Yeah, gotta love the immediate reaction that it "means Tesla deliberatly delivered the Cybertruck with a lower range than advertised." Anyway, saw my first CT here in the Middle of Nowhere, TX yesterday. Stunning, almost as good as the eclipse. SP to the moon!

Elon should watch the documentary about Matt Damon doing that on Mars. Back slightly closer to on-topic, I hope Tesla makes a mint selling accessories of questionable value to the CT crowd. Undercoating, anyone?

Long, unfortunately. But they're only down 99% so far!

Anybody have any non-advice for what to do with my old 1/19 $333c's? They seemed like such a good bet for an options newbie back in the day :confused:

After Tronguy's post, we might need to consider the influence of Max Planck.

OT: At the local Chargepoint near my office today, a woman in a rental Polestar asked me for help in activating the charger. She said the rental company (don't know which one) gave her no instructions. Chatted with her for a minute explaining the process. She didn't strike me as very tech-savvy...

OT: Almost all Americans are confused about the differences between UK, GB, and England. I'm still trying to grasp the relationship between the "members" of the UK. My understanding at this point is that's it lies somewhere between the states of the US and the countries of the EU.

I believe the actual proverb is, "Fools and bears should never see half-done work."

I was sure your Geno quote was going to be: "My tough times would be a dream to someone else."

George sums up my feelings on flawed Elon: “The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” – George Bernard Shaw

Paging the cat. Looks like 5 more shares for you.

And purple green!

I'm in for a 1/24 $1000 LEAP. My first options trade...

Thinking of taking advantage of these sale prices. My choices: 1. Raid the couch and just buy a few shares (accumulating as I've been doing for the last 5 years) 2. Use about 10% of my available margin to grab about 25 cheap chairs (have never used margin) 3. Use the same amount of margin and...

Hopefully you'll give us early-adopter Model S drivers a pass as we charge at 35 kW. I guess I need to buy a Plaid to further the cause....

The actual Mach-E revenue stream? Why didn't Tesla think of this.... /s In-car ads

Reminds me of when I had a gas lawnmower and had to fill my containers. I felt dirty.

Been procrastinating on my Roth conversion. Maybe now's the time...

Agree, with the caveat that perhaps a VERY GOOD engineer could say 577. Not that that's likely to be the case here....

But last I checked Tesla is not installing solar roofs here yet.

Agree with the general sentiment that Elon nailed it. So SP probably down 50 Monday....

Of course, this is not me. Hopefully this loser's gig is up now that he's publicizing his misdeeds. Deleted the post, though, per Opus' suggestion.

I experienced the trunk issue earlier this month on my 2015 70D. Initially, mobile service was scheduled about 5 days later, but it ended up being rescheduled to 8 days beyond that to allow "arrival of parts." I only made one short drive in the interim. The day before the service, I tried...

Suggest that you convert the TSLA paper account to real money.

My 2015 70D has been great and super reliable for 130K miles and I plan on keeping it a lot longer. Only issues have been a sunroof leak a few years ago and recently a slow coolant leak; taking it to service tomorrow and the estimate is less than $100. I'm getting 204 miles range on a 90%...

What is your guess about the stock price next week?

Starship prototypes already on-site.

I'm just a simple buy-and-hold investor, so I'll leave the implications to you experts. Obviously I'm in favor of screwing the shortzes. If that turns out to be the case here, any chance Elon was intentionally sticking it to Cable Car? Bloomberg Ex-employee Lawsuit (sorry if repost)

Looking for a little "not advice". I have a modest sum in an Edward Jones IRA from a previous employer that has been languishing for a while. I'm considering setting up and rolling it into an ETrade retirement account (already have a brokerage account there) so I can (presumably) direct it to...

How many stalls can one vehicle ICE?

Yeah, baby! Getting 40 kW rather than the usual 70 - 80 I normally get nowadays.

Are these the paper losses being discussing here?

Update as of 1545 Saturday 29 February: Still no power to the pedestals, and one spot is ICEd. Must have just missed you, B2!

I'm here now. Still no juice. About 20 cars in the parking lot and none in the charging stalls.

Guess I'll wait until Monday to stop by then, assuming no work was occurring....

I'll take a look tonight.

Cordoned off with yellow caution tape tonight.

Still coned off as of last night. Waiting anxiously!

Visited last night; no changes. Where is the pedestal fairy?

Dropped by last night and there have been no changes since my last picture.

The parking lot was about half full when I was there (3pm Saturday), so I couldn't do any investigative reporting. I'm wondering if there any other SuC's at gas stations (none that I know of in the PNW). It occurred to me that if the charging stalls are ICEd, we could just block the gas pumps...

Since you insist! ;)

The concrete has been placed; hopefully we're now close to pedestals going in.

Stopped by Saturday night. The conduit trenches have been backfilled, and the concrete forms are in behind the curb. The stalls are clear of dirt, but are still coned off.

So is TSLA going up or down tomorrow?

Even farther OT, this reminds me that I haven't heard anything about the hyperloop lately....

Even more OT, but sounds like you need to finish the joke... Back on topic (and sorry if it's been brought up before), virtually every day the AH price drops after close. How are people profiting from this?

I was the civil engineer for this site when it was built in 2006/07 (I have a copy of the plans at my desk.) Hard to believe there would be capacity for chargers here without removing truck parking (which ain't happening). Seems like a good place for a Megacharger, though.

This sums it up nicely. In my 70D, rated range is based on 270 Wh/mi, and my average lifetime usage (60K miles) is 264. I drive conservatively most of the time and live in a mild climate, and get almost ideal miles (about 20% better than rated) for most of my driving during the months of good...

Ideally, a steel bottle that has a rubber grip or something on the lower part to keep it from rattling around. When I picked up my car 2 years ago, we tried the Tesla bottle but it did not fit snugly. Wonder if the current design is better....
