@SomeJoe7777, Thank you so much for posting your solution. I used your procedure successfully today and was greatly relieved to know this was not an additional symptom to a "Charge Port Door needs service" hardware issue I am having. [Tesla mobile service is working through that issue with me]

This vehicle is in fine shape. I can attest to this because Bgarret allowed me to drive it on Friday, Jan 12 2018. (Which was also very generous of him because I'd never met him before. He is on a Tesla related forum that I'm am also on and heard I hadn't driven a Tesla yet and I'm only 20...

Last year's Q3 was on Nov 2, so it's earlier by one day (and I haven't looked to see if weekends played into either of those).

Tesla Insurance Tesla is expanding its insurance program to the US and Canada

My wife just told me that Good Morning America broadcast the satire piece from Fortune about Tesla and gasoline cars in pnuematic tubes as though it was an actual story. WTF?!

The thing that bugs me about the 1/10th speed operation of the production line is that it's not 1/11th speed. I would buy a production line that "goes to 11".

So the talk with Puerto Rico's Governor must have gone well then.

RIght, I'm old enough that I had a TI-30SLR and was familiar with 1134 and 58008. Ok, so it's just forum stuff and nothing Elon did, or tweeted. edit: nothing beyond saying we're in "production hell". But it's not like he registered or built a VIN 1134 or something, right?

Wait, is there an origin story to this VIN 1134 meme that actually involves Elon? I was out sick for a week and I'm wondering if I missed something.

Model 3 vs. the Tax Incentive Exhaustion. How many Model 3 can be sold in 2017 without hitting the 200k mark? If Teslike's spreadsheet is close to accurate I'd estimate there is only room for about 45.5k domestic sales in Q4 without crossing the line. If 15k of those are S/X, that only...

Ding! Got my double from my initial purchase at 194.15 a few seconds ago as it crossed 388.30. (June 2016)

Blue shirt today. The cold-blue corpse of Spiegel's portfolio.

I'm telling you folk, it's my shirts. Tue put on red thinking it would retreat slightly, yesterday green thinking a little gain, today I put on my purple shirt and thought about Spiegel's veins popping.

What did that? Did they park 100 new Models 3's outside or something?

Probably a good idea. Yesterday morning I put on the red shirt whilst thinking of the SP. Today I chose a green shirt doing the same. Not an advice.

VA someone tweeted a response to your tweet containing malware. Might want to block them.

Dashcam coming... Elon Musk on Twitter

I regret that I have but one vote to give toward correcting the travesty that is our Michigan Legislative branch.

I think they must have run out of ammo. :)

Wonder if we're witnessing a controlled Exodus of the shorts during this opportunity?

Short sellers getting even more desperate. Two FUD articles on Slashdot.org. I remember when CmdrTaco and Jeff built that site. (My wife and I kept running into them every time we went to the movie theater) It was so much better before they sold it. Tesla Seeks $1.5 Billion Junk Bonds...

Reddit rumor about FSD [Unconfirmed employee boast] First FSD-specific feature coming tomorrow • r/teslamotors

That's a big hit on a low volume day. Nothing pulling it back up yet and NASDAQ still diving.

The battle for $344 is real.

Mind The Dip

I wonder if Tesla were able to renegotiate a longer term, lower price deal on 18650's? Looks like they're tossing in 10kWh's worth of them (software locked) for free now. Instant benefit of faster charging. Tesla strangely starts delivering new 85 kWh battery packs software-locked at 75 kWh...

true, but also true is: The 373,000 reservations happened in one week.

very low volume.

Curt, Thank you from across the big lake! It's interesting that these corrected trades after hours are allowed to alter the After hours high/low watermarks. It makes those figures much less useful than they should be.

Off a sale of 300 shares too. This is weird stuff.

Is it just me, or are the after hours prices a little weird tonight? I see it jumping around by almost 1.5%.

But do we double up if there are also new memberships by misspelled Ayn Rand characters?

Gonna have to get the image recognition folks to work on that so autonomous Semi's still honk. :D

Oof. They woke up again. Come on $TSLA give them a knock out punch!

Someone really really doesn't want $TSLA over 330 today. Edit: Doh, D-egg-O beat me by 6 minutes on that post.

Could easy be. google finance volume is delayed 15 min and that's what I look at. But yeah. Wasn't daily volume something like 6M last year?

2M shares in 30 minutes. that's busy.

That's not a weak reservation holder, that's a weak long. Get a loan for the X and wait to sell the stock @ 2,000. :) not an advice. ;)

Reserved mine 4/1/16, every intention of buying it and optioning it up a bit. After the first one was built on 7/8/17, my wife reserved hers. So from my anecdote we can ascertain that twice as many people plan to buy one now. Your short position is screwed. :D

Welp, there goes the pre-market. :(

Wonder if it's gap-up tomorrow as it should, or if it's another crazy TSLA sell the news day?

Now that they've built the first, we just reserved our 2nd. First reservation was 4/1/16 (mine), wife reserved hers about 3 minutes after Elon tweeted that SN1 was complete.

They built it!

A picture of a Model 3 VIN tag would be a better response.

313 and rising feels kinda ok today especially since we didn't get our tweet yet.

I agree, but, he could post a closeup photo of the VIN tag. That wouldn't be a spoiler for the reveal, and it would be nice news.

Yay! That rocket finally went to space! :) Those last two aborted launches were almost as disappointing as the last two trading days. Almost. :eek:

Now I know why my wife dislikes that song so.

*Bow* I hadn't any idea that 100kWh pack production was an issue. :confused: I like the implication that they sold a lot of 100kWh units. :D

Those are huge performance improvements and so far no price increase. Very nice! And the fold-down 7 seat for X is nice too.
