    Model X price cuts- yet again

    Would be cool if the pricing has nothing to do with the Cybertruck and instead Tesla was waiting for Lucid to show its hand with the Sapphire. Now here comes the Plaid+ with 500 miles range, 8.8 1/4 mile, 0-60 in 1.8 all for $124,450. Faster with more range than the Sapphire for half the price...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    It’s fairly obvious to anyone who pays attention to Elon Musk that the reason the compact car is taking so long is because Elon is a perfectionist. There will be 2 compact cars released for differing markets. For markets on the metric system the exterior dimensions will be 1.69m wide by 4.20m...

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    You can call TD and ask for a lower margin rate. Point out that other brokers offer lower rates and provide those rates to the TD rep you speak to. $350k is a good amount to be collecting interest on so I doubt they’d want to let you go elsewhere. You can buy cheap puts to get out of PNR.

    Is converting your account to portfolio margin an option? It could increase your available margin in order to get rid of the margin call for the time being depending on how E*trade calculates risk based on your holdings.

    Q1 earnings will be that week or the week prior. IV for those will likely rise after Tesla announces the ER date in the next couple weeks or so and the date nears. Not sure how much difference that will make or if it factored in your thinking but just wanted to put it out there.

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Happy new year all! On 12/30 Tesla left me a voicemail then a few minutes after sent a text letting me know my car was ready and asking if I was ready to take delivery that day or on 12/31. I declined because I already had plans with my family and I didn’t have my payment ready as this delivery...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    People who want the quickest accelerating production car are willing to pay for it. Tesla knows this and has priced accordingly. The quickest accelerating production SUV doesn't have the same ring as the quickest accelerating production car nor does it give the same sense of pride to those who...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Hahaha. My kid has been bugging me to get a car he can stand up in without having to tilt his head. Might only be a couple years at the most until he cant do that anymore though. Of course, that‘s not the only reason for wanting an X. Does anyone have an X they can take the inside floor to...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Hi Fulkth, Congratulations and I can tell you’re enjoying your car. You have been beyond helpful to many so I have a favor to ask. Do you mind measuring the distance from the floor to the ceiling when in the middle of the 2nd row and also the distance from the floor to the ceiling when just in...

    I’d much rather close out BCS at a loss than BPS at a loss.

    I love my 3, love the X, love the S, and the Y is ok. I have a CT and a X on order. Curious, what do your kids hate about the X? Do they have kids of their own?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Speculation is fun. Speculation time. If this is about a stock split then the year 1910 could refer to a 19:10 or 1.9:1 stock split. Isn’t 1.9:1 what people here have said is the most TSLA can split without shareholder approval? I guess the tweet time of 1:10pm could be October 1. So after the...

    He is a tough grader giving the best all around car ever made a 73 out of 100. I’m glad he’s not grading my kids’ assignments! On a different note IV seems to be going up. I bought some Oct 15 800 calls earlier this morning with the SP around 660. Those calls are now up about 6% with the SP at...
