This is just plain lying by electrek...he started promising "self-driving next year" long before that.
You can go on the SpaceX website right now and book a trip to Mars for 2026.
And The Music Man just announced this will be a monthly service to make stonk go up.
“The market will bear the cost”
I don't think it was next year every year before that?
It was just very soon before that.
He may have used "end of year" before 2018...I'm pretty sure he promised "coast-to-coast" FSD capabilities "by end of the year" back in 2016
Oh turns out my timelines are off, I thought the coast to coast promise was 2019.
It was in 2016, for the end of 2017.
"3 months maybe, 6 months definitely" is still one of my favorite quotes from his timeline estimates.

Not the "two weeks" for months on end?
