I’m a combat veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan. I’ve tried to embrace stoicism, because I’ve seen that there is so much that is beyond an individual’s control. I know that one of the dumbest things anyone can do is fall in love with a piece of metal. And yet, here I am. In love with a car. Buying my M3 was a great experience. Driving it 3600...
I wish you all could have shared in the experience today. We all were tearing up at different points. Seeing Jon walking along, deep in conversation, carrying the oxygen generator while walking and talking ... everyone throughout Tesla lit up with smiles, it was amazing. (The private tour went so long that we ran the golf cart (non-Tesla)...
Just a bit OT but, after hours and sort of Father's Day-ish. My kid has been working the GA4 line. I won't reveal much since I think that's prudent. But some color: Prob sweetest/nerdiest of my 3 kids. Also, most accident prone. Brilliant. Got fancy-school post grad quant degree in one year, now on way to PhD studies and stopped off at Tesla...
Only posting this stuff after hours since it is off hours, but I’d like if mods allow no more than one post per day by me like this: So to summarize, you all helped me learn then execute an investment strategy that let me buy a $50,000 car - of course a model 3. Like literally YOU ALL did this. I have 2 kids and this is a lot of money for...
[ATTACH] Mark Matousek is also looking for owner stories. I hope I helped legitimize Zach’s Pravduh tracker just a bit here :)
[MEDIA] Car drives itself. Mad Max mode enabled. Turn confirmation is disabled. The car basically drives itself, whenever you see a blue line in the middle it's driven by autopilot.
With the recent allegations by some Tesla drivers on the failure of Autopilot on their cars and the media jumping on those incidents, this is a quick primer for every Tesla driver (including spouses, siblings, sons and daughters) and Laura MacCleery, VP of Consumer Policy and Mobilization for Consumer Reports: Autopilot by definition is a...
Your point from this Friday post is well taken, @Fact Checking. It just occurred to me that people will develop an intolerance for auto exhaust in much the same way they suddenly switched to a position of intolerance with second-hand smoke. All of a sudden, the realization that I don't have to breathe poison changes everything. Much of the...
Quick update to my personal situation. I woke up this morning and felt significantly better. Much less fatigued than I have for the last 7 days. My wife is also starting to feel better. I am feeling very confident at this point that our Covid cases were very mild ones, and are going to stay that way. It is a great feeling. The worst part...
Today I got a weird private message from a one day old account @Niedermeyer who claims to be "Ed Niedermeyer, reporter for Automotive News", requesting that I identify myself to him to prove whether I'm Elon or not. :D Just to state the obvious: I'm not Elon, nor a Tesla insider or employee, nor am I affiliated with Tesla or with any of Elon's...
So, I just finished some initial testing of my latest modification to the yellow P85 (the one that has retrofitted autopilot hardware). Haven't gotten a lot of pics or videos together yet (roads have been wet from melting snow, so not great conditions for testing), but I can't resist sharing some initial details. So far the car is a ~570HP...
Today marks the completion of a 2-year wait for a Model 3. It's been a really long wait. So much anticipation. I've literally scoured google daily for Model 3 news for 2 years. And now there's a Model 3 in my garage, and I didn't think I'd have that many problems, but I do. Here goes.... 1) I have this Hyundai Sonata that I dunno if I...
[ATTACH] TSLA chart above [ATTACH] QQQ chart above What a day. We started with Monster Monday II but it devolved into Muddled Monday, instead. Here's what I think happened. As market close approached on Friday, we saw a large surge of buying into close. Part of that was in response to the macro surge, but part was the usual traders buying in...
To be more precise: Hit me, then ran over my face, then stopped the car, took a look at me, decided he had to kill me as now I could identify him (illegal immigrant, didn’t want to get shipped home....his words later on), then got back in the car, ran over me again in reverse, then dragged me 50’ as my body got wedged under the engine bay. My...
