My plan definitely requires a few technological differences between the semi architecture and the existing Tesla vehicle architecture. I am hoping with Battery day and more details to be released on the Semi soon into production that it will be able to do what I want. The key factors would be...

Back in the summer of 2011 I read an article about Elon Musk and the roadster and this new project they were coming out with. My brother and I drove two hours to Princeton, NJ where they had a preproduction prototype of the Model S on a static display at some golf course with a Roadster for the...

I hope to make a Semi into a custom built expedition vehicle. That is build a cabin on the back and use it for some off grid camping and driving around the world. There are a host of challenges here though. Here’s my initial list of questions: Is the frame built like a traditional heavy...

Today put me over the threshold of becoming a teslanaire! The first stock I ever bought outside of a 401k was TSLA back in 2013. Thanks to all of the people on this forum, I learned how to trade stocks and options in only TSLA of course. I kept track of every position, in and out, ups and...

I like where you're going Randy. This will probably be what we end up doing for the short term as well. Especially since my wife believes the kids are much more safe in car seats with seats designed for them rather that the dinette and couch in the rv anyway. But it means a lot more driving...

I see it as being much more flexible than that. For instance if I want to change the destination, like not drive as far today so we switch to a closer campground en route. Or even change the destination all together, or stopping at tourist attractions or restaurants. Having the car with you...

I am definitely talking about FSD here. I didn't even know there was something called Follow Mode currently functioning in the AP software. I just used "follow mode" as a term to describe what I want my FSD Tesla to do. But more specifically, to stay with a moving target rather than just GPS...

We recently purchased a motorhome and I was looking forward to using my upcoming model 3 as a tow vehicle. However I don't think it's going to be possible to tow it without a trailer or a dolly due to the regen issues and the fact that you can't do it with an S or an X. But then it hit me that...

One thing I haven't seen mentioned here is the Motortrend Awards. I just got an email for their award presentation which is tonight, and Tesla is a finalist for both 2017 Car of the Year with a redesigned S60/75 and 2017 SUV of the year with the Model X. Their initial judge of the X was a bit...

41 years old, investor for about 36months

According to Personal Capital, I've got 26% of my investable assets in TSLA, and another 24% in tesla options. That's out of a total near $800k.

I haven't posted much here, but I have been an avid follower of Tesla, TSLA, and TMC for several years now. In 2011, I switched jobs and rolled over my 15 years of 401k into a personal Ira and figured I would try my hand at the stock market. For 15 years my investment history was nothing but...

On the UK version since the Trunk is called a Boot, will the Frunk be a Froot? Inquiring minds want to know! -Wayne

I recently rolled over an IRA into Fidelity and applied for options trading as well. I got approved for a similar level 2. I then had to fill out another form and physically mail it in to them for approval to do spreads, but that is as far as the margin is allowed in that account. Thanks, Wayne

Following your posts here is almost like insider trading! Keep up the good work, LOL!
