    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    This bloodbath for TSLA stockholders was started by a few people that wanted to punish Elon Musk by hurting Tesla. Now, when we see analyst lowering price targets when the fundamentals of a company are only improving, we know that the heard mentality has taken over.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I am certainly no expert, but the fact the NASDAQ is up is telling me that this is pure market manipulationby MM's, hedge funds, shorts, etc. They are mainly hurting the not so wealthy. 401Ks, IRA's and the small investor are the ones losing out.

    Supercharger — Kingsland, GA

    I was at the Kingsland Ga. Supercharger today. A crew was installing the permanent 2 stalls to replace the temporary units. Only one cabinet. PS: The rumor about the welcome station closing appears to be only a rumor for now.

    Think we'll be able to use the cybertruck as a home generator?

    I would hope that the Cybertruck has a NEMA 14-50; You could power a refrigerator, a microwave and some lights for quite a while - especially if you do it intermittently! Assuming a 100 kWh battery, I guess you could draw 9.6 kWh for almost 8 or 9 hours, assuming a high efficiency inverter and...

    What's the smallest Faraday key fob protecting pouch

    Is Tesla trying to become the absolute worst service organization?

    My recent Service Center experience just says that Tesla needs to expand the SC network. I know it is hard to find good people to man those centers, but they are out there. In Jacksonville, FL they also need more delivery and prep folks, along with a much bigger lot.

    Acceleration Shudder

    I took my Model X in on Sept 10th for the shudder fix. They told me there were a couple of cars ahead of me and provided a P85D loaner. A week later, on Sept 17th, they let me know it was ready. I drove the 50 miles, to the service center, and picked up the car. While leaving the parking lot and...

    Local CBS story, Tesla in autopilot mode hits fire truck

    When my AP1, Model X ,is close behind another vehicle it locks onto them and attempts to turn, and weave, to follow that leading vehicle (vary annoying when in stop-and-go traffic and the car in front keep weaving out of the lane). Was the Tesla driver in this crash asleep and not allowing the...

    TFL Thrifty 3

    To all you folks that are waiting on Tesla to "clean-up-their-act' before buying, you should just look elsewhere for a car now.

    New update for my Model S P85D 2019.12.1.1 Finally!

    I did "2 wheel" reboot and the power off, also I tried my alternate MCU; no luck with button opening charge port door. I'll have to wait for the next update. I do like the location based mirror auto fold. I lost one button push and gained another!

    New update for my Model S P85D 2019.12.1.1 Finally!

    I just got 2019.12.1.1 for my 2016 Model X. While I like the mirror closing on location, the charge port is no longer will open when depressing the button on the handle. I do wish they would make " speed controlled volume" an option. Does anyone know if those of us with the antique AP1 cars...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I agree with you. I am in this long term, therefore quarter-to-quarter means very little to my faith in TSLA. But the constant negative FUD could effect funding- if it is needed and that could hurt.

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    I was in the camp that a fix was just around the corner. I now doubt that, I think that we have to all live with the issue. If Model X is updated it will likely not have the problem.

    Supercharger - Savannah, GA

    I would like a new Supercharger at Ga.204 and I-95, as the traffic there is much less congested. The airport and Tanger Outlet exit is a nightmare most of the time. --- But, Tesla doesn't listen to us. I just hope they do something1

    How do I get ahold of Elon? I just had ridiculous roadside experience!

    Calling the service center was an intelligent move for the OP. It is Tesla's issue whether they sent the truck to the wrong house, or if the tow company, or driver, is lying!

    Stranger pulls public charge cable out "Teslas Don't need to charge"

    You never know someones travel plans. I have found, in my 5 years of Tesla ownership, that 99% of Tesla driver are very considerate. I have noticed that some other EV drivers are not quite as understanding. Maybe its just the increase in EV numbers and the loss of community.
