For all the supporters of Tesla over the years, and it's been several years now and there have been some very tough times, I'd just like to say thank you very much. I deeply appreciate the support, particularly through the darkest times.

We have this handy fusion reactor in the sky called the sun, you don't have to do anything, it just works. It shows up every day.

Even if there's a zombie apocalypse, you'll still be able to travel using the Tesla Supercharging system.
