Sorry to cut in the conversation, but I do not understand the purpose of comparing Ford with Tesla. It's like comparing apples with oranges. Since, you're on the topic, Ford CEO recently commented that they too can build Tesla-like cars. They brought a Tesla Model S. Took it apart. And built it. GM also caught buying one to test it against the Cadillac ELR.

However, Ford/GM/Daimler AG all expresses they want to compete with Tesla, but to produce such competitive high standard vehicle matching the Model S, will not happen until the 2017 (You can research to confirm this but its been verified). Currently, this put Tesla at the highest monopoly market of high quality/speed/consumer ratings all around. By the time these automakers catch up to Tesla, Tesla may be producing a 500 miles per charge battery vehicle which is twice the speed it is currently.

It's another type of element of the cations/anions for its battery mentioned in a different article, that Tesla/Musk is currently researching on.

I do understand the P/E is high for Tesla, however there are companies that P/E is irrelevant due to growth/cult stock/amount of shares/stocks shorted/etc. Look at Amazon/Netflix/FB/a lot of stocks move up/down without reason. Musk has agreed. But when you have so little shares, and so many demands for the shares...this will be the 'driving force'. Musk will not understand because he's not an investment person. He does not know how the market--bulls/bears market function. Listen to his opinions/saying of the company's growth/cars but comments on the stocks, you can simply ignore.

I'm sure Ford was once where Tesla was...being a start up. Rome was not built in a day. Electric cars are the future. Overall, Musk's the new Steve Jobs. As other folks are copying its invention, this person is researching a whole new level. GLTYA.
