Got a radio flyer from referral code tonight. Christmas Eve! Darn thing won’t work. The battery doesn’t want to seem to stay on. Can’t figure out how to get it to work. It worked for a moment. The light switch worked and I tested the petal and it went. Now it won’t go. Please help! Thanks!!

Edmunds forecasts U.S. sales of 16.8 million in 2018. Cox Automotive last week said it projects the market to be 16.7 million, 100,000 more than it thought before the tax-reform bill was approved.
The Edmunds and Cox forecasts mirror a projection from Toyota this month that...
I contacted Porsche here in Vancouver. The guy quoted me a 135 to 160 canadian price range. Several media outlets as well as well as Porsche had stated it would be 80 American. 3000 deposit, refundable as long as they have not started building the car for you.

I have decided to try to get a Tesla for my next car because where I live traffic is horrible not only that my car takes up so much gas. So I applied for a couple car loans and was denied. The reason why is because I don’t have any loan history for as much as I’m requesting which is $89k. The...
Tesla's cash balance has varied between $3.0B and $4.0B in 2017 vs. its self-imposed minimum of $1.0B. As of September 30, Tesla had $3.5B of Cash on Hand, which means the "excess cash" balance was $2.5B, or comfortably enough to cover its planned CapEx to bring Model 3 to 5,000 per week by...

Electric ships have been popping up but most I hear are either ferry boats or short range shipping. For a half million ton oil tanker to be electric , it needs to be charged along its route. How feasible is it to have anchored or semi-floating wind/solar powered mega-chargers along busy...
Okay this might be a bit speculative for what we normally talk about here, but there's also a lot of folks here thinking about the long-term and specifically the long-term energy landscape. So: we're rapidly entering an era of (almost-)free, clean, ubiquitous energy. If we're at 1.7c/kwh solar...
If Musk really wants to rush the move to sustainability, he could take Spacex public and the merge with Tesla. This could bring in about 25 billion in new capital and put growth on steroids. I know he doesn’t need or want to do this, but times a waistin.

This morning I scheduled the annual service for my P85D at the Dania Beach SC. When I called the call went to voicemail so I left a message. Less than 30 minutes later the call was returned and I was offered a valet to pick up and return my car. I accepted then began to think about it.

It’s 2021. Tesla is producing cars at a rate of 2.5 million per year, across the Model Y, Model 3, Model X, and Model S. The Tesla pickup truck is also selling hundreds of thousands of units per year. In addition to these passenger vehicles, Tesla is also producing the Tesla Semi.

Wanted to get the group's thoughts on Jason vs Deepak. I can't help but think back fondly on Jason Wheeler.
Under Deepak, it seems like financials and operations get worse. Yes, ramping up should increase CapEx significantly, but I just felt that under Jason, we had a much tighter leash on Opex...

I purchased a 2017 Model S 75D in June. At the time the premium sound system was a stand alone upgrade for $2500. The gallery had vehicles on hand with both the base and premium options so I was able to do a full comparison before making a decision and it didn’t take long to realize the...

Nearly two years ago, in December 2015, I was fortunate to place an order for a new Model X 90D.
The anticipation of owning and driving a brand new, and at that time, relatively rare electric SUV made by Tesla had me walking on air for the six months I waited for my Model X to be produced and...
Tesla will presumably report in early November. I know many of you use options for trading to augment core positions in common stock. What y'all doing in that regard for Q3 earnings?
This is going to be tricky with the S curve and all, so the bragging rights should be that much more valuable. I will enter my guess as 8500.
Also, how this number evolves over time should be interesting to watch. You can always change your vote.
