I find it odd how people refuse to admit that Musk has made some errors. He is a human who takes big swings, and has his share of failures to prove it. It's ok to admit that. I'll note, there is no mention of "Thud" [0], another failure of his.

==Acquired by Tesla, who remains a major supplier of residential solar panels.==

Tesla bought Solar City for $2.6 billion in 2016. In 2019, they targeted 1,000 installations a week. In 7 years, Tesla has installed a total of 3,000 solar systems, getting to about 20 installations a week. Add in the fact that he purchased the company from his own cousins and the story looks worse.

==Still a company.==

It is still an existing company, but that doesn't make it a success. Founded 7 years ago, has built one actively used tunnel. They also had to change the entire idea (it's actually just Teslas driving underground).
