For investor discussions of Tesla crashes and crash-related issues.

The Boring Company is early in its life but, like other Elon Musk ventures, seems to have tremendous potential. With so many of us missing out on the opportunity to invest in Tesla and SpaceX as early-stage startups I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread to share information about...

There are many threads on climate change on TMC. This one is different. This thread is to discuss progress (and obstacles) toward reducing GHG emissions and reducing the impacts of the climate crisis. What this thread is not. This is not a thread to discuss the merits of climate change...

Tesla has a very important mission: to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy. It already has had a tremendous impact and is disrupting an automobile industry that up to now has been hell-bent on accelerating destructive climate change. Tesla is also in the process of...

I have been intrigued by Loup Ventures' recent analysis concluding that returns from tech companies with strong revenue growth -- above 20% annually -- have been more than four times higher over the past five years than tech companies with slower growth. From a basket of 39 leading tech names...

Elon's pickup tweet storm yesterday reinforces how Tesla can use its battery and EV production advantage to disrupt the pickup market. Unless something changes drastically in the next several years, Tesla will essentially have no meaningful EV competition for at least the first few years in...

After Tesla’s delays ramping up the Model 3 program we now see many posts stating that Tesla will not sell a $35000 Model 3 or raising doubts about it. I think the naysayers should be ignored and these doubts should be set aside. Tesla originally estimated that it would ramp up Model 3...

Is there an option to set up polls to allow members to remove their votes in case circumstances change or they just make a mistake? If not, there should be since it is not always enough to have the option to just change your vote since sometimes there is no voting option that really fits or if...

Inquiring minds want to know, have all US S/X/Roadster owners who reserved a Model 3 received their Model 3 configuration invites? If not, how many are left? US S/X/Roadster owners please vote using the buttons above. Since some owners who can configure have not received emails please do...

A professional driver posted his reactions to the Model 3 on the BMW Car Club of America forum after a day driving it on a closed course. His comments echo those of many of the S/X/Roadster owners who are now early Model 3 owners, but I thought his perspective was interesting given his lack of...

Moving the debate over here .....

The Union of Concerned Scientists has issued an update to its series of reports on EV GHG emissions, finding that the GHG advantage of EVs over gasoline and hybrid engines has continued to widen as the grid has gotten cleaner. Based on the most recent data available from the EPA (from 2014), on...

Please enter your estimates for Q2 2017 S/X delivery and production. OK to update as we get closer to the end of the quarter. I'll start: 26,400 deliveries 27,200 production

Motor Trend reports P100D with Easter Egg enabled ran 0-60 in 2.2755 seconds with their standard 1 foot rollout -- the fastest of any car they've tested, including Ferrari LaFerrari, Porsche 918 and McLaren P1. The P100D beat Porsche 911 Turbo S in head-to-head 0-60 and tied it in quarter mile...

Hi all, I will be visiting Australia for the first time in the second half of November (flying into Sydney) and wondered if anyone who might be in Northern California in that timeframe might be interested in a Tesla swap. I live about 15 minutes from the SF airport so logistics should be...

In its Autopilot report today, the NHTSA reported that accidents in AP-equipped Tesla's dropped by a remarkable 40% compared to Tesla's without AP. According to the NHTSA data, AP-equipped Teslas appear to be almost twice as safe as Teslas w/o AP. And this likely understates the safety...

Tesla and its shareholders have a big week coming up. A much anticipated earnings report, solar roof unveil and a discussion of merged TSLA/SCTY financials. So far, the market has brushed off a beat on Q3 deliveries, AP2 reveal and other seemingly good news. Will this pattern continue? Will...

Any thoughts on the likelihood of Tesla introducing a new model to compete with the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes E-Class and Audi A6? There is a big gap between the price points for the Model 3 and S, and this seems like low hanging fruit to generate margins to support development of lower cost/mass...
