> he did not start Tesla

While true, this meme feels almost as petty as Musk himself: Tesla had barely shipped its first car when Musk took over.

Founded July 1, 2003, the Roadster was officially revealed to the public on July 19, 2006; Eberhard was asked to step down as CEO in August 2007; Tesla had still only delivered 147 cars by January 2009.
