They've published a revised PDF with the correct headline: Tesla Model 3 Is Best Selling Car in California New Vehicle Market; RAV4 is Light Truck Leader https://www.cncda.org/wp-content/uploads/Cal-Covering-1Q-20-REVISED.pdf

I agree; I have not found a single post of @KarenRei that I found bothersome; almost always she provides insight and a depth of thinking rare here or on any other forums I'm in.

Yup agreed; it seems really premature but thought I'd check with @Ggusev just in case!

Last week I wouldn't have thought of it but then saw this yesterday: Tesla Oakville now calling Model Y reservation holders confirming deliveries next month [Update] - Tesla in Canada

Y?

If only he'd bought shares and left them on Autopilot

This is a solved problem for the past several years. At my company we had a side project to do exactly what you're describing -- taking satellite images and classifying them. Not only did we get > 92% accuracy (technically f1 score of 0.89) to detect clouds, roads, rivers, vegetation and to some...

And still volume constrained by volume supply. But doesn't matter since a well-priced Hyundai Kona EV in 2020 will likely take a sale from a Hyundai Tucson before it affects Tesla. The EV market growth will be massive.

How is that bogus and what does market cap have to do with revenue? Apple Reports 1Q 2019 Results: Nearly $20B Profit on $84.3B Revenue, Second-Best Quarter Ever Despite Earnings Warning gives the breakdown... 21% of revenue in this last quarter was from Services and Wearables which represents...

Apple Watch (health, medical EEG), Airpods, Services... they haven't been standing still and they make more $ from just these product than most S&P 500 companies.

I agree; I was making fun of the commentary but I wish they would succeed. But it goes to show the challenge all the ICE makers will have to get across the chasm to profitable EVs. The lack of a competitive product in their pipeline may be one reason that Volvo cancelled their IPO.

Yup same thing happened last night at about -9C. Also it was more damp frozen then dry so I think that exacerbated the problem. The charger usually provides 240V / 48A service and it ramped down to 16A when T was amber. Took a hairdryer and ran on low to warm up the port for about 5 minutes...

Totally agree! I was driving our Model 3 in the middle of nowhere at a provincial park last weekend and as I drove past a small herd of teens on bikes, I heard "whoa a Model 3!" and "that's totally sick!" The number of times younger kids and teens come up and ask about the car and knowing...

That is true; it's not a perfect analogy. Even though SpaceX has huge public awareness because of the launches, average consumers would not care if they were public or see the FUD. But if SpaceX was a public company, would you expect the FUD to be higher or the same? I think it would be...

Exactly and, if it wasn't clear in my original reply, that's why I think a private TSLA will be a quieter more focused Tesla and be judged by their products and their achievements, not by the financial sausage required to achieve it.

How much FUD do you hear about SpaceX?

You literally just said that "the issue is that they [Chinese companies] can't make a billion of them at $100/KWh". Yet you don't think that an order-of-magnitude reduction of expensive and hard-to-find cobalt is substantial? I'll clarify -- the moat is Tesla engineering's choices (cylindrical...

I'd guess though not quite as high energy density nor as low in cobalt. The German company that did a teardown on the model 3 cell saw 2.8% cobalt whereas everyone else is still aiming to do high production at 10% (8-1-1 cells). So, I think there's some extra moat than the GF.

Daimler denies the Handelsblatt report and says they are on target and there are no delays. But then says "... a spokesman at Daimler’s Stuttgart headquarters said it has not yet specified a launch date for the EQC model." :) Daimler says electric cars on target after report of launch delays

They would if they financed and the increase of $100-150/month was completely offset by reduction in fuel and ongoing maintenance costs. This doesn't even take into account the ride quality, driving capability, storage, etc. would be far superior than a Camry. That's how you expand the market.

Ah good... they're on the Tesla map for 2018 and Oakville SC doesn't have the superchargers so wasn't sure if they'd be at the new SC. Either way, it's good to hear they're still planning to install in Uptown.

I'd heard rumours about it as well but not the location so it's great to see it's actually happening! Kitchener-Waterloo has a lot of Teslas for the size of the population, likely because of the tech community here. I know several people in the neighbourhood on the Model 3 waiting list. Next...

That's great! Anyone know how you get to it?

Yes I had this happen 2 days ago. It snowed a lot so I thought it was ice on the roof but we had the exact same image and the override didn't work for us either. After driving to another location, the FWDs worked again. It hasn't happened again, with more snow and colder temperatures so...

I was just about to order a set. I saw a set of 4 on Ebay for $164 US but just the TPMS (Set of 4 TPMS Tire Pressure Sensors 2012-2017 Tesla Model S X | eBay) ... not sure if this set includes the sensor nuts?

Thanks @dmd2005! I ordered the gray turbine rims and the code worked along with free shipping (save $400 to Canada). I wanted the staggered tires and these look great. I'll be taking them to Kal Tire to get the Hakkas' installed.

Thanks!

Are the Replika rims available in silver? Are there other rims anyone has looked at? There's a Kal Tire in town and I want to get the Hakka R2s but not so sure about the R187 in gray.

Yup, same thing though not every time. It seemed to have started a couple of releases ago? I don't remember the delay when we first picked it up (May 2017).

I have the same on my X on driver side but passenger side is smooth. SC is ordering a replacement part is it's definitely a defect.

Yes, on mine it says LTE or 3G depending on which service the car connects to. Doesn't have the name of the carrier though.

Well in that case it's time for a drive! Just gotta load up the car with the kids and mother-in-law. Just kidding, I like my mother-in-law :)

Haha! I can't possibly be the only one with this update!

Thanks for the link! Just signed up and entered. First post! :)

Got a notification of a new release which was surprising since the car was already at 17.24.30. Updated just finished and new release is 17.26.17. So far, nothing obvious in UI or web browser and release notes are the same as before. Might be the kernel upgrade? Will be taking out the X...

Doesn't appear to be any changes on UI and release notes are identical to 17.24.30. The web browser seems the same as well. Will have to take a drive later to test out AP2 but I suspect this is the actual kernel upgrade release.

Ok, my Model X just got an upgrade to 17.26.17. Installed and am about to find out what it is but I suspect this is the kernel upgrade.

Yeah I didn't understand why it took so long either. It's a long wait, but worth it!

Yes, we did receive the X! We picked it up on May 4; it was ready for pick up on May 2. The estimated delivery range moved around a bit and actually changed to April 29-May 15 as the final updated estimate. So overall, it looks like about a month which is what our DS said it would be for...

We'd struggled as well where we decided to switch from a December order for a 90D to the 100D in February and gave up the free Supercharging. So yeah, this feels great!

I picked up my MX 100D last night and it has the new version of the original style, not the new-new flat design. Also, the DS noticed that the switches for 3rd row access are new and they are... flatter matte design I think. I'll take a closer look tonight and post a pic.

Picking up our MX 100D tonight! Finally, no more sleeps.

Same here! Great video.
