    Paying for the Roadster

    Well, if someone was planning on financing their balance due using something like Capital One or some other online lender, the availability of credit compared to a year ago is significantly less. That might trip some people up. For example the current maximum available at Cap One is 50k, no...

    Paying for the Roadster

    Yeah, tough decision as I had the best price. Financing was becomming a concern in this environment since we are just now starting on a garage and house remodel. So, I decided to put the garage first and let the EV dust settle for a few years before buying. I was also breaking my own rule of...

    First Tesla on ebay

    Remember the Mazda Miata debut? People scooped those up and tried to sell them at a profit. Didn't work out for them and I would be very suprised to see anyone turn a profit after purchasing from Tesla AND paying tax & reg then selling it at a higher total price to someone who also must pay tax...

    The Sun: Electric dreams

    Got it, so a 30A dryer circuit would charge it up in one night.

    The Sun: Electric dreams

    I thought the charge time doubled to 7 hours when you went with a standard plug (110V)

    2009 waiting list

    Yes, now I remember. They could move me to last and that would be OK as long as I keep my price. :cool:

    WSJ: Former GM CEO On the Future of Electric Cars

    Without forward thinking, the small car makers and future electric car makers might blow by GM, with GM's stock price falling and the company experiencing financial problems, etc. Oh, wait, that's happening right now.

    Seems Martins car is finished now

    Hey Martin, yes I am aware of your concerns and feelings in these matters, I was just speaking with a "regular car guy's perspective" and not trying to diminish or trivialize all that has happened between you and Tesla. Believe me, I have been paying close attention. You are one of my few...

    Seems Martins car is finished now

    As far as VIN sequence goes, I can tell you from personal experience on low production vehicles that actual build sequence often differs from VIN number sequence. I have ordered and owned two Vipers and both my cars VIN's did not reflect the true build sequence. Personal feelings aside, Martin...

    Edmunds review

    Its amazing to me how inaccurate the "information sources" are on a regular basis. Hopefully someone over at Tesla will contact them and get it corrected.

    Customer Town Hall Meeting II Information

    On a side note, I heard at least 2 people ask the same basic question.........When will owners be offered an opportunity to invest in Tesla the company? Presumably at pre-IPO price levels. Elon said he would ask the board and would support it if the board did. I think its entirely fitting that...

    Roadster #1 on its way plus more

    Agreed, looks like good news overall. I wonder just how much re-certification will be necessary for the upcomming trans/engine/PEM changes? If no one else asks at the town meeting on 1/30 then I will.

    Solar Installation

    Sounds crazy, but you already invested in the system so now you could simply raise your power usage to the point that gets them off your back......maybe when the roadster arrives things will even out.

    Roadster vs Vehicle Sensors

    It only caught my attention because of the reference to ferrous metals, which are not exactly plentiful on the roadster.

    Roadster vs Vehicle Sensors

    Due to the lack of ferrous metal in the roadster, I wonder if we will need something like this? Product Information - Traffic Light Changer for Motorcycles - the Light Knight

    David Vespremi No Longer with Tesla Motors

    Is this getting blown out of proportion? I think so. Just look at the roadster. Despite the unfortunate departure of the early founders, the car is still 99.99% the vehicle they created. IMO that original vision is alive and well in the roadster and I can't wait to get mine. Martin is still...
