Tesla had to pay $500 a month just for the right to set up superchargers at Harris Ranch on I5 back then. I met the owner of the restaurant. I bet they don't pay a dime now.

Nope, laws are such that everybody has to pay the same "destination" charge. It doesn't matter if you pick it up as it comes off the factory line or they have to ship it to Hawaii/Alaska.
But I assume that the warranty would start from the mileage on the car at the point that you take possession. So it would give you a nice "free" break-in period on the car.

Disruption is hard.
Good idea. He has an inflated ego.

Looks like Michigan is collecting sales tax upon titling the vehicle. And, if the transaction is done online and the vehicle is delivered in Michigan, there's not even another state who collected sales tax first.
Yes - we got our Model 3 within Tesla’s original time estimate. Interestingly, it was the exact day that @Troy ‘s spreadsheet estimated.
A little OT
As a TSLA shareholder these days I feel like I’m Michael Burry (played by Christian Bale in the movie) in “The Big Short”. The path that Tesla is on is crystal clear to me…and the rest of the world (present company excepted) is in massive denial and peddling bullshit.

Iceland can't buy yet.
People always forget that there's large chunks of the world which can't buy yet. It makes the "there's no demand" argument particularly annoying to those of us who can't.

The ARK ETF's are loving the lower prices on TSLA.
ARKK purchased 19,302 shares
ARKQ purchased 2,469 shares
ARKW purchased 5,721 shares
today. They've been buying pretty consistently the last few days.
And when we get back to $300 or $325, then we'll see shares being sold again (which at least for me provides good rationale for their concentration limit, and enables the ARK funds to "swing trade" TSLA quite effectively
).
EDIT: @Curt Renz and I were writing at the same time.

Nope, Michigan only collects the difference between the sales tax you paid in the other state and MI's 6%.
Other Michiganders correct me on this, but delivered sales (not sure if those are even being done in MI) are still sold out of state. All documentation/ temp registration, and even discussions about price have to be with a non-Michigan based person/ store..
Sounds like either part of the previously announced layoffs, or a trivial addition - 81 vs. 3000)
OT 2 : Along those lines, Swedish grammar rules that a comparison to the benefits of another fishery with, if you will pardon the diacritics, one on the West Coast (where I live) can end in a cluster of consonants: västkust-sk-t-s (6), or even better, one in Far East Russia: Irkutsk-sk-t-s. (7)
Enough morphemes to put anyone to sleep.

Which is why diligent bulls like @schonelucht and @neroden were eager to learn about nuggets of information the DB analyst extracted from Tesla management ...
Seriously, the notion that no material non-public information is shared in such private calls is ridiculous: in equity finance everything is about having a small edge over other investors, and getting "clarification" from management can easily remove ambiguities or highlight low key remarks, which can be worth gold. Furthermore, to certain questions even "silence", "no comment" or a significant pause can carry information.
Nobody is saying that they are sharing huge pieces of material information with analysts, but they don't have to, "nuggets" are valuable enough ...

Definitely shouldn't have to use an app, but I could see people wanting to have the app on their phone even without owning a Tesla product yet. I have a recent college graduate friend who is saving for a Model 3. "MTT" he calls it. "Months Till Tesla.". These types would love to be part of the Tesla club ahead of time I suspect. I can envision cool stuff it could do to keep non-owners stoked. I'm not saying this is a high priority software project, but nice to have.
Oh come on. Any layoffs/firing over the month or so can easily just be grouped into the layoff announcement from last month. These aren't new layoffs.

Better TSLA coverage on Bloomberg going forward?

Also, the occasional volcano eruption adding 100 mile detours?
Iceland is on the way to become one of the first EV-majority countries, Supercharger redundancy is good.
