    Blog Bollinger Motors to Unveil All-Electric Sport Utility Truck

    I am hoping this is a genuine “utility” vehicle and not a new competitor in the Nantucket/Santa Barbara crowd Defender driving market, which would price it 60 to 100k. I would like to see something plain Jane 25 to 30 k price range.

    Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!

    I'm actually checking every few hours. Never been so into an announcement. 46 minutes left on east coast. Yawn.

    New S60 > S75 @$2k -- Not Really a Deal?

    I just upgraded my 70 to a 75. Took me about 1 minute to decide. $500 dollars? Seriously? I think the 60-75 upgrade was like $6,000 just a few months ago and is now 2k. I have driven several long road trips and have never had any issues. I was content with the 70 but this is a good deal...

    Lack of home charging on trip is stressful

    This is an interesting post. I picked up my 70D last summer and have done several road trips over 1000 miles. I charge exclusively at SCs. My first trip I forgot my charging cable at home. I've actually never charged anywhere but SC or at my house. SO, here are a few things I'll mention...

    8.1 Easter Egg!

    This is another example of a great company which we are lucky to enjoy. Show me another car company that even cares about input from the owners of their products. They are actually going to take my kids' drawings at Tesla? They are going to read what owners write and study our behavior, wants...

    Elon says no Central Speedometer

    Is this it?

    Elon says no Central Speedometer

    Well, we don't have knobs in the Model S, and we seem to be getting by without them. I suppose I can learn to be without a "speedometer" in front of me. It's Elon's world, I just live in it! (and enjoy his cars)

    Elon says no Central Speedometer

    Is there some information out that I missed about the interior of the Model 3? I haven't seen anything but a mockup.

    Security Guards at Super Charger Stations

    ...Oh, and having an IP/WIFI at a charging station would be pretty sweet.

    Security Guards at Super Charger Stations

    I was thinking about security the other night, late at night while charging during a long road trip. I end up on the road quite a bit late at night and living in the midwest, quite frequently I pull into a station and find nobody is there. I'm always happy to see another car charging. There...

    How often do you have to reboot the display?

    Not once in nine months, 8k miles. I always update and have added no "apps" - i recently started listening to podcasts with no issues.

    Choosing CPO is tough. Actual pics?

    Take the plunge. It's only money. I wouldn't buy one without autopilot, I'd even pass a P model to get autopilot. My 70 is still faster than anything I've seen on road...except another Tesla, and we're too busy waving at each other to race

    Chevy Bolt screams middle America like Walmart Khakis

    Middle America doesn't want a silly looking car. Why would anyone want cars that look like that for those prices? The fossil fuel burning car companies make token EVs for what they see as millinial man-buns; the Detroit car makers are just not that serious about renewable energy or EVs, and the...
