My son's car was parked on the street and totaled when someone ran into it. It was a 2018 LR. We can't decide on the replacement. I think he should get the LR + Boost. He wants the Performance. Personally, I don't see the point of spending $6k more to loose around 40 miles of range, have a...

My son's Model 3 was parked near USC and badly hit (probably totaled). Luckily the driver left a note. How do I get a list of Tesla certified repair shops in L.A. for estimate and possible repairs?

It appears that there are several investors here that have been able to retire at a young age. I'm considering selling some of my TSLA and retiring this year, at 50, from my surgical practice. I can probably continue to work a few days a month as an assistant surgeon to keep my feet wet...

What is your best guess?

I got my second choice (someone beat me to CYBRTRK)! Kind of predictable (originality is not my strong suit). What have you reserved?

Picked up my P100DL on Saturday. According to testers who posted a YouTube video, the Sport setting is like the old Model S suspension. The Standard is the new softer setting. After driving with Standard for a little while, the switch to Sport is very noticeable, and now that feels too harsh...

I ordered a P100DL at the end of April. I asked for carbon fiber decor as a special order, but I was told it was no longer available, even off the menu. I just learned that carbon fiber is back. Original car available for delivery next week. I have to place a new order if I want carbon fiber...

I just ordered a P100DL yesterday and sold my 2015 P85D. I can't decide on 19 or 21 inch wheels. I'm afraid the staggered 19s won't give enough traction for 0-60 in 2.4. Any real world experience? (I'm sure this has come up many times, but a search didn't show the answer). Thanks.

A very significant percentage of my net worth is in TSLA. I'm very confident that TSLA will be worth more in 10 years than it is today. I would say the chance of it doubling in 10 years is over 95%. Odds of being 5x today is 80%. 10x growth 50%. 20x growth 20%. This is based on how I see...

Apparently, when you e-file this year with Turbo Tax, your refund goes through the Santa Barbara Tax Products Group. They will send you an email saying that there is unusual activity with your account, and you need to upload photo I.D.. Even though it is supposed to take less than 7 days...

It was my brother's turn to drive to Park City for mountain biking yesterday. Spaces were tight. There was probably about 1.5ft (or less) to the car on the right in the parking space. Had a child been there he would have opened the rear door of the Audi Q7 and dinged the other car for sure...

Got in the X today and had a low pressure warning in right rear. Stopped and found a screw in the center of the tire after less than 600 miles. Went to the gas station/shop near our house for a repair. They took the tire off and initially refused to fix the tire because there is a foam ring...

Anyone fit a road bike and/or a mountain bike INSIDE the X yet? Curious to see if with the 6 seat there is enough height to roll the bike backwards between the second row and leave it upright (maybe with front wheel off). Pics would be great...

I know we have some non-Performance versions, but what about non-Premium interiors? How are the front doors working? I wonder if they auto pop open a few inches (so you can grap and open manually from there), but not open all the way?

There needs to be a cargo mode that moves only the middle seat in the second row all the way forward and tilts. This allows passengers to still sit in the outer seats, and more room (almost like a 6 seat version) in the middle for longer objects, like skis. Of course, this is in addition to a...

We ordered white. Saw a Red one today. It looked amazing. But we need some pictures to help it sink in and decide. We have less than 24 hours until it becomes too late. Please post pics of your Red Model X, or any that you find. Thanks! P.S. - Does the Red look instantly dirt all the time?

I am trying to come up with an educated guess on Model 3 reservations. I bet every Model S owner knows at least 5 people that would love a Tesla, but can't afford a Model S. Many Model S owners probably intend on getting a Model 3 for a family member. With 100,000 Model S owners, I predict at...

I'm considering changing my order from white exterior with black leather, to blue with white seats. I know there are pictures of that combo, but don't know where to look now. Can owners please post different exterior colors with different seat combinations, and headliners, here to help others...

For those that were at the reveal event and got to see the car in person - I read that the handles don't actually come out like they do on the S, is this correct? If they don't, then you have nothing to pull the door open with. Does this mean you touch the "handle" and then they auto open even...

Regular production models only. Only one post per vehicle please. I thought about a poll, but there are too many combinations. For my wife: 90D, Autopilot, 7 seats, Audio upgrade, Winter package, towing package, 20 inch standard wheels, White paint, black leather, light headliner, carbon fiber...

There was a link the other day that talked about how Tesla is shooting for a drag coefficient under 0.2, and had a picture of a really aero VW vehicle with covered rear wheels. I have never seen a car with covered rear wheels that looked good. The success of the Model 3 and Tesla relies on a...

I decided to upgrade to the P85D. Had I not checked "My Tesla" on the website, I would have had no warning at all. On Monday I checked the status and learned it was on a truck. Called Tesla to get more info, and found out it was arriving to the Service Center today! I think I could have sold...

Can anyone with some computer skills try to get a measurement of the receiver and figure out if it is 2 inches or not? It looks smaller to me, which would make it pretty useless if it is. Don't want to have to use an adapter that sticks out 6-8 inches just to get my bike rack on there....

You can buy a Tesla in Communist China, but the following people voted to block Tesla from selling it's cars in Utah. They care more about protecting an outdated business model, than supporting a ground breaking AMERICAN car company that, according to Consumer Reports, builds the best car ever...

Petition · Allow Tesla to sell their cars in Utah. · Change.org Apparently old dealer laws have put the brakes on the Tesla store in Utah. There is legislation trying to get through the Utah house and Senate right now that would allow manufacturers to sell direct through internet sales as...

Those of you have have gone to 20 inch wheels and put 275 or wider on the back, have you noticed a significant loss in range?

Looking at the Ventus in the 275/30/21 size for my P85+ rears. Anyone try them yet and can comment on ride quality, sidewalls, wear?

I sold my Porsche 911S to get my Model S P85+ 13 months ago, and have little regret. But, I would love a Tesla sports car a few years from now. Do we have any real information from Tesla that would suggest they will build a Roadster replacement in the future? Since their mission is to get the...

Can someone please explain to a non-financial guy what the convertible offering means? Can a regular person get in on it with say $50,000? How does the rate of return work? Is it a safe investment? I don't get any of it.... Thanks.... :redface:

I have bought TSLA shares 6 different times, starting at 50, using my Wells Fargo Brokerage account. Latest purchase was after the dip on Thursday - 250 shares around 172. If I want to sell 250 shares in December at 200, I understand I pay taxes on the profits. My question is, how do I sell...

Total newbie question. I don't know anything about company mergers and acquisitions. Elon has started and sold a couple businesses already. If in 5 years, he sells Tesla, what will that mean for those of us investing for the long haul? Lets say the stock is at $300 at the time the sale is...

Or $300? I am a newbie, and talk of calls and puts is making my head spin. It seems like a lot of investors here are trading for monthly income. I'm planning on holding long term (at least 3 years, maybe 20). So the bigger question for me when it comes to investing large amounts in TLSA right...

Wow. I just discovered this part of the forum. I sold a property and have significant cash on hand that I want to invest in a lot more Tesla stock. I can't decide if I should do it before or after Aug. 7th? What are the odds that the stock price will go down after the earnings report...

My car was supposed to be delivered today by transport. He broke down last night with a bearing problem in the trailer. Today they got the trailer fixed and were going to make it by 7pm. He called 30 minutes ago to say he blew a tire and wasn't going to make it. He is 70 miles away. I was...

I have seen several threads by owners who had a car break down within a very short time of ownership. I wonder if they do a more detailed QC process (including more miles on the odometer) when the car is being delivered to a place with no service center? Living in Utah, if there is a problem...
