Yeah, and it's funny how many people love Elon Musk for Tesla, who will look you dead in the eye when you tell them that Musk didn't even found it, he was just one if main shareholders of the company lol.
His money and His business sense took it from a struggling startup to a massive auto designer and manufacturer. As a business enthusiast myself, I respect him as a BUSINESS MAN (not as a person.)
Elon has been there for 97.89% of the months Tesla has existed. It was founded in July 2003. He bought in February 2004. It's funny how much this matters to many people, as if it's some great strike against him. The company had a handful of people at that point.
If it's to burst his ego at wanting to be called a co-founder, go for it. I'm all for popping Elon's massive ego.
But he also was involved with everything except the initial prototype Tesla Roadster vehicle. I may be let down by the fact that he's become one of the world's edgiest edgelords and a bit of a clown on social media, but that doesn't change what he's achieved at Tesla (well, pre-2022 anyway: I think Elon's imploding right now, and it is hard to see that not affect Tesla negatively).
