I agree, but don’t tell my wife. She just saved $4k upgrading to FSD on her new Model Y. She was enjoying her 3 months from my referral, (plus the one month free trial), and I was about to advise her to pull the trigger at $12k expecting the price to go up again. When the subscription was...

Keeping an "old" M3 just for the FSD promise? That's ridiculous. Now if you've got one with the glass roof that turns orange in the rain...that's a keeper!

So if I'm one of the 50k promised full autonomy, at what point does Elon buy me out of that promise? I'm easy, I'll settle for 100 shares, (as long as I can keep my car with FSD "whatever!")

We’ve discovered that using the right scroll wheel to dial the speed up or down while in Supervised FSD no longer works if you have set it to “Automatic Set Speed Offset” in the Autopilot menu. (FSD Supervised v12.3.3.) For now we have decided to leave that setting off. (I meant to turn it...

Just like every Tesla on the road...overpriced and worth every penny! (An excellent business model.)

I just want to provide a bit of anecdotal evidence in support of your assertion: If there had not been a 6-month plus waiting time for the Model S I ordered in November of 2021, I would not have cancelled the order when I was notified it was ready. My circumstances had changed. This was a...

OT: We are now a two Tesla household. Here is my wife's 2024 LR AWD Model Y: For the fascinating long and boring story of how this came to be visit my thread Western Road Trip in a Model 3, then go to the 2024 UPDATE page. Or just go straight to 2024 UPDATE page and skip all the pages...

2024 UPDATE I’m sure all of you are wondering why I haven’t posted pictures and prose about our road trips in the Model S I ordered. (Only joking, I know this thread went dormant a long time ago.) Well, I have two excuses: 1. We haven’t been on any scenic road trips. We did have nice...

No. Their purpose is making money by manipulating the market. Not legal.

I know The Cat is not ignorant, and in this case was not being obtuse or confrontational, (although I do know cats with those characteristics). I apologize for these remarks. (Oh wait…did I say those things?)

OT OT OT @winfield100 @Puma2020 Actually I don’t need or want any proof…I just like pictures of Teslas in scenic spots!

Proof please. (Like pictures of your beautiful car in those scenic locations!)

So how does Tesla as a doiftrinbuter compare with Moderna as a doiftrinbuter? P.S. ❤️❤️❤️ & Happy New Year!

Is there an unk45 ETF I can invest in?

219.96.....Respect.

I just gave you a ❤️. Please post a picture and earn another one.

A couple weeks ago I tried to post a video of Sphere in Las Vegas, but it posted as just a picture. The video is more awesome than the picture:

But more importantly, the mission. 3D Checkmate.

The saturation of Teslas on Vancouver Island was not as intense as Vancouver, but did increase when we arrived in Victoria. (My app shows 4 Superchargers on the island, but the one in Victoria is an Urban Charger, so that may need to be upgraded.) I predict an explosion of Highland Model 3s on...

OK, so going to a foreign country, (Vancouver, Canada), and being amazed at the absolutely incredible saturation of Teslas and calling it bullish is not sufficient for my post to remain in the big boy/girl/cat/Dawg investment thread? Maybe if I share my knowledge of battery tech, neural...

Maybe the charging stops will show “short subject” films. Remember them? The ones they used to show before the feature film and after the news real. (Okay, maybe most of you don’t.) Every year I’m never able to see all the nominated short films before the Oscars, maybe these will bring back...

Did your 2018 M3 have the glass roof that turns raindrops into beautiful orange pearls? How could you part with such a classic? (I gave you a “love” anyway. I’m jealous of the white interior, it wasn’t available when I configured mine.). Enjoy your new M3 and I’m sure someone will enjoy your...

We flew into Vancouver on Tuesday evening. During the 15 minutes we were waiting for our shuttle to our hotel, we counted 11 Teslas driving by, all Y's and 3's, with Y's edging out the 3's. BULLISH! During our site-seeing adventures, it is clear that Teslas are the most popular car here. A...

The first time I saw a Model 3, (which was the day I took delivery of mine in 2018), I was very worried I would never get used to the lack of an instrument panel. That worry disappeared as I was driving it out of the showroom.

I keep all my car accessories in the frunk. Cables, air pump, tire gauges, homemade pucks, cleaning supplies, lug nut key … but no brush. Okay, just added a brush to my WalMart list for our next road trip North. That will be in October so snow is not likely, but then again it was an October...

Like this? I don’t live in a snowy area so this is not a problem for me. This was an early storm at the Grand Canyon a couple years ago. Of course, if I had had any common sense I would have brushed it off before opening the trunk! (Meow)

Since the wash sale period is 61 days, (30 days before the sale, 30 days after the sale, plus the date of sale), day one of the 30 days would be the day after the sale. I just trimmed our Apple position to take advantage of the long term capital gain benefit for our tax bracket. I was thinking...

Awesome footage! When we drove up Pikes Peak a couple years ago, they were re-paving at the summit so we were limited to Devil's Landing. We took it a little slower than Randy did. I was hoping there was a time stamp on the video so I could spot Devil's Landing. He went so fast I missed it...

I haven’t tried TunaBug’s solution. All my double albums are “two albums,” I.e. The White Album (Disc 1), The White Album (Disc 2). In the list of albums for each artist the two are rarely together or in order. I have no idea what determines that order. Of course it requires finding Disc 2...

I have absolutely no use for the massive and beautiful CyberTruck. But I sure could use a compact version, (but not the 4-wheeler that fits in bed of the CyberTruck). And yes, it’s primary use would be ordinary driving and attracting attention for the next 10 years, (not just 3). I hope I...

I think FireMedic meant to say BTD, Buy The Dip. I have no F’ing idea what the F stands for.

I do that as well. Then to avoid “losing the identity” of the person sharing credit on a particular song I add a note in parentheses as a part of the song title, i.e. “(w/ India.Aire).” Duets albums are a real pain. I look forward to doing this for the new song by Miranda Lambert and Leon...

Message to that part of you: You EARNED it!

In tonight's video, Rob Maurer cited an article that summarized the law quite differently from the article I linked. I was going to research the law itself to see which was right. Thank you for saving me that trouble, you are more trustworthy than any media, main street or otherwise. But...

King Tut was great, and I just played my 45, (with a picture sleeve…not for sale), a couple of weeks ago. But it wasn’t a bit, it was a for-real pop hit! I found the one I was thinking of:

Medieval Doctor was my very favorite Steve Martin routine on Saturday Night Live. The bit he did with Dan Ackroyd, Wild and Crazy Guys, was hilarious as well. I guess that’s my favorite followed by Medieval Doctor. That crazy dance he did with Gilda Radner was amazingly funny and now quite...

https://jalopnik.com/desantis-signs-bill-blocking-direct-to-consumer-car-sal-1850543086 I’m glad they carved out an exception for automakers of exclusively electric vehicles, but it seems like that could be challenged by ICE manufacturers, (to allow for direct sales), or ICE dealers, to...

If we had not trimmed our TSLA positions before the splits we would have 53% more shares. If we had not used the proceeds to invest in the “next Teslas” we would be a bit better off. (I don’t want to do the math on that one.) If the dog hadn’t stopped to………rabbit.

Our travel plans include Vegas from 9/23 to 9/26, but if you cannot wait until then I will understand.

Got 'em: Sorry, not for sale. The album still sounds pretty, pretty good. The digital copy also sounds fantastic in my 2018 Model 3, (also not for sale!)

Huge whack-a-mole, whack-a-mole, whack-a-mole, whack-a-mole, little whack-a-mole, little whack, little whack, little whack…. Thought @Papafox might need a little help reading this morning’s chart. /s (I know he doesn’t.)

I had to look up that word a month or so ago when one of my posts got deleted for "doxxing." I was totally innocent, let me explain...oh, never mind. I had paraphrased a song by David Crosby, may he rest in peace. Here's the old "doxxer" singing a portion of that song in the first minute of...

Recently my wife’s niece and her roommates stayed with us on their way to Florida. While she and one of her roommates went to the beach, we went for a walk with her other roommate at the local YMCA. On our way back, we stopped at the grocery store and my wife went in for a couple of items...

Like Ice-9?

Ouch!

“…It isn’t hard to do.”

I’ve been watching Rob Maurer’s YouTube channel for the past couple of years. Yesterday’s program was the first time that I know of that he acknowledged the options market might have had something to do with the closing share price. (Where else could he have gotten that idea?) As for whether...

I think we can expect @Papafox to insert one of his red dots on my chart at $185.

Even though historically the positions of CEO and Technoking have always been held by the same person, I don't think its a legal requirement. I think we can vote Elon in as Technoking for life.

Yes, I’ve noticed this myself. I keep my car plugged in most of the time when it is in the garage. My current off-peak hours are from 11PM to 7AM, (called super off-peak by GA Power). I set my charging time to start at 11:30 PM and there is no issue of not finishing charging by the 7AM cutoff...
