#1 Should be a blinding flash of the obvious. Slow going should be expected. Your Tesla may be the wrong choice of conveyance.

#3 Seems like the problem would have been obvious once the first car fueled up. And should have been obvious to the delivery driver when he unhooked his hose and got the wrong odor.

#9 CITGO is still owned by the Venezuela state owned oil company. It's said that Venezuela "does not profit" from CITGO operations in the US due to "sanctions." I'd imagine all that money goes somewhere, and it isn't the widows and orphans of communism fund.

#10 Why do I think there is a "CRAPTON" of equity, money, and fungible assets belonging to CITGO moving offshore right now? Pretty sure those responsible have alternative residence locations outside Caracas or even Havana.

#11 Are there different blends of electric fuel?
