Nicely put. I lost over $100k today, but glad to be driving this car, and I see nothing but great things ahead. "It's only money" #FirstWorldProblems

Agreed, $194.50 after ER. TSLA has yet to have a blow-off top, and I see a move over $200, selling back to $150's. I think now is the time that this happens. Bets placed, will see what happens. Long NOV $180

In with Nov $180. Today's drop is no good, but lets see if AAPL can get the bulls moving again

BUMP Anyone upgrade yet? I'm waiting for a WI and MI supercharger to pull the trigger. Hopefully the run another "special" for discounted pricing.

Hello - I am looking for a quality shop in Chicago to take my Tesla in for: - Window Tinting - Install Gator's for tire/wheels Anyone have any good rec's? Searched Yelp and can't find a decent shop! Thank you in advance!

I noticed today that my Frunk has a slight dent where I usually do the second tap to latch it. Anyone else? I've been super careful because it does feel a bit flimsy.

If they give the 85k (which is likely), you must return the battery, or they will charge you the difference. That being said, as a 40k owner...I will most likely NOT upgrade since the cost of the swap is minor, compared to the $15k or so upgrade fee w/super charging. I would only take about...

Question: If you do a battery swap, what battery will you be getting? 40k = 40k Battery 60k = 60k Battery 85k = 85k Battery Or does everyone get the 85k ?

The "discount" ends on 6/30. Will you be upgrading? Waiting/hoping for a better discount? No upgrade? I'm still on the fence, but may pull the trigger.

After driving my 40 for about a month now, I don't think the $10k is worth it for the additional mileage. I also agree that down the line, they will cut the price lower and lower. It's free money to them at this point. The current "sale" is to juice their #'s. And BTW, I think they'll kill it...

Ditto, needs to be fixed

Thanks guys, I used the following link: http://cosmacelf.net/Home%20Made%20Adapters.pdf , and had my warehouse guy make it for me. Hope it works. I'll remember to dial down the Amperage to 16.

Reviving this old thread. I'm going to a hotel next week and would like to plug into the AC outlet (NEMA 6-20 240V, 20A). What is the easiest way to do this? Is there nothing "off the shelf" I can purchase to use as an adapter?

Agreed, $11k isn't really worth the extra few miles. I will be taking a 120+ mile trip soon, and I will report the details. Right now my usage is crazy as I am driving it as I stole the car - way too fun

Now that we've had our 40's for a few days, do you plan on forking over the $12,500 for the extended range and super charger access? I'm thinking about it!
