    Loan news on a youtube clip?

    So next monday we might be able to get an official announcement about GE and the plant? That would definetely be what is needed to get me to put my money down.

    Auto X Prize

    Well if it starts in May of next year, I bet they might have that government loan and the factory site. So, I think that this timeline will work great for them.

    Mr. King goes to Los Angeles

    It would also be nice if you could ask them if they are going to be changing their website to accomodate the new car.

    Im just hoping they don't get so cheap that they put a plastic looking grill on the front.

    Will Tesla Motors reach 2010?

    I voted yes because i believe Steven Chu will get this loan program up and running. Why did people vote yes or no.

    Tesla Increases Prices for Existing 2008 Orders

    Graham, I dont happen to be on the waiting list for anything of Tesla, and I know you happen to be. That means you will have a little more influence then I will. I am begging you or someone else to PLEASE call, and tell them this is going to be the biggest PR disaster in their history if they...

    Tesla Increases Prices for Existing 2008 Orders

    Well, I may be simplifying this, but if you have a problem with the price raises you should call. If we got enough people to call it might make a difference. Atleast one person will have the guts to say they made a mistake, and if they saw it as a problem to future business they would...

    Model S Specifications, Teases and Leaks

    There is only 1 thing I can say when I hear this. WOW. How many times have they told us this same thing already. Im not trying to be negative but I have been dreaming about this car for the past year. And, it would be nice if we could finally see the finished product of all the hard work...

    Gas Tax Solution

    Tomsax i love that idea but I'm not sure if in the U.S. we would ever see this occur. Warped, i know people dont want to be paying higher prices but 5 cents per gallon isnt much if your looking at the big picture. This isnt about the environment(although it helps), but more about maybe an...

    Gas Tax Solution

    I know in this current financial crisis the last thing we need to do is increase taxes for anyone. But, with the low prices of gasoline I think it wouldn't be that awful of an idea. In the next few months I am planning to talk to one of the congressman of my state to talk about a possibly...

    just an allusion

    Please guys enough is enough. I may not be as smart as all of you are, but I do know when it is time to stop. Allusion I'm not trying to call you out but every time im on I see your trying to outsmart everyone. No one likes a no it all, so please try to stop shoving this information in...

    LionEV

    Lion would be the perfect name for a lithium ion battery car. The l would be for lithium and the ion would be for ion. Maybe tesla should consider that rather than model s.

    Lotus Evora ("Eagle" 2+2)

    Lotus Evora Looking at this car, it shares many of the characteristics of the Roadster. Maybe Lotus liked the job they did with the Roadster so much that they wanted to make something like it. http://blog.wired.com/cars/2008/11/lotus-evora.html

    Maybe, even better, they dont get to it at all!

    The Big Idea -CNBC

    Sadly, some of it has gone this low. I understand I sound like an old man, but what happened to peoples manners? I think that if they ever get to Tesla they will probably write it off for its inability to bring cars to the market, and for not being able to drive off the dealership with one.

    The Big Idea -CNBC

    Honestly this is ridiculous. Im trying to sit here and stick through this, but i don't no how much more of them yelling at each other i can take. They are trying to take this political.:mad:

    AP Reports Tesla seeking $400 million

    It seems that the amount they are looking for continues to go up. When they first said they were building the plant they said 150 million. Then, after the 100 million in investing fell through, they said 200 million. But now, they say 400 million. Is their business really doing that bad?

    AP Reports Tesla seeking $400 million

    I would hope that they would learn from their mistakes. Looking too far ahead at this point in time would not be the brightest thing to do. Maybe the money is to ramp up their powertrain sales.:confused:

    AP Reports Tesla seeking $400 million

    Tesla said it was seeking about $400 million in loans for two projects. Im guessing one project would be the construction of the Model S plant. What would the other one be?

    TM Blogs

    Yes, they have been doing a better job at bringing in new articles. I feel that all the blog posts will continue to speed up again considering they need to keep their customers and their loyal fans close. I also wonder if they will completely redo the site after they inroduce the Model S:biggrin:

    Elon at Web 2.0 Summit 2008

    I think I heard Elon said a little while after the investment round that they could file for an IPO soon. I think at the earliest he said Q2 2009, but i think he is thinking very optimistically.

    Tesla wants in on the $25 billion loan program

    From what ive read from the articles they are talking about 6 to 18 months before the whole thing is finalized. So, I think im answering my own question by saying no it wont effect the date that the Model S comes out.

    Tesla wants in on the $25 billion loan program

    I wonder what would happen if Tesla got a small share in this? Would they be able to move forward with their Model S program or return back to their deadline for late 2010? Could someone ask some of the answers on the owners forum because im not fortunate enough to have the money to be part of it.

    Charging Station standards

    Its been interesting after looking at all these different evs that all of them have different plugs. Wouldnt it be easier to set a charging infastrcture into place if all the evs had the same plug?

    Hydrogen Fueling Stations

    I have already looked at the feasability and the such. Even as a kid I could easily realize that it is just not meant for the average consumer. Where hydrogen will probably play a bigger part is in Airplanes and other things like that.

    Tesla Customer update

    If im not mistaken they are trying to produce and finish all 1200 orders for the MY 2008 and the MY 2009 in the next year or so. If so, does that mean starting with MY 2010 are the planning to do 1200 orders each year?
