Haven't we all heard "Get out of my kitchen!" ?

Wrong, not per model - total sales..

Your second point " • Federal purchase credit incentives for EVs paid for by all of us (in US), for years" refers I don't understand the point you are trying to make. The previous incentive to which you refer applied only for the first 200000 vehicles sold. Both GM and Tesla passed this mark...

"Tesla better be getting paid adequately for supercharger use by other brands" Yes they are. They are getting a fortune in Federal funds to expand the existing charging network. We are getting the network hugely enlarged by courtesy of Federal funding. Yes, we will have to share with other...

Yes and no. Tesla are the ones with the factory building charging stations. Look at the stats on new charging stations coming online. Tesla produce so many more charging stations than all the others so, just like in EVs, the others are trying to play catch-up with a runaway train. Tesla won't...

This is a very big deal for Tesla. Imagine one manufacturer having the lions share of all the equivalent of "gas stations". Don't underestimate the significance for Tesla. To be the main player in the recharging business of all EVs is a mega big deal in the years ahead.

Ug, Ugly, Uglier....

I haven't seen any ads where they even mention that the vehicle has FSD or the performance boost. I would definitely pay extra for those features if I were shopping for a used Tesla.

When comparing a train and a truck freewheeling to a stop, doesn't the difference it weight, (therefore difference in kinetic energy) play a big part?

I paid 7k for FSD for my Model 3 and I'm OK with that. I wouldn't pay more than that. What ticks me off is 2 things: firstly, it stays with the car and secondly it doesn't seem to add 1 cent to my resale value. Ditto my 2K performance upgrade. I reserved my CT with the 7K FSD and trust Tesla...

But they need special pads that connect into holes at the jacking point. Not supplied oe so have to buy aftermarket. The pads reduce the space for you jack to get under so I have a small 6” x 1 1/2” block to drive onto get get that extra bit of ground clearances

Invest a few bucks in a set of jacking pads and keep them in your car for “in case” Also keep a little block of 6” x 1 1/2” timber in your trunk so that you can drive your flat tire onto the wood block to get a bit of extra clearance. With the lifting pad inserted, there is not enough clearance...

I got a puncture in DC on a Saturday evening. Don’t want to go through that ever again. I now carry a Mustang space saver spare wheel in my model 3. This phoning Tesla service for help is a joke, believe me!

Hi to $642

I bought at 1100.00, 1090.27, 1093.24, 1078.00, 1044.57, 1031.00, 1000.50, 988.00 993.98, 982.50, 977.27, 863.5, 863.01, 863.02, 864.64, 876.40, 899.53, 875.01, 870.50, 750.00. Talking about trying to catch falling knives! I am now sitting on the sidelines watching. This is my Cybertruck money...

$700.81 was the low today. (5/18/2022) Just 82 cents lower and it would be $699.99.... Sadly, no glasses are required.

I am with you on this. I ordered fsd @ $7K. At $12K I don't want it. I have fsd on my Model 3 and I am happy with it @ $7K. Until it is genuine level 4 it is not worth the extra $5K to me.

On a similar vein I have an 18 yr old F150 with high end trim, low miles and if I flogged it I might get $6k. Its not worth selling as it is unmarked, no rust, lived in a garage & been properly serviced. I fortunately have lots of garage space so I should just keep it to fill in any gaps the CT3...

It seems like quite a few Superchargers do have facility to accommodate vehicles towing - but not all. The problem, as I see it, with having a short range is that you become very limited in your choice of supercharger locations and conceivably, if you have say only a 90 mile range, you may not...

Any idea why the Wh/Mile usage seems to not vary much according to the size of trailer being towed - based on the various YouTube videos? I would have expected a much higher Wh/Mile where you are towing a big heavy trailer and this doesn't appear to be the case.
