    Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S

    Nice. When I last checked the Soundqubed website the 2 and 4 ohm versions of the HDS 2.2 were both unavailable, but looks like the 2 ohm version is now available. It’s a newer version of what I currently have with mostly similar specs. The Morels are older version tweeters and I went with them...

    Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S

    I had to make mounting plates for the 3 dash midrange speakers due to the screw patterns and tight working space. I didn’t need mounting plates for the 2 in the rear hatch door. I also used oem plugs for the drivers so I could easily plug or unplug them instead of just hard wiring. No...

    Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S

    FYI - I noticed on the SoundQubed website they have an SQ-HDX8-D2 sub for $200 with somewhat similar specs to the older HDS2.1. Although similar, the specs are different and I have not tested this sub so anyone interested would need to do their own research before purchasing.

    Silver Arachnids and Pilot Super Sport Tires

    I am in Rocklin, 25mi east of Sacramento, just off of I-80. There is an SC a couple of miles away for charging. This is my backup set. We are moving so I want to sell them instead of move them.

    There have been many comments and criticisms about Elon being “late” or delaying new technology and products. Please remember that when you are creating something that has never existed before you don’t know how long it will take or how many times you have to start over or take a different path...

    My son and I saw one in the same color heading toward Tahoe on I-80. My son laughingly mentioned the color was identical to a caution sign. Anxiously waiting for my Cybertruck.

    The Rocklin SC is located 25mi east of Sacramento and just a few miles from Sierra College. 5 days before the end of Q2 I noticed about 25 new Teslas parked in the Sierra College overflow parking lot across the street from the main entrance. I came to the conclusion there must not have been...

    Will the Mercedes EQS Electric Flagship Steal Tesla’s Driving Range Crown?

    You can’t go faster than 70 in ECO mode. That restriction is a non-starter for me. If not using ECO mode, what is the range on EQS?

    Will the Mercedes EQS Electric Flagship Steal Tesla’s Driving Range Crown?

    My post was from nearly a year ago when MB was introducing the concept car and predicted production deliveries starting in later 2021. So, fast forward nearly a year and yes, it does exist now. I am all for new EVs that kill ICE - I think EQS will do just that, but mostly replacing E and S Class...

    A small shares dividend (split) now followed by an announcement of a vote to increase max shares would help reconcile naked short sales and send a clear message to the shorties that this will be a recurring action to keep them in check.

    @Krugerrand, I always appreciate your posts and many of us feel the same way you do. I don't think we will ever convince the likes of Gordon Johnson and his oil/legacy and bought-off buddies that Tesla is a good investment. No matter how good the news, how many cars are sold, or how high margins...

    Also, take the proper corporate steps this year to be able to do more than 2:1 (or current max) share dividend and then just keep issuing frequent share dividends until the naked shorts comply. This sucks and I am sick of it.

In stark contrast to Tesla, Construer Reports says GM is a responsible and ethical automaker and is leading the way in consumer safety, innovation, and sustainable clean energy. /s

    I am helping my 26 year old son get into investing and offered to fund the purchase of 4 shares of TSLA if he spent part of his stimulus check on 1 share. He bought yesterday below $700. Nice surprise today. He asked if he should sell now - looks like we still have some more lessons to cover.

    TIme for TSLA SP to run up again with decent volume followed by volume plateau and then options MMs manipulation and vampire drain until the next amazing thing starts the cycle over again at a higher baseline.

    I generally agree. In my experience in the corporate world and dealing with rating agencies, upgrades take a long time even if you have earned it. Upgrades can be useful for better rates and terms on debt, but that doesn't mean much to Tesla right now.

    It wasn’t that long ago pre-split when SP high was just over $900, it dropped back into the $500s, and then back up to over $1,000 and beyond. Perhaps a bit of deja vu.

    Through all of the nay-saying, FUD, second guessing, and ignorance (including my own in some instances) - I trust Elon. It's not just blind faith. I have done quite well through his decisions and actions.
