> This is the equivalent of Ford buying Exxon

Henry Ford wasn't a founder of Exxon. Musk is a founder of SolarCity.



I'm not sure how that's relevant. Musk being a founder of both companies doesn't magically make them different in what they are and do. The pieces of the pie in play are similar, if apportioned differently. They would combine to a similar whole.


  Henry Ford wasn't a founder of Exxon.
That would have been some trick, given that Exxon didn't exist until 25 years after Ford died. ;)
