Taken on face value, it did behoove (is that a word?) Tesla to get people into the new D models and buying the sale with a quick and easy way to trade in their original car and generate a new sale for a P85D perhaps would be a good thing, short term. Driving new-car sales is critical while the company is young.

How large are those sitting in Walmart stores? I stumbled across a post on Yahoo that talks about the CA S.G.I.P. program and pointed to a link.
I went to that page, pulled up the spreadsheet and started filtering.
I filtered by Customer Sector - removed Residential.
Then I filtered only to those setup with an Interconnect date.
I can't really figure out if the 11 are 29.99 in capacity (kilo watt) or 100, 200 and 300KW in size. I have to guess the 100+ sizes.
The data there shows the city that the installation was done in and the dates of the interconnect.
Interesting spreadsheet, the link to it is here:
Self-Generation Incentive Program
Look under the "Weekly Projects" link there.
