Could you give us a price range of what you paid for MS with 7800 miles on it? Interested to here how much depreciation expense you saved.

Whats the point of a video like this? If you want a 26k car or a 70k car and you dont care about price, pick the model s! ... oh thanks.

If TSLA hits $100 I'd be very interested in buying again. Love picking up stocks after a market overreaction.

After reading through the last ten pages, I'm glad I found this post. If you really want to be a good investor, you have to take a step back from everything. If you're trading your retirement account and you retire in 4 months, you're a fool. Period. But, if you say you're in it for the long...

Initial investment in TSLA: 65 shares x $32 = $2080 Sold today: 20 shares x $152 = $3040 Still have 45 shares left just in case the stock keeps running like it has, but I can't see myself holding on for too much longer. Held the stock for the past two years. Best investment decision of my...

Always enjoy watching Tesla events but the music is generally, and last night especially, horrendous. I know they have a brand image to keep up but the funky disco beats on repeat just sounded so obnoxious I could hardly watch. Tesla - get a new DJ!

Wow. I dont have a lot of insight to add here, but to read all of this is pretty ... I don't know the right word. Fishy? Shady? Very interesting to see that other autos are in fact this concerned about Tesla.

Wow, that was poetic.

Agreed with the first two responses. As much of a headache as this has made, Tesla has the resources to hire good lawyers and fight this battle. I think at this point it would compromise the integrity of the company to back down to the auto dealers. Also, I think Elon's reaction to the...

Pretty ballsy asking for a job at the end. That was hilarious.

Video!

Wow. Elon was really emotional speaking about the perversion of democracy. Not sure why Tesla is getting shot down in Texas and North Carolina, but I think Tesla will prevail. What a guy.

Did some math cause your statement intrigued me. There's about 2.8 million employees working for the federal government. Say a roll of TP is $1, and you need a new roll every seven days for every person. 3 million people x $1 per roll x 52 rolls per year = $156 million per year in toilet...

Just wanted to say reading the commentary on here has been wonderful. Avg buy price right now is $31.50! Been watching tesla aggressively for the past two years and you guys have made this an absolute joy, so thanks to all. Trying to convince dad to buy a couple hundred shares tomorrow.

Motor Trend New Motortrend article about driving the Model S till empty. Great review, but unfortunately the Model S didn't make it the full 265 miles (I thought it was supposed to reach +400 in certain conditions)? 2012 Tesla Model S Specs - Motor Trend

For as old as I imagine most of you are, there are some real babies in here. I am long TSLA and am fully accepting that I may lose my entire 125 shares if this company goes belly up, but if you say you're long then mean it. Days like this where TSLA is down 7.32% actually make me smile. I'm...

Hurray historical context! Seriously, thanks to all who have been posting. When I mentioned adding context to posts a week ago, I didn't expect a ton of people to notice my post, but everything has been much easier to follow since then. Please keep it up!

Lets keep it all in perspective. TSLA has tons of potential, but how many other companies are valued at 3.5 billion after pumping out just 2100+ Roadsters and promises of a second and third generation model? IMO, TSLA is incredibly overvalued, but I still think it's potential is so large that...

Not at all, but it's just confusing to follow sometimes. For example, Daniel said this earlier, And I have little idea to what he is referencing. As a finance major, I love looking at numbers all day long, but when others have commentary I like to try to follow along with what they're...

This is easily my favorite thread on the website, but I have one suggestion to make. Anytime you start a post with something like "Wow look at what the market did" please include some facts, like the stock is up 3% in just a few hours, or shorts have increased by another 1 million. It's hard...

Wow you're like the opposite of a fanboy. Apple has been nothing but great for me. I hope Tesla continues to be good to me both in stock price and when I can finally afford one of its cars (at least 6 years out I imagine).

Doubt I'll be able to find a screenshot anytime soon but there was definitely a Roadster in the movie Ted that was just released this week. (Great movie btw!)

Heinlein's Razor! Just learned about this yesterday. Funny how things like that work out. I think downward pressure on the stock is only delaying the inevitable so I invite it. Can't wait for the day/week/month when Tesla absolutely explodes gaining double digit percents back to back to back.

So I had a dream last night that Tesla stock fell to $7 and I was personally yelling at Elon. What would you guys do if the stock price lost 75% in a day? Hold on and hope for a recovery I would assume would be most everyone's answer. But ya. Me and my 120 shares were very scared this...

I wonder what would happen to the company (and as an investor, its stock price) if and when the company actually begins advertising. I know there are TONS of people out there who would die once they saw how sexy and incredibly great this car is but word of mouth just hasn't spread quickly...

Ah.. just now starting to see these EPA numbers. I wonder what Elon thinks of the EPA providing the 265 figure as opposed to his 300 number. Are EPA tests extremely difficult? I can't imagine they rate cars on MPG/MPGe based on driving over 55+. Maybe just a lot of stop/go/hills/cold weather?

In his article, Tesla Ships First $100,000 Model S Amid Uncertain Deamand author Alan Ohnsman states, The first 10 “Signature” performance versions are to be picked up by their owners at Tesla’s Fremont, California, factory. They’re priced at $95,400 to $105,400 and able to go 265 miles (426...

Completely agreed. Brammo makes some beautiful motorcycles that look really fun to drive. Can't wait to buy one when I'm older. If I can't outright afford an electric car in 5 years, I may simply buy a used prius + electric motorcyle from brammo using the bike for 90% of trips.

"Tesla has a lot riding on Model S's success" No kidding. Any company has a lot riding on its primary product for the forseeable future...

Uhoh. Sounds like this could be the next anti-EV argument. Why buy an EV? They cost thousands more to purchase, and you can't even take them through a car wash! Hope you like manual labor!

Hey guys, I'm a college student who's been eagerly following Tesla for about the past 6 months or so. What do you guys think of TSLA offering dividends in the future? Maybe after Bluestar is released? Also, I bought in a 23 & 27. Loving this rise!

I've been thinking about this for a while. That's definitely a stretch.

So sad this isn't working! Went to show my dad the reveal and the website obviously wouldn't load. Now he's asleep, and I'm patiently waiting to see this new beautiful model. Oh well, at least the stock is up to $32+!

Student at the University of Kentucky!

I'm definitely thinking about buying a few more shares if the price dips any lower. I agree with others that once Model S deliveries begin people will see that Tesla is a legitimate company that can scale up well and get out of its Tesla Roadster niche that it's in.

Wow! Absolutely agree. I have never thought of how useful it would be to compare total cost of ownership side by side with initial cost and cost minus government subsidies. Really great thinking.
