Seems to me the blogger in good conscious should ask for his $5k deposit back on the Model X he previously stated he reserved.
If I was Tesla CEO, I'd return his $5k and tell him he couldn't have one.
I see you spotted what I noticed from looking at some of his other articles (which primarily trash Android and Google).Nope, it has paid off very well for him in terms of attention and notoriety.
He has a gift for framing things in a light that makes them seem much worse than they really are (case in point - we all know Tesla can track your vehicle just like any other vehicle with telematics). He might want to go write campaign ads for some of this year's candidates.
This is not a storage problem. It is a "I'm too lazy or too stupid to plug in a plug-in car" problem. The Roadster can safely be stored for as long as you like. You just have to plug it in. It's an electric car, for crying out loud!In layman's terms, the spec says just parking your car for a couple of months can destroy your $40K battery. So, now instead of Range Anxiety, we have Storage Anxiety. That is a design error.
I was informed numerous times: By my salesman, by the disclosure agreement I signed, by the owner's manual, by my "advocate."I think if money is spent on this issue, the best place to spend it is perhaps to call up owners and inform them about it...

When asked about my Roadster or electrics in general the largest objection raised is the cost of the battery. I am afraid I do not have a good answer to give them.

Even as an EV owner I really see this as a problem. Lets say you are away at a summer home, two month mission trip, long vacation and there is a storm and the breaker trips on the car.
Another possibility is last year I had a bad bicycle accident and if it were not for my helmet I would not be writing. A few months in the hospital suddenly became a possibility. Since my wife has no desire to drive the Tesla would she verify it was plugged in?
Unless it was in storage mode.If there is a storm and the breaker trips that means you left it plugged in, so it started with a full charge and you've got plenty of time to take your 2 month trip.
