He must hang out near the Fire Swap

I bet you're Xtra Xcited. Wishing you an Xtremely Xcellent delivery and Xciting Xcursion. too much? :wink:

Those numbers must be without mirrors because the 2016 Ford Explorer is 90.2" with mirrors.

Was thinking the same thing when I read this. Just adding up the Model S options one can get well above $25k easily. If they price the X single % above Model S, the Founder's Series base price will have to be ~$110,000 and include most upgrades standard. If I remember correctly they did...

DECODED Only believe every other word that Bonnie types.

Gigafactory partners/investors? Details of why they purchased the additional land surrounding gigafactory? Model S refresh? P105D? Oh, the possibilities! If it's like any of the other press conferences, buy the hype, sell the news.

US markets are closed Friday for the 4th of July holiday weekend. Tesla will probably release numbers on Friday but the US market won't be able to react until Monday. The only thing I can think that may push us higher over the next two days is if Tesla advises the date of the Model X first...

Cars don't retain value like diamonds do. If a diamond sits in storage for a year it will have roughly the same value. Inflation/deflation would have an affect on pricing, but that would apply to almost all goods. The age, milege and condition of a car vs cost new dictate perceived value...

It does appear that Tesla is limiting listings to 40 max per location. Chicago, Los Angeles & San Francisco are maxed out. Why they are doing this doesn't make sense to me. What's the point of only showing a portion of your inventory when you control the pricing? Tesla is selling at least 1,000...

It's on the livestream link. 30 minute delay, was 8pm

It looks like they have changed the design of the second stage. It appears that the "skin" of the second stage stays with the first stage. The second stage slides out of the rocket shell most likely making the second stage less expensive and easier to manufacture. It would be interesting to know...

Terrible location if this address is true. The parking lot of a realty and optomitry office building? Texas RoadHouse is close by and Red Lobster is across HW95, but not what I would consider convenient in the winter. I would think they would have picked a location closer to I90, which is the...

Because of ZERO Superchargers? Some of us have to drive our ICE this weekend because we can't afford an EV with enough range to meet our daily needs. Sorry, I've lost all sympathy for those who get to drive the most progressive automobile on the planet but don't have Superchargers near by. ;)...

I've purchased cars in different counties in California than my residence and always paid the tax rate for the county I reside. CA tax on autos for out of state purchasers only applies if you take possession of the car in CA.

Grid storage, grid storage, grid storage. I'm guessing huge R&D investments in grid storage. When they were talking to Apple, it wasn't about an iCar. When they were talking to Google, it wasn't about autonomous driving. How many other companies are there that use a ton of energy that would...
