Thanks for signing the petition asking Mattel to add the Model S to their Hot Wheels line! (attached) One of our Teslive aficionados has a friend at Mattel who just happens to work in the Hot Wheels division, so we'll send this petition directly to him. I'll keep you posted about any response...

Thank you to all who humored me with your handiwork with a marker on my Tesla shirt. It was an idea that popped into my head during the travels in California. For those of you that didn't attend or didn't get to sign, I plan to be there next year but please keep the writing to the designated...

To all who organized Teslive - Thank you for being so generous with your time and talents (and probably a few of your own $$, too) and putting together such a great conference. I know some names were read off at the opening session, but I'd sure appreciate a published list so all here can know...

I was at the end of the waitlist for the TESLIVE tours, so I'd booked a factory tour the regular way for Monday. I was the only one there! So, I got my very own factory tour. My guide was Jamie Hawn, a super nice, totally gorgeous lady who Tesla had recruited (and rescued) from a career in...

1. The lanyard looks great on pete8314's key fob holder. 2. Flip the name tag over and write your contact details on it with a sharpie, perfect size and material for a windscreen note when you're plugged in somewhere. 3. Name tag is also just stiff enough to double SE as a tool for prying off...

I believe I heard at Teslive Saturday that each of the breakout sessions would be video'ed and made available. Is this the case, and if so, how do I go about viewing them?

Are they posted anywhere, or are they contacted privately?

Yup, I'm way too accustomed to just getting out and walking away from my car. Parked the rental last night and walked back into the hotel but left the headlights on. Dead battery this morning! :redface: Interesting to note that I had three other Tesla owners with me last night and none of them...

Cannot see any way to request the "reward" promised when survey completed. Go to the Registration area of the Teslive site, and no button or indication. Thanks.

Uploaded my photos from TESLIVE at the following link: TESLIVE 2013 Photo Gallery I'll add some more from today's group drive after I get home to Colorado. What a great event, beautifully organized and so much fun for the participants. Many thanks to Renee Swenson and the other...

If anyone needs a ride to the factory this morning I have room for two in the rental. I am planning to leave around 11

Mercury News Write up Cross posted from my blog: I spent Saturday at the first Teslive event. The day went smoothly with the clear highlights were Elon’s Q&A and the speech by the vegetarian female enviornmentalist race car driver Leilani Munter. Her speech highlighted the process of change...

I would like to point out what Leilani says at minute 17 of this video in TESLIVE: http://new.livestream.com/accounts/4427414/events/2248894/videos/24304588 "I know that the more races I win the more poeple will listen and so I drive with the determination that comes from the deepest part of...

But the Real Question Is: Does the Goat Have Herpes?

A bunch of us are at Darda Seafood Restaurant across from the hotel. Outstanding halal Chinese food! Darda Seafood Restaurant - Milpitas, CA

I was planning to come early today(right now), to have continental breakfast buffet (yeah that was pictured in my mind) and meet people in the Hotel. Then just checked the agenda and unlike tomorrow Sunday, there is no breakfast on today! Any breakfast plan? Ideally we don't need to go...

Crowne plaza 3rd floor

We have a Facebook page that will be live uploading images from the photobooth. Stay tuned!

Just arrived. There is good Chinese food in the mall across the street. Non-Californians should check out the 99 Ranch Market for all kinds of random Asian goodies. My mom took me to the Darda Seafood Restaurant here. They have halal Chinese food! Great lamb. Lets get a group together and...

I'm not going to Teslive but I am in the Bay Area (Santa Clara) this week. I fly out at 9:00pm from SFO on Friday night. Are there any plans for a meet up on Friday afternoon or evening, or is it just the event registration?

Meet at Sevens Bar and Grill in hotel at 7PM and we can decide where to go from there depending on how many show up. Or just eat at the hotel.

This is a long shot but I am SF downtown now, anyone heading over to Crowne Plaza hotel in the next 2-4 hours? And willing to give me a ride? I can head over to SFO if easier.

Where will you charge?

Very excited to see many people flying to the Teslive HQ as of now! I am very curious if anyone coming from Europe? Or for that matter, Asia or any continent other than North America? We should have some special treats for the out-of-continents, at least for this year!

Is there an attendee list anywhere? It's great that you gave everyone attending a "badge", but is there a list of everyone attending, with screen name, where they're coming in from? That would be excellent!

this is going to be fun! i am looking forward to meeting everyone!

What's on the menu? Is there some kind of a program guide? What will happening there? Is there some kind of a timetable? How long will the TESLIVE event be? When will the attendants arrive, and when will they leave again? We know there will be a Q&A session with Elon Musk, that's something...

I'm wondering what exhibitors will be there. I know that there was talk about car wash. Will there be any detailers there for full details and paint correction?

I see on the agenda several breakout sessions to select from, like any typical conference, however there is usually a paragraph detailing what the session will cover. I'm not clear on which ones I want to select. Are there short descriptions somewhere? From what I see, we select 1 of 4 in the...

Is anyone attending the event who does not own a Tesla ?

The Update email from Teslive states: I'm not 100% sure what an "E-Note" is, but it's not quite a Keynote, so I'm wondering...

At the most recent shareholders event Elon mentioned that by the end of the year he is planning to take a trip from the west coast to the east coast to prove viability . In addition he said that the supercharger network will be complete In which model s owners could drive east to west and vise...

In general, who is leading the breakout sessions? Tesla staff or TMC members? For example, the first time block has a session entitled "Designing the Model S". That seems like something that someone who was involved in actually designing it would lead. Other sessions, like 'The Tesla...

If you are coming to Teslive from the Bay Area, can you let me know if I can check out your paint armor install? I'm particularly interested in XPEL installs. I had a beautiful wrap done by Premiere in Fremont but it was very expensive. I'm picking up a new Model S on monday and plan to get it...

On Friday, TESLIVE exhibitions are from 2 - 7 pm on Friday, with a "networking reception" also being held from 6 - 9 pm. I am spending my time outside of the in San Francisco and I am wondering if there is any reason I should try to show up to TESLIVE right at 2 pm on Friday. Otherwise, I was...

We are pleased to announce those who are driving their SC MS to TESLIVE have two new stops to fill up. Highway 101 Superchargers Now Open in California! 6950 El Camino Real Atascadero, CA 93422 24 hrs/day • 8 Charging Stalls555 McMurray Road Buellton, CA 93427 24 hrs/day • 8...

Will there be a livestream made available for TESLIVE for the fans who are not there? For the whole event, or for certain part(s) of the event? That would be really nice.

At today's closing price, a sale of 43 TSLA shares would allow anyone to become a Founder. Many of us have likely benefited in our investment in both the car and the stock with the knowledge we've gained form the TMC forums and will as well from what we'll learn at the conference. When I...

There seems to be some basic info missing from the TESLIVE site. Does it start and end every day at the Crowne Plaza hotel? I don't think this is stated explicitly, or maybe I'm just being thick. Will I have to get myself to the Tesla factory at any point? If so, what's the exact address...

Beyond supporting the awesome folks at TMC, why did you take the leap? Tesla cookies on the pillows at night? An empty 18650 cell as a keychain?

Has anyone received their hotel confirmation for the Crowne Plaza? I thought that they were to be sent by June 12th but I have not received anything yet.

I put this in the TesLive section because the event might be a good place to launch this idea. I think we should have T-shirts made that say something like... I'm thinking that a batch of them could be distributed for a modest fee (near cost). I'd be interested in buying one and (if the...

Assuming Mr Musk will answer questions at Teslive I was thinking about what I would ask him? ipdamages and Dave were asking about a Roadster repair manual, something that I have wondered about At the stockholder's meeting there were many questions we already knew the answers to. Then there is...

I live in Mountain View. I see lots of Tesla's on the road in the mid-Pennisula. Any chance one of you is going to TESLIVE and I could catch a ride with you Friday to Milpitas? -Lori

Gauging interest in having a mobile car washer in the parking lot to give your ride a little TESLOVE. TMC members and attendees would pay the car detailer directly for the service of a wash or detail. With many cars coming hundreds of miles we thought some road weary Teslas would want a...

Teslive will be the first time I have really ventured out of Illinois, because of this I was thinking about spending time after teslive in California. Could anyone suggest tourists things to do around the hotel area?

For those of you that do not already know me, my name is Elie Rothstein and I have been customizing Tesla cars since 2008 at my Al & Ed's Autosound store located in West Hollywood, CA. I am proud to say that we have customized over 100 Tesla cars over the years and now with the popularity of the...

True story, I had a dream about TESLIVE... I was actually talking to Elon, gushing about how I've been following Tesla and SpaceX over the years. You know, a real fanboy. Something didn't look quite right about him... (yeah, I know it's a dream). The hair was too blonde, the teeth weren't...

Anyone up for a drive to Bay 101 or Casino Matrix for some Hold 'Em on Friday of the conference? I can drive.
