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

    With July 4th party invites in the air I’m reminded of previous pain: TSLA has been absolutely clobbered just before/after July 4th trading in the last two years: 2018: Down ~$32 7/2-7/3 2018 2017: Down ~$52 7/3-7/6 2017

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

    I don't think this is talked about enough! The V2 upgrade to 150kW is such a giant boost in speed, and that is before V3 is rolled out in bulk. We had enough time to walk .1 miles to a coffee shop, buy coffee and use the bathroom before the 'you are ready to continue your trip' notification...

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

    I know the NYT article is becoming old news at this point, but I happened to have a road trip for work and did my best to provide a real world rebuttal of their reporting here: Mesa on Twitter V2 superchargers after the recent software updates are stupid fast, it has never been easier to road...

    I’m not sure it matters but that would be interesting to know. Even if this was an unexpected failure it appears the pack venting worked as designed to prevent injury.

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    Snagged 85@$282.23 to bring my total count to an even 500. edit: hit submit too soon. I hit 5k miles on my Model 3 over the weekend. Been telling myself to wait until that milestone before buying more shares. Car is amazing and I’ve had zero issues.

    TACC - Set to Current Speed?

    No it does not read signs and has no idea the school zone is active. So in my use case it thinks the speed limit is 35mph (which is correct unless the school speed zone is active during the day). Speed limit is based on GPS and is pretty accurate ignoring dynamic stuff like construction zones...

    TACC - Set to Current Speed?

    Yes I agree with this summary. My new trick with the school zone scenario I detailed earlier in the thread is to engage TACC/AP just before the car figures out the speed limit so I can set it to my current speed. The scroll wheel update did improve the effort and speed to quickly correct the...

    TACC - Set to Current Speed?

    I run into the same scenario everyday on my commute. 35 mph speed limit but based on the time of day drops to a 20 school zone. Total speed trap too as the road is four lanes wide and the local police regularly setup an assembly line of ticketing. Engaging TACC or AP jumps straight to 40mph...

    Leaving car with valet

    My 3 is now in day 3 of a valet garage in NYC. I thought about using the phone trick on the drive in but after the stress of getting through the crazy traffic to the hotel I was ready to get out. We are at a nice place but not top shelf ($400+ a night). I get out and ask the valet 'have you...

    Leaving car with valet

    I’m taking my family on a road trip to NYC tomorrow for the kids spring break. Haven’t heard the phone trick that is a good one. But honestly my plan was to let the hotel valet park it :/

    To upgrade panel from 100 to 200 amps or not.

    FWIW I paid ~$3k for my charger installation. This did not include the cost of the Tesla Wall Connector, but it did include a full service upgrade from 100A->200A, new panel, new buried 100A circuit run to detached garage (30ft run) and rewiring/removal of existing garage electrical. I made this...

    All Weather Floor Mats?

    FYI I had a set of these for my 2014 Model S85: https://www.amazon.com/3D-MAXpider-Complete-Custom-All-Weather/dp/B01DTBGCOY Before I sold the S I replaced them with the original carpet mats. The first thing I did when I got my 3 home was test fit them and to my surprise the driver and front...

    East Coast timing

    In store 3/31 existing owner in Ohio, Nov-Jan delivery estimate, no invite :( I wonder if how long you have been an owner matters? I bought my CPO last summer. Super excited to see the invites roll out to Midwest and East Coast folks! It has ignited a whole new level of OCD checking my email :)

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    Dry powder at the ready (correct gut feel to delay buying just before the holiday break just above support levels) but I have to admit disappointment in this release. We need more management color to pin a solid opinion but delaying 5K/wk to Q2 is a huge disappointment IMO. Focusing on quality...

    2017 Investor Roundtable: TSLA Market Action

    I have some dry powder and was torn on buying more shares today. My gut says M3 Q4 deliveries will disappoint the market so I couldn't pull the trigger and decided to wait until next week. If I'm wrong and the delivery / production totals result in a positive stock move that is OK I have too...

    Anyone here pick up a CPO Model S while waiting but still planning on getting a Model 3?

    I'm an in-store reservation holder and when Tesla placed the high mileage model S into the two year CPO warranty program over the summer I jumped. I have no autopilot but it is still the most amazing car I've ever owned by far and is in excellent condition (new drive unit during CPO...

    Anybody successfully gotten a priority bump after purchasing a MS/MX?

    Same reservation date but I’m in the Midwest. Took delivery of a CPO S the day of the Model 3 delivery party in late July. My delivery estimate for first production is Oct-Dec.

    One full week into ownership any I’m absolutely in love with the car. Friday morning went out to drive to work and the driver door handle presented but did not open. Called the service center and they got me in and fixed the issue the same day with a Model S loaner for the day (shout out to the...

    In all fairness to my DS I just realized I missed an out of office reply from him last Friday and he is out on vacation this entire week. He did leave alternative contact info which I just used. Being frustrated that I’m not getting a response from someone that told me he will be on vacation...

    At this point I'm firmly where @TSLA_maybe was about ten pages of posts ago: I totally understand this delta from being crazy excited that I actually put down the deposit to just being tired of this long drawn out process that no one seems to know when it will end. I've used the gap time to...

    2017 Investor Roundtable:General Discussion

    The Model 3 production SN1 picture is expected and well priced into the today's pricing. I think a decent ramp rate is also priced in with the Elon-communicated schedule representing the floor. Going forward the big levers are more significant TE revenue, Model 3 ramp rate and any surprises at...
