One thing that I will admit, I agree that Musk doesn't care long-term about 'cars'. He has repeatedly stated that long-term he wants to go to transition earth to have better energy sources, and go to Mars.

There is the chance that if he can sell off the car manufacturing part of Tesla to fund SpaceX he might do that.

Especially if he can split off Tesla Energy into a separate company.

But, who will buy Tesla for the $400B it is worth now? Or say $200B if he splits the company into two separate entities.
