    I've been a reservation holder for 4+ years now with Aptera. Watching them change the design several times. Should I ever get to buy one, I'd probably play with it and then flip it. I have no expectations of this actually becoming a production vehicle anymore.The ideas and some of the tech is solid, but the means of production are a little bit out of the ordinary.

    I remember you making a similar video attacking self-driving cars. Now my car drives me around like a personal chauffeur. Clearly you have blind spots. I'll stick with the plain bagel for fair-minded skeptical analysis.

    While I'd like to see them go to full production, it seems highly unlikely that they'll be able to do it. I'm surprised that they have lasted this long.

    When I pre-ordered they said I could always cancel it and get my hundred dollars back. Now there is no such button on their website. I wrote to tech support, waiting for an answer.

    You mean "pathetic" until growth addicts finally admit that oil is finite? Only dumb gluttons mock pioneering energy efficiency as a concept, even if not perfectly executed. Aptera needs to hang on as a company until U.S. oil production peaks as soon as 2027 (CEOs are actively stating that year). Since oil is a global market, it could still take awhile for prices to get uncomfortably high. Remember when Aptera's ICE version and Elio Motors were on the cusp of success, then fracking made oil seem plentiful again? There's always less oil in the ground each second, for those who understand geology. Political price factors make people waste oil for shortsighted reasons.

    The TRUTH that no one wants to admit is that Aptera will fail. It is a niche product. There WILL NOT be enough people who want a 2 seater 3 wheeled vehicle with limited cargo space and a polarizing design. That's just the way it is. There will be SOME people who would want one, but not enough to make the difference needed. This prediction WILL age well.

    I put down $100 back in 2019, but I knew I was probably throwing it away. But now with the target price at $40K, I'm not even interested, even if they could produce it.

    If Aptera dose not make a delivery by 2026 they won't make it. I have invested and hope they make it but if nothing gets delivered by then i'm assuming they will go under. Although they so have a solar company in a way that's making money. they could at least transition into making solar tops to vehicles to change the companies direction. Would be cool if they change aptera into solar aptera if all else fails.

    I see you have set your AI on kill. Leave Aptera alone. Find someone else to pick on. I listened to less than a minute of your lies and wonder who do you think you're fooling. I suppose your attitude is. If you tell a lie long enough everyone will believe it. Not me!
