    Go private options strategies

    Musk owns more than 50% of SpaceX and controls almost 80% of the vote. What if he can merge it with Tesla as a method to go private with or without other outside investors? I would think many would jump at the chance to own part of a Tesla/SpaceX company.

    Hi, I’m a short seller

    I am very lucky to own 2 Tesla's and 500 shares of stock. I started with 1,000 shares. Thank you Mr. Musk.

    New MCU model issues, anyone?

    Front License Plate

    Was told at Fashion Island, Ca sales office that a front license plate is not required for a model X or 3 because the license plate would be in front of the "bumper". But it is required for the S because it is behind the "bumper". Is this true?

    Model 3's Ride Quality

    jbcarioca said: ↑ Yes. BTW, I use nitrogen in my BMW in Brazil and in my S. A major advantage in bad roads is that is it less likely to lose pressure when subjected to road hazards. That is why aircraft use nitrogen; landing does produce sharp impacts. BTW, it's due to the larger nitrogen...
