    So interesting. Much props to the owner. TheSamba.com :: Vanagon - View topic - Vanagon 100% electric with Chevy Bolt drivetrain

    Repair delays as reported by SF Gate website.

    Nothing new to members of TMC, but the general public will be shocked by this article. Yet another hurdle Tesla must overcome for mass adoption. I can't see the average family who loves Tesla and/or EV getting a Tesla vehicle being able or willing to put up with this. The thing about owning a...

    Lots of cars are being, have been, delivered, why then

    is the stock price dropping? Just got myself a bunch of TSLA, but I'm not sure if I should wait before buying more. Are we all expecting the price to jump significantly (as in $400+) after the end of quarter numbers are in?

    Model S stolen in San Jose.

    Interesting read, and brave/smart woman texting 911. https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/11/08/sunnyvale-suspects-arrested-after-woman-hiding-under-bed-texts-911/

    Tesla in autopilot mode crashes into parked Laguna Beach police cruiser Police Sgt Cota: "Why do these vehicles keep doing that?" Cota said. "We're just lucky that people aren't getting injured."

    Tesla store sent me the wrong part, can't get in touch with anybody there.

    Hi, I ordered a UMC online from the Tesla store. I received the European version of the UMC. I've called and left multiple messages (nobody picked up the phone). It's been about 5 days. No response. I wonder if I go into the store myself, would they do the exchange? I live 2.5 hours away from...

    Anybody heard of caenergy?

    I recently received a postcard from caenergy promoting a $5,500 rebate from the state of CA for eligible households to buy an "energy storage" system. As I understand it, the Powerwall is very difficult to get right now. Are there any other options beside Tesla? Thanks,

    Should I try to dissuade my uncle from getting a MS?

    My uncle is in his 70s, doesn't know a lot about Tesla. He expressed an interest in getting a used MS. Specifically, he really likes AP, he drives around 60 miles a day to his part time retired job and seeing friends (straight highway and twisty mountain roads). He told me that with AP, he can...

    Whatever happened to the plan for battery swapping on the go?

    I recall Tesla was gonna allow owners to swap batteries when theirs run low, instead of waiting to charge at a SC station. IIRC, it was planned as an automated procedure. I did a search but didn't see any relevant info. Thanks,

    Interested in a MS, but I live 115 miles away from service center. Should I be concerned?

    It's not uncommon for any Tesla vehicles to have issues that will require a trip to the SC. Many of the owners on this forum don't seem to mind dropping off their car and leave with a loaner. I assume that they live not too far from a SC. For me it's an easy 1.5 hour one way drive. I'm on the...

    Is Tesla AP much better than this?

    My neighbor just bought a 2017 Acura MDX. I understand that members here look down on all ICE cars, so my question is not about the drivetrain. Obviously an ICE vehicle is inferior to a BEV the majority of the time. From reading the brief description of the safety features, it does appear rather...

    How is a Tesla taxi possible, business wise?

    I'm visiting Stockholm and just saw a Tesla taxi. I'm curious how it's possible business-wise, with the cost of the car being what it is. I also saw one in Brugge, Belgium, but not a taxi. That was pretty cool also!

    Bob Lutz in Road & Track.

    He talked about Tesla. Would love to read about TMC opinions. Some things he mentioned (obviously this article was already done before the X rollout): Tesla's showing all thee signs of a company in trouble, bleeding cash, securitized assets, and mounting inventory. It's the trifecta of...

    How long is your wait at a supercharger?

    I'm eagerly waiting for the Model E, and am curious to know your typical wait time, not the charging time, at a supercharger location. It's probably not long at all, but if the more affordable Model E becomes popular, that wait time may become an issue for some. Imagine a line 3-4 cars deep...

    Did you buy or lease?

    I've seen a a high ratio of leases vs. purchases with the other EVs, just wondering what the breakdown here with the Model S. Thanks,

    Gen V Viper?

    While waiting for the Model X, I'm contemplating what I'll spend my $ on. I've always had a high performance vehicle in the household. I know asking this question on this forum may seem a bit odd. Aside from the car having an ICE, what do you think of it? It wouldn't be my daily driver, that's...

    Do you have money in Tesla stocks?

    I read on this forum that one person from Seattle was able to buy his Model S from Tesla stocks earnings. Pretty impressive. Just curious if anybody else is making some $ with TSLA. Thanks,

    Do you miss the roar of a V8?

    Hello, First post here. I'm having an internal debate on what I should do, just looking for another perspective from people on this forum, though probably biased. :smile: I've had my share of big powered V8, in Camaros and Corvettes. Currently I'm splitting time between a 2013 Volt and a 2006...
