    TSLA objective investment analysis

    I've been meaning to start this thread for a while and now I figured with the new year upon us it would be good to start a thread where a more objective analysis of TSLA is discussed and less cheerleading occurs. What I'd like to see is even-handed analysis of both positive and negative news and...

    Move to Puerto Rico for tax incentives

    Has anyone considered moving to PR for the tax incentives given to capital gains? If so, do these incentives apply towards securities held in retirement accounts?

    Should one tip at a carwash?

    A couple of times now a guy at my local carwash grumbled something when I didn't tip them. Do most people tip? I've noticed that most other people at the carwash do not tip, though, I've seen a couple who have.

    AC Question

    Vague, maybe dumb, question: Is it better to turn the AC to the lowest possible temperature and lowest possible fan level to achieve comfort, or raise the temperature but turn the fan level up? Yes, I know it depends on the specific temp and fan level but just wondering if there's a general...

    TXU Free Nights Electricity Plan

    Has anyone adopted this plan? I'm going to try it. They give you a 60-day trial period during which you can switch to another plan if you don't like it without an early termination fee. I'm currently paying about 10 cents/kW and going to the TXU Free Nights Plan gives you a daytime rate of 15...

    A/C Temperature Fluctuations

    Now that it's around a 100 degrees where I live, I notice that sometimes the air blowing from my A/C vents gets quite warm for about a minute and then cools down again. During this warmer-than-usual period, the temperature is actually a bit uncomfortable both for me and my passengers. Sometimes...

    Lack of Armrest Padding

    I knew there was a problem when after driving a couple of crappy ICE's and thinking to myself that their armrests felt so much better than my Model S's. If anyone has any ideas to improve the padding of the armrests, I would appreciate it. I really don't want to end up velcroing cushions to the...

    Anyone else a bit irked?

    During the ordering process, I was debating between the 60 kWh and 85 kWh batteries. I specifically asked a Tesla rep on the telephone if, after purchasing the 60 kWh battery without supercharging, I could add the supercharging option at a later time. He told me that that would not be possible...

    Car Cover

    Unfortunately, at work I have to park in an uncovered parking lot, either out in the open under the blistering Texas sun or under the shade of a few trees that are home to a lot of birds. So as much as I'd hate to be "the guy who covers his car," I think I'm gonna have to be that guy in order to...

    My car was damaged during loading! Wow...

    So today was supposed to be THE day. After scrambling over the past week to arrange financing, fill out and send Tesla's paperwork, getting insurance quotes for my Model S, clearing out my garage, arranging for the sale of my current car, etc., etc., I was eagerly awaiting the delivery of my...

    New Owner Survey

    Can someone construct a survey for Model S owners who have received their cars to rate their overall opinion of their cars thus far? Perhaps the survey can be on a scale from 0 to 10, with 0 being "absolutely unacceptable," 5 being "not bad, not great", and 10 being "absolutely ecstatic."...
