Hoping someone with a Tesla (any Tesla, really) wouldn’t mind stopping by our hotel after work today. Looking for a nice electric car to make our front entrance look amazing. Will take 5 minutes of your time, and while you wait you can enjoy dinner and a drink on the house. We’re at the...

Would anyone be interested in bringing their Tesla by the Churchill Hotel today or tomorrow for 5 min photoshoot? The building needs a nice modern car out front or else it looks bare. Will pay for your dinner at our restaurant.

Last week I was invited inside to see the facility taking shape. The pictures below can't convey it's massiveness in person. It's HUGE. The stage it was in leads me to believe they can have the place running mid-March. It was very exciting to stand in the middle and imagine the place full of...

Hello TMC! I'm Zack (the local Model S owners still call my Gatoreight), I've been an avid TSLA fan since day one. Much like the rest of you (owners and non owners alike), I feel like a brand ambassador, praising the company and enlightening doubters at every opportunity. I'm an investor...

Sorry, I don't intend to hijack your thread. I personally prefer traditional coupe bodies, and with Tesla's low profile, swept-back design, I feel the coupe should look more like this:

Nice article about the outing on Jalopnik.com today. . . check it out here. http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/tesla-and-the-chasm-a-day-with-a-group-of-model-s-own-747762917 Looking forward to seeing some of you in Great Falls on Saturday.

Guys I have to say that I am blown away by the feedback here, this is definitely the most active section of the forum! Thank you all for the great advice. I think a few points made it very clear for me. While I understand the value of taking bigger risks at a young age, I believe in the value...

I'm a young, novice investor, and fortunately my passion for automobiles keeps me in the loop regarding auto-stocks. I don't invest a lot because I'm 26 and I still have a good amount of student loan debt. I made the call to buy Tesla shares at $30, confident the stock would skyrocket. I'm in...

Yes that was me! I look down on that garage everyday so I figured I would share the knowledge... My support will not slow down any time soon. Looking forward to meeting soon!

Hello TMC! I just got hired to manage the parking lot at Katie's Cars & Coffee in Great Falls, VA every Saturday morning. Today I met Paula and Biff and their amazing Model S/Classic Corvette combo, and they were extremely nice (the people and the cars)! There have been a few Tesla's and they...

This thread is hilarious. Not really the same but recently I was at an event and somehow Tesla came up in conversation. This guy turns to me and says, "oh yea, they're in all kinds of serious trouble. I saw it on 60 minutes. I don't think they'll last another 6 months." I reacted suddenly...

Hey guys, I'm not an owner (yet), I work next to the mall and I am madly obsessed with Tesla. Unfortunately I'll be out of town but I wanted to give you guys the scoop on the parking garages. The best place to take photos IMO would be the garage roof on the opposite side of the mall vs. the...

I drew this a few days ago for fun. . . not taking any "fact" into consideration. But I think it is worth sharing. I hope the cut and belt lines on the Model S make it to Gen3, but I think the front needs to be a little more aggressive IMO.

Here's a few camera phone pics I took over the last couple of days. Some pics show the showroom full, the others show the cars parked in the garage after the whole fire marshall BS.

A rep I talked to yesterday said they got around 13,000 visitors in their busiest weekend!
