I missed waiting in line. I ordered/reserved on 4/3/2016 11 pm gmt from California. My best guess is that my # is about 266,000 to 270,000. Got my print yesterday! WooHoo. Thank you Elon & company p.s. read that the #1 in line get the car for the $1000 they put down. Next time I will be in line.

If any of the rideshare or insurance lines go live Tesla will need to capture enough data to provide 'Black box" aircraft accident type data to any accident victims. The data needs to be available for some time for unreported accidents as well.

Tesla limits all battery packs to safe levels of discharge. the inverter has sensors for current draw and the computer adjusts output. if the current exceeds safe levels the fuse blows. When you go to Insane or Ludacris the computer changes the allowed draw.

If someone hacks the supercharger connection and enables charging to his car then 120A 400V rushes down the cable and his batteries start smoking teaching him karma. that and 10 grand get him back on the road with new parts.

A baby seal comes into a bar. bartender asks, what do you want? Anything but a Canadian club!

If you do not reserve you never get one! they are built to order for each customer. reserve now and you will be late 2018 if the new production goals are met. when you get the notice to configure yours ask what the time from configure-payment to delivery lag time is. then you can delay if needed.

Over half of all Teslas are California cars.
