    J1772 Charging for the Tesla Roadster

    On a whim I dropped them a line to ask about the J1772. Here's what I heard back yesterday: "Thanks for reaching out. The J1772 will be available in a approximately three months time." Probably best not to get too anxious...

    Tesla Roadster vanity license plates

    Before the production delays took hold I had the California plate "HOV OK" produced and held at the DMV. It's been released back into the general pool if anyone wants to see if it results in fewer inadvertent police stops in those HOV lanes. :smile:

    Random Roadster Sightings

    Decidedly off-topic, but I didn't know what to do with this find and was too lazy to start a "Random Tesla-Hat-Wearing-Celeb Sighting" thread. Sorry. :redface:

    Random Roadster Sightings

    Production/Delivery Status

    Production/Delivery Status

    Thanks! It's a saddle-colored interior, solid through the seats & headrest. No firm delivery date, but I guess they'll be ringing up any day now. Same here!

    Production/Delivery Status

    First post here -- Hi Folks -- and thanks for taking these pictures. That car #54 would be mine; glad to see it queued up for powertrain installation! #54 will be living in Oakland, CA. One of the few garage additions that won't leak prolific amounts of oil on its first night at home. :smile...
