A couple of quick thoughts, but when reading, realize that I have no idea where you live and if state regulations change anything, or what types and levels of car insurance you have, but here we go. Don't try to fight this yourself -- if you haven't already done so, contact your insurance...

Rockbus: Wall Street agrees with you, as they view this as another Elon non-starter that will appeal to a very narrow market of people who don't need a pickup truck, therefore Ford, GM and Dodge are giving off a big sigh of relief. To me, it looks like a botched combination of a jacked up...

Having ordered an taken delivery of a new 2015 P90D, paying $3,000 for the upgrade from an 85Kw battery to a 90Kw battery to get the extra range, I very quickly realized that I wasted $3,000, because 99% of the time, my daily need was less than 50 miles/day. I would have been way ahead with...

Supercharging was never an issue for me, as 99% of my driving was within 200 miles of my home round trip, and I'd just plug it into my 240V line when I got home. If I needed to go on a long distance trip and there was no superchargers available to me (common problem in states with sparse...

Jerseygirl18: Au contraire, people like me do go back. I'd driven S class Mercedes for 20 years before ordering a 2015 P90D. At first I was gaga over it. But the things I really liked were the massive torque from the electric motors, the lane assist and the smart cruise control. I was...

After I turned in my 2015 P90D 6 months prior to the end of the lease (I was disgusted with Teslas policies and service), I went back to Mercedes. They have an Enterprise desk right there next to the service writers, cars are always available and the fleet consists of low mileage C class and...

When I bought my P90D in late 2015, I considered the 7 seat option, and I was told the 2 extra seats could be removed from the car if I needed to, but with that 7 seat option, the 3 normal rear seats were locked in place, i.e. they could not be folded down flat, which is something that I need...

Daniel, this is not a sudden new problem occurring as a result of ramping up production. Tesla simply doesn't know how to deal with customer problems, but the bigger issue is that from how they operate (actions speak louder than words), they flat out don't give a crap about their customers...

This is sad. No way to treat a customer. After I turned in my P90D that I had leased, I bought a 5 year old CPO Mercedes from a MB dealership. There was an area on the drivers seat that was noticeably dark, I suspect from the PO leather belt. I bought the car with them giving me a "We Owe"...

Agree. Another "miss" on corporate guidance, but typical. I have a hard time seeing diehard Ford F-150 buyers -- specially diesel heads -- flocking to a "cyberpunk" pickup that's lower and easier to get into. If anything, most hardcore owners jack their trucks up to look badass. But maybe...

Papafox: I respect your having your rightful opinion, but you present it as if certain entities are out to manipulate the price with the purpose of hurting TSLA. If you have the same trading experience that I do, you know that shorting and buying Puts has been a bread and butter risk...

Gwgan: As I currently don't have a position in TSLA, I don't monitor their short interest or Put/Call ratio, but given its inherent volatility, 20% could be right. I accept that. If TSLA spikes up, those shorts are going to get their heads handed to them in a big way. But, I attribute it...

The boy was wrong in pulling out, but as seen in the video, it appears that you took no action to abruptly swerve and avoid the accident, rather continuing straight and hitting him. Is that due to a bad camera angle? Regardless, as others have said, I feel sorry given that your car got...
