Right. And his whole timeline shifted right by 6 month when they didn't start production as they expected a few weeks afterwards.

Giving this the new estimate is placed to summer 2018.

The first shift was 3-months, as of Nov 2017 [1]: "We currently expect to achieve a production rate of 5,000 Model 3 vehicles per week by late Q1 2018".

When that was missed, it was pushed back again to Q2-18. It looks like those shifting goalposts have finally been met but for the above poster to call it "unthinkable" is absurd. It's the exact messaging we've been hearing for at least a year and a half.
