Elon Musk

The old Porsches had it, Harley's still have it, we are a tight group of owners who needs a way to say "hey Tesla Buddy". A wink using the driver side headlight and rear brake light could be fun. A double tap on the emergency flasher button or a double pull on the headlight stalk could be a...

Didn't see this posted yet, apologies if it was. Elon Musk teases new ‘Tesla Supercharger V3’ with over 350 kW power output and off-grid solar + Powerpacks

Just released a few days ago...

I was posting on the M3 forum but I wanted to know if anyone got a notification on their app at a supercharger that their charging is near completion and that a fee will incur if they don't remove their car. I'm want to know how much the penalty is and how it is being enforced. Does Elon give...

Hey, don't know if this is the right forum area, but was playing around with the words to "Santa Baby" in my head and ended up rewriting the verses as a Christmas wish list to Elon as a fun little holiday exercise. I know, I know, don't quit my day job...

Earlier this year there were folks who were quite upset that there had been no new news about the 3 and I thought at the time that they just needed to relax. Well now my ability to relax is waning. It's been over eight months with no news (unless you count "oh by the way, the 3 will have all...

When can I configure and purchase an X 100D this year? I'm ready to pull the trigger on an X at any time. Even before Jan 1. Pre-approved, etc. Watching for 100D since last quarter. The message to Tesla is: if I order a 90D today [regrets aside] Tesla will be leaving $$$ on the table...

How can we end Big Oil's control over our future? Right-wing group led by Trump propagandist launches campaign against Elon Musk, Tesla and SpaceX

Some republican is now working with propaganda to stop Elon and his companies, lets hope that as many as possible look through all lies and spread the right information. I believe and hope it won't affect Tesla and SpaceX but it's hard to say now how mush it will be spread. Right-wing group led...

Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk Says Future of Autonomous Cars is Nigh | NVIDIA Blog

I'm a super excited new Tesla Model S owner. I'm curious: after hearing Elon Musk's announcement that "full self driving hardware" are already being installed on all cars - - DOES MINE HAVE IT? Is there a way to find out?? Here's the timing of my order/ pick up: Ordered: 8/22 Order...

Hi guys ! Yesterday that old guy the retired VC of General Motors called the Tesla Community a "religious cult" and said Tesla as a business will not survive... I have taken an overview of his thoughts and some data to unveil this guy's shady intentions in my latest artcle here: Elon Musk vs...

For me October 19, 2016 marked the climax of Tesla's story and in some ways makes me a bit sad. Like a kid opening Christmas presents, the "big ones" have now all been unwrapped. 2008 - Act 1 - Setup - Roadster hits the market 2012 - Act 2 - Confrontation - Model S hits the market - first long...

It seems to me that every time a major change is announced that a few people decide to write an open letter and post it on the forums basically venting how they have been wronged and what a horrible thing has been done to them as a result of some improvement or change the Tesla has made ...

In the press call in response to a question about the new cameras potentially being effected by rain and snow, Elon said that the 3 forward cameras high up at the center of the windshield have their own heater element to prevent ice buildup and that they are in the area covered by the wipers...

During the conference call, at 1:50 into the call Elon said that all Teslas built using the new "Enhanced Autopilot" hardware are run using "Tesla Vision software" no 3rd party software. "It is a Tesla developed neural net" for camera image processing. Here is the audio: at

I am thrilled to see the progress Tesla is making on the new Model S/X/3 towards full autonomous vehicles. I am very disheartened that I bought (not leased, as I think Model S is a car worth 10yr of supremely enjoyable ownership) a $90K Model S brand new from your factory on Tuesday (18th Oct)...

Elon from Twitter: "Using the automated solid metal snake charger :)" And he confirms that he isn't kidding - "no, that's real" Metal snake will enable Tesla driving itself across countries in fully autonomous mode.

We all bought AP when we ordered our MX or MS. Any guess how much does it cost to upgrade to Musk said?

Right on schedule, magical self driving robot car is unveiled and we have:

Elon Musk on Twitter @elonmusk This is also what I was alluding to by Model 3 part 2 Tesla’s upcoming announcement is Part 2 of the Model 3 reveal - TechCrunch Tesla’s upcoming announcement is Part 2 of the Model 3 reveal

Elon just tweeted in response to someone asking about HUD... This is also what I was alluding to by Model 3 part 2 This is so exciting!!!

Elon Musk says first 12 months of Tesla Model 3 production are ‘sold out’, what does it mean for the federal tax credit? No surprise here, given the number of Model 3s already reserved by the first week and the planned production rate (even with the accelerated schedule,).

The important question everyone wants to know! What will happen with Elon's mustache? How about that cookie duster? How much lip luggage can you fit in a Tesla? Is he optimizing the distribution of hair on his head with the 'ol push broom?

Elon Musk’s House of Gigacards This article appeared in the Business section of MIT technology Review 10/11/2016 Business Elon Musk’s House of Gigacards The founder of Tesla, SolarCity, and SpaceX is deservedly admired for his technological insight. But is his latest business plan reckless...

I'm old, but this old fart has a lot of moxie to go after Tesla: Coal-mining boss: ‘Tesla is a fraud’ Big coal companies have received more than there fair share of subsidies over the years. He's really in denial if he believes coal has much of a future: Federal coal subsidies - SourceWatch

I'm sure most of you have seen Elon's tweet from yesterday... "Tesla product unveiling on the 17th (unexpected by most), followed by Tesla/SolarCity on the 28th" Hmmm, my guess is the rumored ride-share program to rival Uber and Lyft but that's just a wild stab. Anyone have an inside line?

This Tesla Model S is the performance P85 - the fastest production sedan car of 2013. It is fully loaded with many extras including tech package, heated seats, 21in tires with grey rims - black on black with red piping on the bucket seats. 11x17 in display puts the driver in command of this next...

Elon's Paris Q+A earlier this year - jump to about 12:45 V8.0 clearly doesn't have this, so is it coming in v8.1? There's talk of updated OS 4.4 and new browser features and other stuff but this I think is the biggie for many of us. And, honestly if they don't deliver on something along...
