    Apple buying Tesla would be kinda crazy, might turn out good since Teslas are basically computers with wheels. But the two companies design way differently than each other, I doubt Tesla is as good of craftsmanship as what Apple typically does, and may sully their brand unless they can find a cost effective way to turn out a better product for similar pricing

    I could see Microsoft making more sense between it or Apple. Tesla could give them that “sexy” edge they’ve literally never had before and that Apple’s always had going for them. But there are tons of legal issues and regulations with the automotive industry, idk if they will want to.

    Other interesting options would be NVIDIA or Alphabet, they have the spare capital for it but again, weird industry for them to get into. Likely Toyota or Ford etc would buy before a tech company imo.

      If you want to maintain that feeling, don’t ever buy Beats headphones. I’ve had a few and their build quality is worse than Teslas.

      So Apple has bought at least one crummy brand and not corrected build issues.

      I think alphabet have a good partnership with jaguar. They would have to redesign to bring in line with Waymo. The bones are there though.
