    Military members

    I think it would be interesting to see how many people are currently or were previously in the military. I have seen several posts of people mentioning USAA and have seen a couple about the military. I previously didn't think there would be a lot of military Tesla enthusiasts.

    I have been in the Army since 2004 and I am an EOD Team Leader. I am from Sonora CA, I am stationed out of Fort Bragg NC, and I am currently deployed to Afghanistan. I heard about Tesla in early 2009 and put down a reservation for the Model S. I have reservation P564.

    Welcome! I have no military background but have USAA through a family member. Have a brother who was in the Navy for 5 years though. USAA is great for insurance.

    Thanks for everything you and your team do and stay safe. Take care.

    Yep I have both of my parents to thank for my USAA membership. But also not a member. My brother is a member on his own account but he only spend 2 years at a military academy before he decided the military wasn't for him.

    USAA may not have the absolute lowest rates but I think they are fairly competitive. I've also never dealt with a batter bank/insurance company. You always get someone on the phone literally within one to two minutes and they always seem to do a good job. I haven't done a rigorous price comparison for insurance rates but I'd highly recommend USAA.
