My favorite quote from the site,
Everyone always asks: How Long Does The Roadster Take To Charge?
My favorite answer: About 30 seconds. . . . 15 seconds to plug it in at night and 15 seconds to unplug it in the morning

... The Tesla Roadster has a battery capacity of 72 kwh so the Roadster qualifies for the full $7,500.00 credit...
??? 72 kwh ???

The myteslaroadster site says "no expiration date", but then when you click the link through to the driveclean.ca.gov site it says: "These stickers will be valid until January 1, 2011 at which time this access program expires. "...Zero Emissions Cars qualify for White Stickers and these currently have no expiration date.
High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) Lane Exemption...

Operation - The Tesla Roadster Buyers Guide
I prefer Regenerative Braking myself......Regenerative Breaking is a mechanism controlled by the Roadster's electronics panel...
How about a Brake Pedal instead of a break peddle???This means that when you take your foot off the accelerator, the car immediately slows down without even touching the break peddle, the break lights come on, and you are recharging while you drive! The Regenerative Breaking feature is very intuitive, and extremely helpful for single peddle driving in stop-and-go traffic, neighborhood driving with lots of stop signs, and controlling Roadster speed through canyon roads.

Seems like they didn't proofread it yet...
...In the Roadster, a quick acceleration is at the tap of you foot and Roadster is so cost efficient to recharge, you may be naturally be inclined to take advantage of the Roadster's extreme performance and drive outside the EPA testing standards...
Aside from that little nitpicking, I think it is awesome the amount of info they are finally providing! No nonsense, straightforward, useful information.

Thank you TEG for pointing those out.
I was thinking she might be filling in where Martin left off but it does not have as much personality as much as a bit of a home spun feel. That might put off those who consider the car to be luxury, but it will be good to inform those who don't care about such things.
Looks like the fixes are already made.
