    Need your help....

    Hello Tesla fans, I'm a Tesla employee at the Tilburg assembly plant in Netherlands. I'm looking for a screensaver with the theme of "Tesla production hell".

    New Elon Musk Company: "Missile Command Co."

    I'm not a scientist nor engineer but with the huge roll out of Model 3, the future of autonomous driving and considering the current state of global turmoil wouldn't this make total sense for Elon's next venture: "Missile Command Co."? This is how it would work: Once full driving autonomy is...

    Orientation for rear Blackvue dash camera

    Just wondering if someone can give feedback on the rear dash camera. My install, for rear view camera, on the Blackvue app shows the left image as right and the right as left. In other words, it is exact opposite of what Tesla rearview camera shows. Before I take this up with the installer, I...

    Morons... what should I do with them?

    During evening commute hours when rest of traffic was < 10mph, these two BMW & Mustangs were on fire lane perhaps going 50+mph. I had to move to my right within the lane just out of instinct, and could have hit motorcycles that usually lane-share & cross cars on the right side of carpool lane...

    Cat fight! Musk disses Zuck: "...understanding of AI is limited."

    Burn. Zing. Zowie. Elon Musk says Mark Zuckerberg's understanding of AI is 'limited' I don't know why but I find the back and forth subtle twitter burns by these two genius egomaniac billionaires to be quite hilarious.

    Tesla Factory Tour

    Just called Tesla and it turns out you have to be an owner or an employee to schedule a tour of the factory in Fremont. I've been obsessed with Tesla and Elon for years and it would mean the world to see where it all comes together. The customer support lady hinted that if a friend was an...

    P85DL bad for my morale.

    I had my annual service done on my regular-old 85S. They gave me a P85DL loaner for the day. Now I'm ruined. My car is so freaking slow to me now. We took the Ludicrous machine out and launched it many times during lunchtime at work. I got to experience the laughing and incredulous...

    So my Uncle Frank wants me to come to his car shows. I'm pretty much in a class of my own but whatever--the old timers are giving props, and as much as I'm a life-long advocate of all electric, I'll always drool over these classic gas guzzlers. Uncle Frank bought the '72 454 big block new in...

    Got a sexy stablemate for my S to cuddle all night long...

    She doesn't have to spend her nights alone any longer. Women love a manly man who works hard all day - well, she got her desire. He may smell like sweat, grass and bugs when he comes home to her - but he mows and mows and mows 'til the job is done, and that turns her on to no end. No more gas...
