Separate names with a comma.
Is that true? Did they ask for it? Presumably not based on Musk's word that they asked for it.
OMG. This post speaks volumes. No words. Someday you'll look back on this and be ashamed.
It is. You have to sit in it. Seat is uncomfortably narrow. Car is very narrow. Materials tend to be cheaper harder plastics. It looks and feels...
Inconclusive. Autopilot uses the existence of cars around it to help guide its placement. Being right behind a car in the proper lane will guide...
Very consistent with Tesla prioritizing any model that has extra cost options above the base SR range. This continues the pattern. If/when they...
Good analysis, except I think it will likely be less than $45k in 2 years. Remember $60k is at most $52.5k after tax rebate, maybe $50k or less...
FYI: According to the EPA website, the Nissan Leaf is considered a midsize. 2018 Nissan Leaf
Most cars support CarPlay while Teslas do not. CarPlay or Android Auto let you do excellent navigation and other services, Pandora, Spotify,...
Totally agree and I think it is a valid concern. Filling at a gas station has the same concern, except thats usually for a few minutes where...
Its a matter of expectation. Elon shouldn't repeatedly set unrealistic expectations to the general public. If he had announced a $49k car that...
There is often an air of superiority here. The issue isn't always if someone is able to spend such amounts. It also comes to a question, is it...
Its a lie. My estimate wasn't adjusted "slightly later", it moved from early/mid 2018 to early 2019. Thats 9mo-1yr later. And the moved up an AWD...
I've always liked small cars that handle well. We've had VW Golfs in the past and sold our last one to lease a Nissan LEAF which we also liked...
I had not heard anything like that. In fact the opposite when they reordered dates. If Tesla had given this indication I would not have purchased...
Many were planning on $35k - $7.5k rebate. So it was a $27.5 net. That may turn into much higher as the tax rebate goes away and the base model...
I was incredibly upset when Tesla postponed the Model 3 SR another year and created new configurations that were reprioritized ahead of the SR. I...
I’ve been waiting for the model 3 since 2013. I thought I’d get a base model 3 this year but the estimate is now early 2019, same as new...
This is a great poll. I wonder if Tesla will need to make a $35k car or not. I’m very close to pulling the trigger on a new ICE and throwing in...
Elon has a goal to reach 30% gross margin. If he can achieve that sticking to premium car, no need to sell the 35k car. If they stick with a $50k...
Besides everything else, you normally enter the back seat of a two door car by folding the front seats. You don’t normally or easily climb into...
Tesla gets an enormous amount of positive press as well. Any move from Tesla is scrutinized. In general I think trying to hide problems will make...
This! This is what scares me the most. Passengers in the rear seats have no emergency release. No way to get out at all other than climb through...
I don't think anyone doubts that you saw them with a Model 3. The debate is if they somehow were associated with an owner reservation. This...
Are you sure they were non owners? I’ve run into several non owners who ordered through family who were owners or had bought a reservation etc or...
The rationale is thinking of a fully autonomous self driving car. The car takes you to work but then you let it drive strangers around for hire....
There are various discussions on this forum stating that both front and rear outside door handles do nothing except flip the switch to...
Turns out its not that simple either. Elon said they'd update the firmware so that the car would open the open the glovebox in the event of an...
That won't work either. AFAIK, the outside handles do not mechanically open the rear doors. You can't open the rear doors from the inside or...
Was that EV parking with a charger? Sure hope you didn't block a charger for someone who needed to charge. I've never understood the need to have...
If you don’t mind me asking, how much did you pay and how did you find it? I’d say keep the S.
Hopeful thought is that the Canadian's cutting in line is to defer US production to postpone when they reach 200k US cars. They may be able to...
Cancellations aren't going to materially affect your place in line. Its pretty simple right now. If you're a current Tesla owner, you should be...
Exactly. And if you were a non-owner and reserved today, you would get the same "early 2019" estimate for the short range car as someone who made...
Why is that any worse than what they're already doing. They're pushing base model reservations to the end of the line and inventing new options to...
Your dates are very interesting compared to mine. Probably earlier than mine due to California. I'm in North Carolina. I reserved 4/7/2016, 2...
And any other options they can think of such as performance option to push in front of the base SR. It also shows that there is little to no...
I think Tesla will keep inventing new options before the base model ever comes out. Don't forget white interior. That adds interior options, AWD,...
You mean $14,000
What delivery dates are new NON-owner reservations seeing? Anytime within the last few months can count as new. Interested to see if there are...
Ya. I'm laughing loads. When Elon said existing owners would get priority, I assumed ownership would affect the placement but not be absolute....
Does anyone know what a dates a brand new reservation made today shows? I haven't heard anywhere of a date later than 'early 2019' for the SR....
Depends on what you're waiting for. If you're waiting for the SR model, those 100s of thousands of other people may get to cut in line in front of...
And see how well the airlines are regarded. If that's what Tesla aspired to as far as customer relations, thats a very low bar. Next thing we're...
Which is why the $35k may never appear. In a moderate scenario, Tesla makes moderate but not huge quantities of vehicles and has enough customer...
In the graph, were in January 2018. We know they won’t cross 200k now so that scenario isn’t useful. The new debate is could Tesla divert cars to...
New estimates have not been accurate so far. Elon makes it sound like they're running into unexpected problems which stall or slow down...
How long can it take to move this machine from Germany? Maybe they need the Beluga to ship it over. Beluga
If Tesla can produce as many vehicles as they can make and sell them for more than $35k then they may not ever actually make a 35k car. They can...
The cost structure of the Model 3 won't allow them to throw in extra batteries and have it software limited. They did do this with EAP, but I...
Tesla publishes the battery jumping procedure in the first responders guide online. Its readily available is someone wanted to jump the car enough...
