I want to document this right now so that the Tesla cheerleaders can jump all over me but then I can refer back to this post in one years time. The Model 3 will bankrupt Tesla. The bottleneck will get worse, the "cancelation of orders" dam will burst in the next 6 months (Americans hate waiting for anything) and that will be the beginning of...
Enough is enough. Musk's refusal to settle is bewildering, and hurts many people. I hope he gets kicked out of the CEO role, even if that hurts me even more financially. Tesla will do fine with him as a Chief Product guy, and with his ownership stake, he could get done whatever needs to get done anyhow, without being CEO. *I haven't been able...
With these new MCU's and no possibility of a retrofit, that will easily knock 4-5k off the trade in/resell value.
Reading your twitter history. It’s obvious you are just being a troll as it relates to autopilot. It’s impossible for one person to constantly have issues with autopilot. If you don’t like the car or Tesla or autopilot- get another car
Elon tweeted "They also poured the concrete & built the whole assembly line using scrap we had in warehouses. And it’s way better than the other GA line that cost hundreds of millions!" Doesn't sound like a good idea.
This whole thing tarnished my image of Elon forever. Billionaire calling someone a pedophile with no evidence, pretty much the worst type of accusation you can make about someone. Then gloats about getting away with it... I guess we're used to Billionaires crapping on little people and smiling about it these days. Too bad Elon has joined...
Was there really that much damage? I mean, if the car can't take a hit like that without scarring, that's pretty thin skin on the door panel. I've had things hit my car harder than that door with no damage. Still doesn't excuse the carelessness of the SUV driver. Do you have a pic of the damage?
How many times has Elon lied about getting profitable? How many times has he failed? And what about the lawsuits currently forming and Tesla is required to build allowances for these lawsuits? They are built over the P&L hence influencing Q3 results significantly (US GAAP). And what about the latest SeekingAlpha Article stating that Q3 results...
Now is probably the worst time to buy. Model S refresh coming soon Questionable Q3 production/delivery results CEO off the rails Executive team leaving en masse Tax credits set to phase out Unlimited supercharging phased out Any two of those would be a hard wait-and-see for me. YMMV.
What interested me in the tesla model 3 in the first place was the self driving capabilities; and I knew the software was an extra cost option. That option on the model S added about 10%; so I expected to pay about $4000 extra for it on the model 3. Other than that, the features which come standard on all other $35,000 cars (power windows,...
When a poster queried Elon about the lack of instrumentation, Elon responded by asking the poster what kind of instrumentation he needed when taking a taxi. While that may have some validity for those who pay $8000 extra for FSD, for everyone else, accessing any control requires looking at the bottom of the center display for the correct icon...
The new chairperson is a "business as usual" pick - no impact or disruption to Tesla. It's most likely neutral to the stock price. It's a disappointed choice. Tesla has a chance to bring in someone who is strong in business, operation, manufacturing, or technology, someone who can complement Elon and transition Tesla to a more organized and...
I want to first preface this by explaining my ownership experience with my Model 3, my first EV, and share some of my thoughts since having the car for a year and a half. I think everyone on the forums can share in my opinion on the car and overall outlook. I absolutely love my model 3, and it has been one of the best cars I've ever owned and...
Well, my Y has 1,000 miles on it. When I went out to the garage, the left rear tire was flat flat. Since I haven't had a flat tire in about 40 years, I hadn't paid much attention to the tires when reading the manual. So I called the Roadside Assistance, assuming that a Tesla rep would drive up and fix the tire. After a while someone texted...
I support Tesla’s vision and have always recommended them to friends and coworkers. With the latest firmware, I was able to try Autopilot for the first time and would like to buy it - but I’m having a hard time justifying the purchase. If I had to bring the car in for service to have them install additional sensors or cameras, then I’m all...
Hey! It’s not my credibility that has hit zero, it’s Elon Madoff....
I'm a big Elon Musk fan. I even hugged him once in a bar. But he has said things about the Model 3 that have been deceptive, given last night's event. Let's list some of them. Please contribute if you know of others! Model 3 reveal part 2, which is going to be closer to production, will take things to another level: No it didn't. There...
The MIC Model Y is definitely a notch above the MIU Model Y. Then we have the gorgeous update to the Model S and X. The US Model Y now looks dated. Seems like Tesla is communicating to US customers, “we don’t care about you.” The US Model Y customer has really delivered for Tesla. Why not feed/reward the machine?
She did the right thing. She thought an animal was being endangered and called the police. The police learned something. No harm done.
I don't want to be "that guy", but BMW has been making a very popular and successful car since 1986 called the M3. Many of you have owned one, I have owned 2. We simply can't refer to the Model 3 as the M3. It would be like Burger King coming out with a new hamburger and calling it the Big Mac. To this day every time someone refers to their M3...
