Pretty sure that my phone key is waking my car and running climate when I use a bathroom in my house nearest the garage. This morning, surface temps in my garage were = to my climate settings, so it was immediately at desired temperature.

Twinsies. I'm a 3407xx, 4/22 build date, delivery scheduled in a week. Hoping for screen tilt, but not expecting it at this point.

At least one of us is buying a new 7 seat model that they do not need for the same reason. I hope that the new 5-seaters have improved rear cooling, but I knew it would bother me to not have the most comfort possible for passengers in my spaceship. Plus... maybe it's just me, but summers...

I'm 3407XX, and was told my birthdate is 4/22. I also felt that the VIN was a bit older than I hoped, but given that deliveries have been lumpy (didn't they even pause for some software updates in May too??), I'm hoping it's a non-issue. I read somewhere that swivel screens began on my...

Papa Vinned Me! 3407XX Order Date: 1/28/21 (498 Days) LR/white/white/7/20"/FSD Knoxville TN EDD: June 26 - June 28 No text yet, but my trade in mileage was outdated, so hopefully I'll hear from SA next week. Guessing at a 4/22-ish build date, likely edging the swivel builds. Will check...

*laughs standing next to never used wall charger installed a year and a week ago.

Maybe foolish on my part, but my hope is that the selective illumination capabilities of the matrix headlights will allow the AP cameras to see better at night, without blinding oncoming traffic, eventually ending forced auto high-beams and the associated issues. I’m not sure if I have the...

Seeing 5 seaters going out before 7’s is maybe the first time I’ve been surprised by Tesla during this whole process. Happy for you guys. 🥴

Yeah…. Total speculation, but every time someone says that Rivian should have broken up the price increase into multiple smaller amounts, I think: What if this IS the smaller amount? If their initial pricing was $20k off for the quad motor, then yeah, break it into 2 x 10k bumps or more… but...

Are any other 7-seater folks seeing “We’re building your car”? Mine just changed today. I assumed that it wasn’t updating with the others here because they haven’t started building the 7-seat model yet, but I haven’t seen that specifically discussed. (Apologies if I missed it) I still have...

My guess is that Tesla will be the only company offering ICE-beating long-distance towing performance in 2025, and I’m likely to put up with some of the same b.s. to get one.

Praise sweet Baby X, they put EDD on the splash screen of the iOS app.

Oh my...

FWIW - This recent post from the investors thread was in response to a mention of loaded car carriers heading North on I-5. It's the first I've heard of refreshed X's outside of the handful of factory deliveries.

Thanks! It’s great to hear they are starting deliveries in Knoxville. I did previously receive a text that my delivery has automatically been transferred from Nashville to Knoxville. Waiting on a refresh X tho, with a Sept EDD, so not holding my breath. I’ll get excited when they start...

Maybe. (With compliments to Dodger)

Lol.

Yeah... This QUARTER wasn't nearly as good as last YEAR:

Hoping against hope that they can count 1 delivery for 11:59pm,9/30 🤣

At first I was bothered by all of this yoke talk gumming up the investment thread, but now I understand that it’s actually spontaneous performance art. You guys are brilliantly demonstrating how adding a controversial feature to a production-constrained flagship product can drive...

For Legacy Auto OEMs, advertising $ are ALSO for keeping franchise dealerships happy. Whether through actual co-op partnerships, where advertising assets and publication/air-time costs are shared (commercials with a :05 empty tag for local dealership info, print ad templates, logo...

That's what they want you to believe [/tinfoil] Seriously though... It seems probable that the plaid will be somewhat better than the original specs (maybe range, maybe surprise features, we don't know). Maybe a lot of plaid+ orders will not be satisfied with the production-release Plaid...

4-d chess enthusiasts might point out that Cybertruck's polarizing styling has accelerated the advent of BEV pickups, while simultaneously leaving the door open for a "traditional" pickup partnership.

Anyone know if they shift deliveries to newly-opened service centers, or does the order stick with the original location/SA?

Thanks for posting. This explains much. I'm on Reg T too, received no notices, and saw a negligible change in initial margin requirement under the new rules via their alternative margin calculator.

I'm generally pretty zen about media FUD, but this one gets my goat. Headline should have read, "NTSB Raises New Questions About Media Reports of Fatal Tesla Crash in Texas"

Thanks for this heads up. Where can I learn more about this margin note from IB? I haven't seen anything from them via email or message center.

Hunter S. Thompson said it best: “The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good...

Well... it doesn't seem that great at the moment, but since yesterday's close, I was able to pick up what I needed at an average price of $714.03. It took me about 5 hours and 18 orders, and hurts my pride that I could have done better in a single click right now, but I think I'll be quite...

Hodling through the Cybertruck reveal taught me not to worry too much about whether Elon can or should stick to a script. I'm more curious about why the hosting gig is happening now? SNL does a pretty remarkable job of getting hosts on air at the exact moment they have something exciting and...

Can I add to your list? * MX Refresh deliveries I’ve mentally rehearsed picking up my first Tesla in Nashville for so long (years), that my brain will be confused if it gets delivered at West Town instead. I’d probably drive it to Nashville and back just to be safe. ;)

This. Just a hunch, but it could be that folks with the inside cam get hands-free fsd a bit sooner than those who have to prove they are paying attention with the wheel. It’s pictured in the rendering.

In my state, at least, trade-in value is deducted from the purchase price of the new vehicle BEFORE computing sales tax on the new car. i.e. If you trade-in, rather than sell your old car, you don't pay sales tax on the equity you already have in your existing vehicle. While I probably could...

Ordered 1/28/21 LR 5 seat 22” wheels White on White FSD

Resistance is futile. It turns out that buying TSLA to save for a Tesla is legit.

I'm trying to figure this out too. In terms of potentially "catching a spike", I placed a limit sell order as a "DAY + EXT", which can execute through e*trade any time between 7AM-8PM EST. I chose this over a LOC order because I would take this price before, after or during the closing cross...

Similar to TD: With eTrade, I'm only seeing standard trade duration options available on the main site, but the separate "Power e-trade" web app shows a wider selection, including: "On the Open", "On the Close", and "Day Plus Extended Hours"

Not sure about IBKR, but the screenshot is from NASDAQ

Glad you were able to buy back with minimal damage. FWIW, after I made a similar fat-fingered move a while back, someone here recommended calling my broker, which I did. In that case, E-trade was able to reverse the trade for me. I sweated for about an hour while they figured it out, but...

Thanks MXWing for sharing this doc! In a potential case that there may be fewer shares available during the closing cross on 12/18 than are needed, the Nasdaq FAQ doc states that the imbalance shares count is reported in real time from 3:55-4PM. I could be wrong, but I am guessing that if...

That's AMAZING, thanks again for your hard work! + you just gained a twitter follower ;)

Ahh, yes! Great idea, thanks!

Question for @FrankSG and/or @generalenthu : First, thank you BOTH for your generous contributions to the board! Frank, I've read all of your blog posts, and I make reference to your models often. Generalenthu, I've referenced your delta hedging tables a few times before, and I always pay...

I wonder if the tranche idea is as much about moderating the (de-balancing) of those other stocks as it is about slowing TSLA purchasing? With the sheer size of this inclusion, and the unpredictable nature of how it might play out, polling the investment community also could be seen as a...

Just a reminder to double check your confirmation screens before finalizing your orders, I guess. o_O E*trade is looking into reversing the mistake. Thanks @gabeincal, I was in a bit of shock. Edit: They were able to reverse my mistake. Back to long and strong. Sheesh.

Arggh. I fat fingered a trade. Meant to sell to close a single DITM call, accidentally closed many. I guess it's ok. I was planning to just sell enough to exercise the rest next year for tax purposes, but maybe I'm better off paying Long Term rates this year instead. Ugh - At least they...

I don't have time to read that article, but I'm assuming that it's about Tesla's unique ability to add thousands of dollars, per vehicle, in high-margin after-purchase software sales to their bottom line. ;) When was the last time someone butt-dialed $4k to legacy auto?

Robs livestream is a hilarious s-show because audio echo right now, but here’s his update on that chart. edit: Removed the bad livestream link. Most likely Rob pulled the video down due to the audio issues this am (which were hilarious). He mentioned that due to the tech issues, he will...
