    One advantage Tesla has over other car cos is that there is obviously a Jobs-like force behind the product.

        @paulg you should read about the apocryphal story of @elonmusk's obsession with the door handles. in retrospect, the right decision.

        @paulg It demeans @elonmusk to compare him to Jobs; When I met Steve he was an asshole. By all accounts Elon actually cares about humanity.

        @paulg To be the market leader, Tesla has to expand range, and add quality products that're affordable in developing economies too.

        @paulg They just need to nail the interior. Can't compete with luxury brands (yet). Better materials and design needed.

        @paulg More like Tony Stark. Jobs had no ambitions to disrupt all of humanity, like @elonmusk.

        @paulg do you mean in terms of design+passion? Or more of what takes place behind the scenes that compels people to use Tesla products?
