    Elon is still very happy while some of TSLA investors are wondering if in 10 trading days, TSLA will be below $40. 10-12% drop a day will do it.

    I think only the Model 3 and Model Y has $7500 discount and the 10000 mile free supercharging miles. Model S and X only has the10000 free supercharging miles as promotion.

    Troy Teslike posted a bearish forecast for Q3 earlier and then retracted it with a new forecast that is now a beat. His GM estimate was 25.x% and now 27.9%. Tesla was dropping on his earlier forecast and is recovering after his update.

    The weekly 420 options (both call and put) at the end of the day were trading at crazy values. 2 min before close, the 420 put still had bid and ask between $5 - $6. I tried to sell a naked put at $5.7 2 min before close but it was not filled and I cancelled it in about 1 min. I examined the...

    When I attended past shareholder meetings, they only checked that you have the Tesla stock in your brokerage account (they have computers there for you to log in to show them in case you don't have the documents) and I don't remember them asking when the stock was purchased.

    Tesla probably has to use water based paint instead of solvent based paint due to California regulations. Solvent based paint is a lot less sensitive to the environment than water based paint. Water-based coating vs. solvent-based coating | US Coatings

    Someone bought 3000 contracts of 15 Jan 2021 400C at 11:11:47 PST. Then immediately, saw the 300K shares dump on TSLA. Does that mean someone bought 3000 contracts so that they can short sell 300K shares on TSLA?

    Sound Deadening Model 3

    If you look at my picture carefully, you can see that I put the seal on my trunk lid's edges only and so it does not interfere with any of the existing seals.

    Road/wind noise

    I did my sound measurements with my iPhone X using Decibel X Pro using dBA and I don't know how it would correlate to Bjorn's measurements. I wish I had done the measurements before the installation and then it would have clearly show a reduction in the noise level at various speeds. And I...

    Road/wind noise

    Rubber seals added properly on the doors and trunk lids can significantly reduce the noise level in the Model 3. I have two Model 3 and one of them is the early vin (less than 3000) LR RWD and the other one is a Oct 2018 Model 3 Performance. Before adding the rubber seals, I can tell that the...

    Sound Deadening Model 3

    It is quite easy to reduce the noise level in the Model 3. You need to add rubber seals to the doors and the trunk. It turns out that the trunk is a big contributor to cabinet noise. You can tell just by folding the rear seats down and see how much louder the car will be. Attached is my...

    Should Tesla be worried about the Taycan?

    Taycan could be a killer to the image of Tesla being the EV Leader in performance and charging speed. Their latest endurance tests showed that Taycan spent only 30% of the time charging over a 24 hour period running between 125-130 mph. Model 3 should have no thermal issue at such speed but at...

    AP stays close to edge of lane

    I have the same problem after windshield replacement last week. My car was hugging the left lane markers. If turned on AP with the car close to the right lane line, the car would jump to the left and it was quite scary. I believe it was a calibration issue and took it back to the service...

    Here is a video of the sound levels in my Performance Model 3 after I installed additional door seals and added seals to the trunk lid. I am averaging about 71 dBA at 72 mph on the freeway. I also have a 2017 Model 3 long range and it is not as quiet as the Model 3 Performance with the same...

    Repair Cost Out Of Main

    They never showed the footage of the crash. Model 3 has the rear view camera on display when backing up and unless it was intentional, there is no way he could have not seen the entrance. They are not at a new and an unfamiliar place. It is their working garage. I believe they are trying to...

    Reducing noise and keeping the door sills clean

    I found that using the upgrade b-type seal on the edge facing the z-type seal works better than using z-type seal alone. The upgrade b-type seal can be found on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H89G7D1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). I also used this seal to...

    Did the Model 3 kill the Model S and the Model X and Tesla with them?

    I have been following Tesla since 2011 and had bought 4 Tesla and currently still own 3 of them. I think it is much more complicated than that. Someone should start a thread on what went wrong with Tesla. Below are some suggestions: 1. Falcon Wing Door which caused 2-year delay of Model X 2...

    Newbie question: Charge every day?

    You can charge once or twice per week if you like if you still have more than 50% charge left after multiple days of driving. The situations to avoid are: 1) car charged to 100% and 2) running down to 0% for a prolonged period of time. But you can also charge the car to 90% everyday and it...

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable
