    Oh boy, there is going to be some learning curve for model 3 owners

    I don't think it would be a good idea to plug in this person. Seeing how inconsiderate this person is, they might just drive off without unplugging first.

    Hawaii - Let's Count Teslas!

    I just went back home to visit my dad, and if there are 600 Teslas in Hawaii, then about 2% of them park in the HNL parking lot. I saw 4 Model Xs and probably 10 Model Ss, this was on two different days and both times there were about the same number of Teslas parking. Do they all work there...

    Is the backstory going to talk about the line in the PowerPoint chart?

    Driving to Vegas from LA for 1st time-- a couple questions

    I have the opposite reaction from your wife. I don't like to pass the same cars twice and wait behind the slow person in the fast lane going around the semis. So I would rather just drive at a slower steadier speed and not stop, but my wife and kids always have to use the bathroom at Barstow...

    Early reservations are worth more than $1,000

    I had a whole other thought process when it came to reserve the M3. I was thinking people were going to reserve the 2 limit just to get the points/mileage on the credit card then cancel once they get the points. You see this all the time when people buy money from the Treasury with a credit...

    What is Your Monthly Maximum Minimum Solar Output

    I only have a 3kW system in Southern California, but I get around 5-6 MWh a year with Enphase micro inverters. Low is usually in Nov/Dec about 150 kWh/month, high in Aug around 650 kWh. Although I have been having issues with my micro inverters lately, had to change 4 of them in the past year...

    Comparing Tesla Motors Club (TMC) and Tesla Motors (TM) forums.

    Thanks doug, if only you could do a tutorial on how to use this search engine. I searched for Martin, Martin Eberhard, Eberhard, etc and couldn't find him. There are already people with those user names and the search results only had one result. Either way, I just followed the Martin you...

    Working at SpaceX

    I work in the aerospace industry and unless you are buying something from a US company, ITAR doesn't concern you. I'm not positive, but I think ITAR is so an aerospace (or any US company) can't sell weapons to a foreign company unless the US government says so. As for working in the aerospace...

    Comparing Tesla Motors Club (TMC) and Tesla Motors (TM) forums.

    I'm not sure how I got to TMC, but I haven't really looked at the TM forum unless somebody links a post to there. I do know that I came here because Martin Eberhard and his wife posted here and I was reading their posts. It was fascinating reading what he had to say back then and how he was...

    New Forum Design

    Good job on making the threads 20 pages long. Bad job on not making it user customizable, hopefully I will be able to set it to 100 again.

    NEW POSTS (List Function) Needs Some Work

    I agree with both these posts and will add another one (that I already added to the New Forum Design Thread). Before I didn't have to login to have the new posts show up and I could mark all forums as read, now since I don't have the mark all read when not logging in I have to just guess about...

    After 25 years, I got stopped for no front plate

    People use to always tell me how many years they have gone without a tint ticket. Then one day I was driving in CA, a local police officer does a U-turn in the middle of the road just to give me a tint ticket. Not sure what was bugging him that faithful day, but I haven't put front tints on a...

    New Forum Design

    See, now D&D has made TMC fun. Everyday I can check back in and try to spot all the changes that were made during the day. I like the little icons. What I like even more is the location tags. Clicking on a persons location brings up a google maps of the place, now I get to learn about Canada...
