    Does anyone have a home solar setup that covers all charging?

    If you are willing to share, what was your total cost to install?

    The Problem with "Public service announcement for P+ owners" Threads

    I believe your "gut" is dead on. With the camber and toe so far off on many MS, I bet they lose some mileage per KWH too. Scrubbing those tires off in 4-5k uses energy. :)

    The Inhumanity of the World Petroleum Trade

    Tigeraids... Are you serious that the Tesla has no hazardous material? Talk about "educated". Think for a minute. Go inside your car and look around at the electronics and materials. Also, go look up the hybrid aluminum formula used in the frame.. See what is in that. Then, if you have metallic...

    Thanks for the reply. I get the environmental overlords going crazy on the Salmon excuse. I am sure that could be mitigated. Unfortunately they have a agenda of control over you and enriching themselves with the Oligarchs crony business. From what you said, I experience you have a very good...

    Bring on the Global Warming!

    CO2 is a registered pollutant by the EPA and many other agencies. Laws and "regulations" are enforce to control all CO2 and methane emissions. As for your insults... They betray you.... Anyone who is not a Koolaid drinker on this topic see this. I will watch in earnest your videos and go to...

    The Problem with "Public service announcement for P+ owners" Threads

    +1000 ^^^^ Thank you for the thoughtful and detailed information. As I examine the TCO of Tesla for my business use, I was reading with interest the wear on Michelins Primacy, Goodyears and the Pilots. All across the board. In the end, the Primacy should last over 50k miles with mix of...

    Bring on the Global Warming!

    And who says CO2 is a registered "pollutant" anyway? I do not want it as such. Because, then my own body is regulated by wicked federal law as a CO2 polluter. It will be up to the overlords to decide when my or your CO2 quota is up.

    Bring on the Global Warming!

    I get your argument. I also experience that you do not have an agenda to control others through Environmental laws as one means of control. Unlike too many other drones that follow those who seek to take our wealth, property, liberty, and own each of our "output of value". I am suspect of the...

    Love this.. Hilarious.. The sky is melting, run for your lives... Hey, if the supposed chaos is real, I will head to Greenland to exploit its resources, grow lots of food, drink the fresh water, build a new Republic, and live in bliss... Like "way back when" ancestral whites in the "world...

    Here is a link that summarizes many of Obama's quotes about coal plants. Beside, it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, it is a duck. Like global warming pundits who say no one credible can claim man made global warming does not exist", "no one credible doubts Obama commitment to end coal as...

    Go to the EPA web site. Last time I did this, I searched for "biological greenhouse gas emitters". Went from there. Also, searched "organism emission of methane" or something like that. Digging deep you will find statements around "human production". I also searched "human exemption" relating...

    Indiana... We have 24 plants shutting down as a direct result of his "phone and a pen" illegal rulings. Also, go look for the Audio... He has been saying this in record since 2007 or before. I have heard the audio and seen the video in context where he says this. He also brags that we will...

    Politics - Quarantine Thread

    They are communists... As for nuts... Those tyrants that want to control us all under the false guise of knowing war is better for us than we do. are either nuts or maglamanics.. Just the way it is. Not pointing the finger at anyone in this post as at this level.

    NWDIVER.. Thanks for feedback. The quotes around Midwest I guessing do not have the efficiency as the numbers you quote. Which I am assuming is 90+ % sun in a day. We have several issues working against us. Clouds/rain, and more northern location. Supposedly we have about similar returns as The...

    Ok... 20 year spread to get to $.04 a KWH? Way too extended time ROI for average home owner. I have yet to see a NPV (net present value) GAAP calculation for these deployments. Any CPAs in here that are a fan of clean personal energy production that have done this? If you are willing, any...

    Oh, and how does it work to charge your Tesla at night using your personal rooftop solar system? Oh, maybe wind you say? Good luck working around your whacko home owners association or local zoning to have a wind mill big enough on your property. And get ready to lose your subsidy for EV...

    Hydro power is under attack by whacks that seek to destroy the dams. And in the Midwest all hydro development plans have been cratered by the environmental whacks law suits in ignorant whack administrative law judges courtrooms. So, get ready for hydro to dry up, or not be expanded in other...

    Where does the power come for the Tesla? 65% coal, 15% nuc, 15% natural gas or fuel oil. Only a smidgeon from "clean" energy. Now let's look at the energy it takes to produce such a luxury vehicle. Much exploited tare earth minerals, hazardous elements and final materials.. Which take...

    For some reason I thought I remember the sales rep told me there were attachments in the roof for a rack for bikes or snow ski.
