Putting my feelings of Musk to the side and he most likely wanted no other solution than Tesla cars on the road.
But...I can't find any support for the information in the title. Journalist Vance is quoted seemingly just airing his own conclusion on what Musk wanted or not.
Do we really need this grasping for straws posts about Musk when we already have tons of better and more substantial pieces?
The full quote goes on to say,
The full quote also includes,
Which to me indicates that Vance saw Musk not actually planning to build Hyperloop as somehow being a good thing.

I heard (not verified) that Musk had really bad inconsistencies when he was explaining how the Hyperloop should work. If looks like he was making stuff up
I understand that, I did hope most people will also read the article here. But the idea suggested by Vance is clearly not too far off in my opinion. I am happy too discuss that stuff here because it would fit the theme. I am not a big fan of Musk myself so I am probably a bit biased too
Yeah, never attribute to malice what could be explained by ineptitude and disinterest. This is just a quote of somebody else's opinion of musk.
No, no. This is the rule when dealing with people who haven't given you reason to believe they're acting in bad faith. Musk has been blatantly and openly acting in bad faith for years.
This is modern journalism. Agenda based extrapolation for clicks.
