My friend was able to get a significantly lower lease deal on a Model S from an inventory car (may be demo car, not too sure). I think the trick is when Model 3 inventory starts to build up and especially towards end of quarter, you could get something better than the standard lease deal on a...

Waiting... Waiting... Waiting ... If yes, what is your max you will to pay a month?

Talked to my co-workers few days ago. I was the original line waiter more than 2 years ago. They said it seems like you been waiting for this car for crazy long time. I do agree it is getting a little crazy that I stood inline .. now they are delivering almost 20K cars a month and I still don't...

The Bolt might be the first EV consumer friendly car but there are still a lot of open questions? How will EPA rate this car? 200 miles? 170 miles? How does the battery hold up ? Will it lose 30% range first year? How will GM handle long trip charging? Will they sell the car in large quantities...

My current 5 series BMW does 18MPG on average.

Would "TIme of Use" make sense for me? https://www.psegliny.com/files.cfm/rates_resi.pdf I am on Standard Rate 180 now.

I don't have the car but let's say if I get one... what will be by electric bill be like? I looked at my current bill it is about .0922 per killowatt. Can someone tell me how much it would be to charge lets say Model S from almost 0 to 90%? Thanks!

If everyone works 60 hours a week, lets say 14,000 Tesla employees that would be 21,000 employees in a typical company...

Look, I got a ticket 20MPH over and even then the cop didn't show up. These cops probably have daily court dates, they can't spend everyday in Court.

These people keep thinking Tesla is like a typical car company from Detroit. It is not, if you compare what kind of people work there, its more like Google/Facebook. Tesla with 14,000 employees and counting.. what 1600 jobs are posted, this company is just going to go out control (growth wise)...

When I was single I was going to go for anything. I stayed late at work, didn't even want to come back (why even bother coming home when there is no one waiting for you except the computer (which I already had in my office) and a TV (which I already also had in my office). So basically work ->...

I drive in New York, for example Long Island Expressway is 55MPH, typically people drive around 70MPH, but tend to go up to 75. And cops start issuing tickets 76MPH and over. It is odd you can get a speeding ticket "3MPH" over.... New Jersey Turnpike is even crazier... Speed Limit is 65MPH and...

What I am asking if my power meter will be showing it used more from 0-50% vs 50% to 100%? or the same? Thanks!

Is everyone single here or something? That is the only way you would respond to my opinion about specs.

I think specs apply to less than 1% of Tesla Community. Especially if primary buyers are women... they wouldn't know what to make of those numbers. Look at their reservation page: Safety, Safety, Safety. For example: " Four LATCH child seat attachments, two in each passenger row" I have...

Look people this is a 100K+ SUV it is not meant to carry dirty wood logs around. If you want to carry around wood logs or something, you buy a crappy used SUV to do that. When you do house work, paint, etc, do you wear a suit and a tie? NO. This car is like your suit that you go to a VIP party...

I got tired of people complaining and canceling orders based on this "towing" capacity. Look people, the reason it has a towing capacity of only 5,000lbs and not 6, or 7 or 10 is because its not a standard ICE with huge engine block,transmission etc in front of the car. The front of the car...

I am 100% certain Tesla will create a system by then so you won't be able to abuse the system. I think the best way is to charge the abusers. I don't think it is ever a good idea to deny someone a charge, especially in emergency situations.

You are dreaming if you think it will be 6 months. :-) - - - Updated - - - I doubt they will have a 500 horsepower Model 3.

Found this preview on youtube: Tesla Model S P90D Preview - YouTube

Looks like the P90D owner is lazy

It is a about a wife that wanted to get rid of a Tesla because her husband got stuck with it (12V Battery Problem), she wasn't even there.

I have evolved. Okay :smile:

I was wondering if there should be a Health Warning when you change to LUDICROUS mode.

I like some of Donald Trump main points. He is a difficult person to figure out.

Oh please. Half of this forum probably agrees with me. They are just quietly just reading.

Anyone who is married here for many many years, knows all this. The wife thinks she is always right, but then years later after discussing with her friends, she says she was wrong.

Ouch Canadian Currency really went down hill or is it the other way around? Last time I was in Canada currency was almost the same as USD.

You know I went through the thread and the whole thread yelled at me "stupidity". The problem with a lot of people (for this instance, non tech women) is that they are uneducated about the car/tech, and they don't want to be educated about it, because they don't care. So sometimes the solutions...

The big difference is that there is going to be a crowd of people that have been piling up for 5 years.

Of course lease math wouldn't come ahead, there is probably 30-40% loss. However its a trade-off with warranty, more up to date cars, and having more $$ in your bank account.

I have Leased, Bought 2 cars, Leasing now again, and after buying 2 cars I realized buying is not for me. I want a new car every 3 years. The other issue is that the initial shock of putting down so much $. For example. My wife is leasing a Honda Civic, if I bought the car at the time would...

If Tesla hosts the site on a CDN and reserves the allocated bandwidth it should be fine. Microsoft MS Windows 10 update didn't crash any servers.

I wish I can get Model S right now, but the lease price would be double than my BMW 5 series. I already think paying 610$ a month for a lease is pushing it, paying over 1K is ludicrous :-)

I just wanted to start a discussion on what people are planning to do with the model 3 when it will be announced and when they finalize the order. There are 3 big points right now. 1. 35K starting price? Ye right. AWD, Leather, Tech Package, taxes, probably will run you somewhere mid 40's or...

Looks like someone forgot or taking a long day nap

It is odd that they would return you the full refund. Whats the point of putting any down then... its meaningless. Just saying as a concept. If it Tesla has it or the bank its still accessible. Like for example my 401K, there is a penalty, shouldn't the down payment be the same?

Interesting I didn't know there were stock options. What happens if Tesla shares go down? Will my returned refund be below 5000?

Few questions. Can I reserve the car as a lease? What is the down payment? If I change my mind what will happen to the down payment? terms? Thanks!

This is a complicating issue. The car that was damaged was probably a good deal for him, buying a new one even with a discount would not even come close. The only way I would get the damaged car if the cost of the value of the car was reduced (based on the damage devalue) and some perks on top...

I didn't want to start a new thread and I want to get back to the point of this topic. I don't own a Tesla car so I am coming from the point of view of a Tesla potential buyer. From following Elon Musk / Tesla for a while now, a lot of improvements in Model S are from customer issues and...

Then he will have to hope that the Model 3 car has 400 mile or range or so...

I am not really sure what kind of response you want from us. It seems you want the car, you can easily afford it, if you are going to buy a 100K car. From my view you have few easy options since you probably will get there eventually. You can buy a house or you can find a place to rent (which...

So I was at a BMW dealer and was talking to a sales person regarding Tesla direct approach into selling cars and she mentioned that over the years they got about 11 Teslas for trade ins and they weren't even sure what evaluation it to give. My question why would these people trade in a Tesla...

I think Elon Musk long term vision is nothing like you guys described. Think of it as your computer. You set "update schedule" lets say from 10PM to 6AM, it will do all the updates without you even bothering you. So think about it. I think long term, you will set your Telsa car "available...
