minus maintenance) of ride sharing.

The scaling differs for both business models. In this aspect Amazon would be an apt comparison. It does not carry inventory with own capital. Third parties keep inventory, sell on Amazon. Tesla would not own inventory and makes free cash for practically no incremental cost.

Super high level. But illustrates the potential benefit to owning the income generating device. Lots of assumptions but directionally probably accurate.pic.twitter.com/Du6BosclXH

Tesla is able to do both. While selling cars get the smaller fee with no upfront cost, or buy and manage their own fleet in some cities (Elon said they will do so)

What I’m doing now with Turo. Except it would be nice if people could take a second to read the guidelines around not washing the car on automatic track with touch while the auto wipers are on

And what was the estimated hardware cost of a Waymo vehicle vs Tesla Model 3? Waymo around $200,000 w/ software Tesla 3 around $38,000 - $45,000 w/ sofware Which is more cost effective?
