Thanks, I will check them out.

Good evening. We are almost ready to sell our very first NJ SREC and wanted to see if anyone had a recommendation on which aggregator to use? For now, we plan to sell them as they become available. Thanks. Tom

I think there are several issues with your calculation. first, I think a Model X is closer to 390 Wh/hour Next you divided when you should have multiplied and then your division is off by a factor of 100. try this miles watts-hours/ mile Miles * watt-hours / mile = watt-hour...

Bump

Good evening, We got our permission to operate our new Tesla Solar Panel and Powerwall system at our home in New Jersey and now I'm signing up to get SRECs for the amount of power the Solar Panels generate each month. I can't figure out where I get the numbers to report. I'd love it if all I...

Thanks

What are you listing for battery capacity?

That is correct. I thought it was a fair comparison as the $100 included everything I needed to be able to plug the car in as well.

I got one of these last month, works great. I had to turn the receptacle around so it faced into the garage instead of into the house. All in it cost me ~ $100. UMC automatically limits the draw to 24A and I average 21 miles of range per hour of charge. Don't get me wrong, it would be great...

I think you need to consult with both an accountant and CFO type to get a good understanding of how companies amortize R&D costs and the relationship that to product pricing. Bottomline, pricing of commercial items, especially bleeding edge one like a Model 3, bears little relationship to...

Don't worry, let the Gas Station Attendants close it for you after they check the oil.;)

Sorry only overnight waiters like me. ;) (Although getting there before they closed on the 30th got me a test drive in an S)

So Long Range Model 3 with dual motors ~346 miles? Maybe 350 if the new motors are geared with range in mind?

It may be common, but it is grating since it is the official designation of a car Tesla has regularly described as a benchmark.

The way Tesla leases have been done up to now essentially recoups the tax credit in the buyout price. OP would end up not getting any of the credit and have paid all of extra fees for leasing if he followed your advice to lease a Model 3 and then buy it. If you like to give advice to people, I...

very big :)

Canuck I got mine this week, thanks. My wife was suitably surprised.

Set Thread = Shark Jump

Waiting for Ludicrous. Or more correctly, ludicrously waiting for Ludicrous. I just hope the price isn't completely ludicrous. I could go on but that would be . . .

While I can't speak for azred, if I publicly referred to my wife as "the little lady", I suspect my next reference to her would be "ex-wife".;)

Still waiting for matte black. Since it going to be a year until we can get Ludicrous, there is time to mix up a couple batches of the paint.

And recognizing your error, you immediately deleted the inaccurate post or asked the moderators to take it down? No, you continued to press your FUD in other posts.

This. I'd guess <50 pounds/23 kg extra for the optional glass, which is less than a 1.5% increase in curb weight.

Yeah, I noticed that. I'm hoping that since Elon previously confirmed that Ludicrous would be available, it is one of the "Additional options will become available over time" mentioned in the FAQ.

I'm afraid it is either your research skill or truthfulness that is shameful. This is the correct test data page: NHTSA NVS | Vehicle Crash Test Database - Test Detail Information Notice the test reference number of CV1516.0005 (matches the sticker) and the closing speed of 32.64 kph (20.28...

Sept to Nov 2018 for us, and that doesn't take into account our strong desire to get Ludicrous. Early (third in line) 3/31 reservation, non owner, non employee east coast. A bit disappointed that we may only get 25% of federal tax credit. Hopefully we will take advantage of the extra time to...

@Canuck1966 I'd be interested in two.

I suspect that is pretty close to what happened. I understand that comprises happen, in fact they necessary, but I think people need to be honest about the effects of their ideas and compromises.

So the bias in the tax credit towards those with higher incomes is a figment of my imagination?

If pointing out reality amounts to class warfare, then I am guilty as charged. I will not stop.

Yes it is, I'm also pretty sure that people with less income are more likely to drive older more polluting cars. Society would benefit more from replacing those with EVs. You could easily make the tilt toward the wealthy less egregious, why isn't the credit refundable? That plays a major...

Thanks for calling my opinion a fallacy, I had no idea. BTW, since the credit were passed in 2009, ~ top 30% income would be the more appropriate number to look at. Yes, most of the tax breaks you listed are designed to benefit the wealthy. Most of them benefit the wealthy far more than the...

You asked for facts to support the idea that the tax credit was designed to go the wealth. I was pointing out, as had others, that you have to be at least semi wealthy to get the whole tax credit.

Who knows what people were thinking when they voted for the tax credit, but in 2016, a married person was unlikely to able to get the full tax credit unless their household income was in top 40%. Back in 2012 it would likely have taken a top 30% income. Whether top 30% is wealthy or not you can...

Computers abort SpaceX Falcon 9 launch edit: oops, I guess i missed your second sentence.

I wonder what kind of a discount you get for using the "toasty" core.

That is not the case for everyone. For my use case, since a sedan is likely to have both more passenger room and better aerodynamics it would be better.

t thanks

Is the livestream open to the public?

I apologize. I just reread my comment and realized my intentions were not clear. I do not doubt the numbers that were posted, they are what I would expect. Rather, I was attempting to joke about being able to take advantage of them by driving on Escher designed roads where you could always...

Paging Mr. Escher, paging Mr. Escher.

I'm pretty sure the Model S has a Cd of .24 not .21. If I accept the rest of your assumptions and plug the correct Cd for the S in, I come up with a ~ 16% difference which would give the Model 3 75D a range of 300.44 miles. As been pointed out by others, weight does make at least some...

You are free to make your own decisions and form opinions about state tax policies. If you had chosen to pick up your car in Freemont, you would not have owed Tennessee any use tax though: Credit for Sales or Use Tax Paid in Another State - TN.Gov As a side note, for Tennessee as with most...

Is it really necessary to claim that specific people, NASA Contracting Officers, are corrupt without evidence? I have no clue what you do, but I am certain you would be pissed to be publicly called out by some anonymous person on the internet with a charge that could interfere with your job...

Ever met anyone with less than perfect vision? Perhaps you had to deal with glare once. Maybe heard of people who live at a blind curve. I was going to say I'm not sure I agree with you on who is being selfish here. But actually, I am sure I disagree with you.

Did your '89 Civic fit three adults in back seat in a way they could live with for an hour and a half drive. I'm hoping to be able to do that in the 3.

I'm more of a Viking fan, but I get your point.

Actually, I think she is hoping for butt warming in under 3 seconds.;)

Matte Black. Zero percent chrome. Black Wheels. Ludicrous. Way to much money, but hey, it's my wife's mid-life crisis. Oh yeah, can't forget Sub-Zero.

Does anyone know what the Multi-Point Inspection includes? I suspect it includes hooking the car up to a computer and getting information about engine and battery health. I don't know how you do that in your own driveway as I'm pretty sure Tesla isn't giving away their software. Many things...
