I also highly recommend watching Upgrade. And no, I don't think it makes sense for Tesla to make or sell a phone.

I'm on vacation in Corpus Christi, Texas right now and drove from northeastern Nebraska in my Model 3. The charging was quick and easy because I used the navigation and the car planned all the charging stops and charging durations along the way. The planning was right on for this 19 hour...

All Long Range Dual Motor Model Y (and Model 3) have the option to add Acceleration Boost.

My Model 3 is just about to turn 5 years old and currently has 105,500 miles. In 3 years it will likely be at around 200,000 miles. I wouldn't buy any other EV besides a Tesla, and would definitely never go back to ICE. I've only had a few minor service items on my Model 3 that were covered...

A lot of the incidents I've read about happened some time ago when Tesla was still using the front facing radar for AP/FSD. The initial disclaimer one consents to when first enabling AP/FSD specifically called out the limitation that the system may not correctly identify stationary objects in a...

Well, it looks like Aptera will be including DC Fast Charging on their Launch Edition vehicles after all! 40-60kW (will depend on testing and validation), so that is something good that it will have that Arcimoto didn't

I don't think Aptera will have the same fate. I have one reserved, even though I'm not sure I will end up getting it. I would never buy the Arcimoto because I see it as an expensive toy for a lifestyle that I'm not into. The Aptera, on the other hand, is a practical commuter vehicle. I drive...

I think I remember someone saying (maybe it was Sandy Munro) that there was a Chinese EV manufacturer that was also planning to use large castings like Tesla. Can't remember if it was XPeng or NIO. Also don't know if they would use IDRA machines or a local Chinese company's machines. Just...

I used to have the same feelings for Canoo just based on appearance. But after watching this video with Sandy Munro I grew to like it somewhat despite it's outside appearance ?. I still wouldn't invest any money on Canoo even though I hope they are successful. They don't have a proven track...

Yes, I was reading on social media about some people that are ready to jump off the bandwagon as soon as they can sell with no loss. If a lot of shareholders think like that, it could take longer to recover. But good thing I'm in it for the long haul (at least multiple more years).

I put in a buy order for about $2000 worth of stock today (won't take effect until tomorrow). I plan on holding it for years along with some other shares of TSLA that I have.

Ok, I guess I misread (misunderstood) your comment :) I myself contribute to 401(k) enough to take advantage of company match, and max out my Roth IRA every year. In past years, I used to max out my 401(k) and didn't have a Roth IRA. I do have money in a traditional IRA from company stock that...

Don't sell TSLA right now unless it's a very last resort. Or if you got the stock very early enough where you still end up making a profit, and if it's a last resort.

The break even point depends on how much you drive per year. If you don't drive much at all, then it could be many years. Some of us that drive a lot will break even in a year or less.

I agree that the megapack doesn't look that big on the drawing. They are usually a shipping container filled with batteries, electronics, and cooling. Also, the megapack will mainly serve to balance the load on the grid and to store energy from the PV system.

No, Tesla has said they are not interested in making chips. It's not cheap nor easy to do so. What Tesla will do is reduce the amount of chips and consolidate functionality into less chips, even if it requires custom ones. Tesla does not shy away from that, unlike other automakers that want...

Two possible reasons why it doesn't have FSD: 1. You said it was sold through auction. There are cases where Tesla will sell a car traded back to them or returned from lease to a reseller that seems at auction. The terms could be that FSD is not included in the transfer. 2. The car could...
