This is the kind of advertising subprime mortgage lenders engage in.

Tesla has had a slew of misinformation directed at boosting their share price. One of the latest is their claims about setting up their Supercharger network which they expect to cover 98% of the U.S. The actual number of Superchargers operational shows Tesla will not be able to achieve their stated goal.

The only reason why TSLA shares are sky high is because people believe the lies. One of the big lies is the "safest car" lie. The highest score is 5 stars and nothing more. Other cars have achieved a 5-star rating. ".4" was added to the 5-star by Tesla themselves giving themselves a "5.4 star" rating.
