aipdsu | showerthought: Tesla should cancel the 2nd roadster given to referrers | Was reading about teslas referral program was getting out of hand. I totally agree that people who referred a lot of people should get a decent reward and in some cases even a roadster. One roadster. - Receiving two roadsters is just batshit insane. Giving them away is definitely not viable for the company. If all the great teslatubers and tesla superfans truely are what they are called then they should be ok with not receiving another roadster and instead help the company by doing so. Maybe its greed or hate that made me write this. but in the end i care about tesla as a company. ¯\_(ツ)_ ¯ | Flopublic | 2019-01-22 17:51:14 | 93 | eepfj6f | Getting two free roadsters does seem...excessive. I m pretty sure I d be happy with just one but that s just me. | swotam | 2019-01-22 17:54:21 | 12 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

6qbmg5 | so here s my humility thread: I was wrong… | I was sure they d include a keyfob and I m sad they won t but I ll live. I was sure the LR model would be over 4 000 pounds and I was super wrong about that. I was expecting heated power seats in the front to be standard. Everything else though? About what I expected though I kinda feared that the big battery + glass roof + premium audio + leather plus ???? that I would want (turns out to be heated and power seats) would be closer to $60k so the fact that I ll be paying almost 10% less than my max budget makes me happy.

a0zvut | son adores Tesla cars would love to find him some toys and or books! | Hi all! As the title states my almost 6 year old son is in love with Tesla cars he doesn t stop talking about them watches dozens of youtube videos about them and tells me all about them. We were in a supermarket a few weeks ago and when we got back to our car in the car park a Tesla was parked next to us and he was almost crying he was so happy the entire day just smiling and talking about it. I ve already sourced a couple of hot wheels cars for him which he loves but I would love to find any other kind of toys or books for him as Christmas is approaching and his birthday is in February. Please let me know if you have any ideas I m thinking he d love ANYTHING Tesla branded like even something silly like a keyring or pen through to books or toys. Please let me know guys I d be so incredibly grateful (preferably in the UK or with shipping that isn t extortionate) below is a pic of him next to the Tesla in the car park (don t worry I asked the owner if I could take a pic of his car and covered the numberplate!!)

5pxqc6 | stock still rises somebody please explain why | Now I just noticed that the stock right now as I wright this post is at 253 48 dollars. Can somebody please explain to me why it just keeps growing right now I mean I really like that but I also want to understand why it does that. Is it because of the meetings with Trump their expansion in Taiwan or something else ? Edit: thanks for your helpful comments :D | skopf87 | 2017-01-24 18:19:18 | 34 | dcuoqyr | Ok I ll bite. Tesla held a meeting with institutional investors to show them their progress on the biggest factory (by floor space) in the world. They showed them a convincing story about how Tesla can carry out a super ambitious plan that could make Tesla a trillion dollar company in the long term. Tesla got some upgrades out of it. One famous short attended and declared he wouldn t short again. Anyone who was afraid Faraday Future would come along and steal market share no longer has that fear. The fear that all the other OEMs are coming out with Tesla killers before the Model 3 comes out has subsided. Nissan had plenty of opportunity to do something. The most compelling is the very limited production Bolt. But most importantly the Model 3 timeline has not slipped. We are 6 months away from the deadline for all the production parts to hit the factory and we have no indication that anything at all is slipping. | john_atx | 2017-01-24 18:57:07 | 32 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

Can somebody please explain to me why it just keeps growing right now I mean I really like that but I also want to understand why it does that. Is it because of the meetings with Trump their expansion in Taiwan or something else ? Edit: thanks for your helpful comments :D | skopf87 | 2017-01-24 18:19:18 | 34 | dcurp6v | There are four levels of reasons: On the surface some shorts are covering - the beginning phase of a short squeeze. Some shorts can t hold onto it as it goes higher. The deeper reason is technical based: when this stock climbs above $215 it has to reach $250. Ask any experienced technical traders they probably can predict that. The third level is related to news. It seems Trump wants to encourage production in the US. Tesla produces in the US. The fundamental reason is this stock has an intrinsic value that s several fold higher than $250. I wouldn t be worried to add more at $250 or $350 or $850. Right now I am patiently waiting for a pullback. Within each level there are many little reasons. The Jan 4th analyst meeting is a significant catalyst. Those 150 person can move tens of trillions of dollars. Many of them realized the potential is huge (new batteries). Tesla stock as a merchant has limited supply the demand is huge. The longs want to add more those on the side decided to buy some shorts decided to cover. It seems Tesla s self driving is coming despite lots of people thinking other companies are ahead (not true). The government investigation cleared Tesla from the Joshua Brown case. New Tesla self driving semi bus pickup truck are coming Tesla network is coming. AJ upgraded the stock target to $305 (though I don t think he understands Tesla s potential based on what he said). Model 3 seems to be on schedule and it s going to be self-driving. The demand will go to 20 million a year. Can things go wrong? I see a few but those major shorts are in deep trouble because they are blind when they view Tesla. They think Tesla is just a car company. we will see what happens. | Bobsky2 | 2017-01-24 19:51:33 | 17 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

You have to remember that when SpaceX lost the Amos-6 satellite it dropped a lot. It dropped initially (with many other stocks) with Trump s win. It dropped when NHTSA launched the investigation into the autopilot fatality. It is now recovering from each of these setbacks almost simultaneously. Trump s win turns good for Tesla not only that but Elon has an in with him. SpaceX had a successful return to flight. NHTSA cleared the investigation and even claimed that autopilot reduces accidents by 40%. | the_inductive_method | 2017-01-24 21:34:18 | 8 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

This app is mine. This was supposed to be a quiet soft launch but so much for that. < g> If you have any feedback feel free to post an issue on [https: github.com tesLAXApp tesLAX](https: github.com tesLAXApp tesLAX) or find me here or on one of the other forums. Keep in mind this is really just for fun and learning on the weekends. I have a bunch of ideas and will get to them in time... assuming life doesn t get in the way. No promises warranties or guarantees. A few notes MX+ only (the PLUS is important because its the only MFi certified bluetooth accessory.) Yes I can use BLE without MFi but that s not my priority currently. The new 2020.8 update may impact the correctness and reliability of some signals. You can import one of u jwardell s DBCs with the latest or wait for an update. No one s really maintaining the S X like Josh is for the Model 3... and I don t own one. I ve included some information I ve leanerde from various places but its incomplete and possibly incorrect. If someone has a definitive DBC for the S X then please get in touch and I can include it in the default database -- thats why the app says Model 3 in mind . | AllAboutJake | 2020-03-10 21:54:20 | 12 | Tesla companion app features |

Linsey Fox is not yet sold on the idea of self driving semi s. Range is in the 400-50 km range. | ozdregs | 2017-11-14 13:02:32 | 78 | dptaht4 | tesla will probably first build out a fleet for their own internal use. they need a significant trucking fleet operating for raw materials parts and finished cars between their factories and customers. This also makes maintenance or repairs convenient because they have plenty of access to them. Plus they can easily add supercharging infrastructure to the loading bays. It will probably be years before tesla delivers more than test vehicles to outside customers. they will probably prove the operation of the trucks and maintenance fuel savings internally and give the data to customers before actually selling any | alberto_tesla | 2017-11-14 17:29:22 | 15 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

eu9qqo | testube - fullscreen entertainment options for your tesla | # Intro This project was born out of inspiration sparked by the TeslaTheater webapp. Kudos to that developer for the idea but I thought that I could make the experience better. By utilizing the Angular web framework and Material Design I think I have achieved that goal. ^(\_) By navigating to the site while in Park there is an option at the bottom of the page to launch in fullscreen. This brings you into the fullscreen theater mode that is usually reserved for just Netflix Hulu YouTube and Twitch. Once in Theater Mode you can choose any of the many services on the app and be brought right to it still in Theater Mode. ^(\_) The webapp is served through SSL on HTTPS so all traffic within it is fully encrypted. That being said I am not storing any user information anyway and any actions within the linked services (such as logging in) are done on their site and therefore not accessible to me. The project is totally open-source and the code is available publically at the Github repository linked below ^(\_) I will be continuously adding features because I am as much of a user as you guys will be. Please do let me know if you have any ideas on how to improve the project. If you don t want to wait for me feel free to become a contributor and create a pull request yourself! # Compatibility I only have a Model 3 and do not know anybody with a Model S or X.

4sea2c | the thought of my model 3 is keeping me sane | Currently stationed in Korea and right now I drive a 2002 Daewoo Leganza. I can t open then driver door from the inside i have to roll down the window and open the door. The backseat get no A C leaving my 3 year old sweating in the back. The auto-shifter get stuck constantly and I have to use the spare key to stick in shifter unlock slot to get it free. The child safety lock doesn t work. Before this car I was in a Japan using a 2005 Nissan Sunny which had even more problems. Along with the korean traffic and their driving habits my car drives me insane. It has now been an on going thing when I get upset about the car my wife simply states Don t worry 1 more year and we ll have that Tesla . I backed the model 3 as soon as i could before the presentation even finished. I always figured I could just get my money back. I have been driving crappy cars for the last 6 years and its infuriating. I just never saw the point of purchasing a 20k car that didn t have anything new to offer. I now just spent 35k on a Tesla. I go back to America around Q3 of 2017 and hopefully shortly there after my model 3 will be available for me. I know many people are excited about certain things with the model 3 I am excited about just having a decent car that I can be proud of. Guess this is more of a rant and venting but the idea of having a tesla is actually a relief of stress for me. Does anyone else have the same feeling about the model 3? | Salt_Lake | 2016-07-12 00:43:21 | 26 | d58mw6k | Absolutely!

3cgokr | thoughts on lifespan? | strongly considering buying a model S in the next few months it will be a significant portion of my inheritance but from what ive read it seems like an amazing investment. Not paying for gas is pretty low down on my reasons for wanting one. Do you guys think a model S could last 20 years with a battery change or 2? how much base value would be retained after 5-10-20 years of use? Im thinking if i buy a model S i might never need to buy another car ever again and that makes the price very worth it. Edit: lots of great responses thanks :) and to clarify i feel like if i bought a model s and never had to buy several other cars in my lifetime and spend tons on gas that would be a pretty good investment. | [deleted] | 2015-07-07 19:41:52 | 10 | csvehgu | Woah there. Before I answer your question (and I know this isn t r personalfinance) but don t blow your inheritance on a car. The Model S is freakin amazing we know. But you have the option of financial security for the rest of your life or an amazing car in your 20 s. Invest your inheritance and be set for life. When you have money it literally makes money for you. Now on to your questions. > Not paying for gas is pretty low down on my reasons for wanting one. This is good. You will spend way less money on fuel in an EV. But at your age this will be completely negated by the insurance premium on the Model S. I d expect it to be over $150 a month. Get a quote. > Do you guys think a model S could last 20 years with a battery change or 2? Tesla leads us to believe that this is the case. It s possible the original battery will last the full 20 years but it will lose its peak state of charge over the years. Right now we know the battery loses [about 5% in 30 000 miles and appears to level off.](http: electrek.co 2015 05 08 tesla-model-s-battery-degradation-shown-to-level-off-at-5-after-30000-miles ) The battery has an 8 year warranty so I d expect no more than 1 replacement over 20 years on average. > how much base value would be retained after 5-10-20 years of use **2 years** - Two year old CPO Teslas are going for about 65% of their original list price. **3 years** - Tesla guarantees about 50% of the original list price for the base model. **5 years** - Guessing here. 30-40% **10 years** - Still Guessing. 10-20% **20 years** - Still Guessing. 0-5% Huge factors involved in long term depreciation here. Depends on battery longevity how often the Model S is redesigned upgraded and the self-driving car effect. Regardless high mileage cars are pretty much worthless after 20 years. > Im thinking if i buy a model S i might never need to buy another car ever again and that makes the price very worth it. Imagine a scenario where instead of paying $80 000 for a car you invest the money and get a reasonable 7% per year return on investment. After 20 years your $80 000 will be worth $300 000. Over the past 10 years I ve personally beat the market with a 20% annual return. This is unrealistic and not the average for most I know. But in my case I might have turned that $80k into $500k in 10 years. Would that be worth having a cool car for the next two decades (though maybe only cool to others for a couple more years)? | jonjiv | 2015-07-07 20:37:20 | 27 | Tesla Model 3 Review |

If you re wondering how to spend your inhertance money spend it on an investment that will return value with time. A car even a Tesla will not do that. | TheAddiction2 | 2015-07-07 23:00:16 | 6 | Tesla Model 3 Review |

All of it was worth it. Your biggest question will be how many seats in back. Ideally I would ve gotten the six-seater for the extra space but we are part of two soccer carpools so the 7-seater is invaluable to me. In 5-6 years when my oldest is in college and it s time to upgrade I ll get the six-seater. | marcosalbert | 2016-11-24 17:07:35 | 11 | Tesla Model 3 Review |

49uanm | update: Seems like my range is drastically low | Hi Folks Original post [here](https: www.reddit.com r teslamotors comments 465sie seems_like_my_range_is_drastically_low ) So my P85 has been in the shop for 1 week now. I received notice today that there in fact is an issue with some of the cells in my battery that was causing me to reflect a much lower actual range than the estimated range. They said the plan is to swap my battery out send it to Fremont repair replace problem cells send it back and replace it. It should take 1-2 months at least.

49uanm | update: Seems like my range is drastically low | Hi Folks Original post [here](https: www.reddit.com r teslamotors comments 465sie seems_like_my_range_is_drastically_low ) So my P85 has been in the shop for 1 week now. I received notice today that there in fact is an issue with some of the cells in my battery that was causing me to reflect a much lower actual range than the estimated range. They said the plan is to swap my battery out send it to Fremont repair replace problem cells send it back and replace it. It should take 1-2 months at least. That s all I know at the moment but I m glad I pushed them on my concern! Cheers fofolala | fofolala | 2016-03-10 16:58:12 | 86 | d0uxfv6 | When they do this they often put a loaner battery pack in your vehicle so you can keep driving in the interim.

46tas8 | using autopilot in traffic how is it? | I am about to face major stop and go traffic 1-2 hours for work each way (91 freeway in socal). I was thinking of getting a tesla to help deal with the traffic. for those with autopilot how much of a difference does autopilot help deal with traffic? does it make it for a relaxing drive? input much appreciated thank you. | erstylin | 2016-02-21 02:25:00 | 22 | d07sqbh | I sold a classic model S to upgrade to it after having driven it for a day. It is a game changer and where it shines MOST is in stop n go. I m in socal as well. From the valley down to LA via the 405 is a complete stress free stroll. Trafffic no longer pisses me off. Just stay in your lane and let the car deal with everyone cutting you off stopping & starting etc. No need to stress | Muzzman1 | 2016-02-21 04:21:31 | 28 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

Finally decided to do a test drive 2 weeks ago then did a 24 hour home loaner test drive a couple days later. I put down my deposit and should be getting my model S at the end of March. The thing that sold me was how amazing autopilot truly is. I only used it for my 30-45 min commute but the stress reduction during the stop and go traffic is unbelievable. | Wagnel | 2016-02-21 03:45:25 | 17 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

My only real complaint is when there is stop and start traffic it brakes to a stop quite a bit more abruptly than I would manually which always makes me nervous about the traffic behind me. Other than that no complaints! | iechicago | 2016-02-21 03:19:28 | 10 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

How it transforms stop and go traffic is the best part of the car. The steering is just icing on the cake. The acid test for me was it stopped working for a week ( something about a miscalibrated sensor that Tesla fixed for free just had to wait for a service appointment ) and every day without it was agonizing. | kartayyar | 2016-02-21 07:05:42 | 7 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

dq81ow | v10 Air Recirculation | I noticed with the v10 update my 3 seems to be randomly deciding when to turn on the the air recirculation . It used to just default to being on all the time. Now it seems to default 90% of the time to be ***off***. What gives? I know there was is an issue with it being on all the time and mold growth occurring (yeah it happened to me) but I thought the solution was an OTA update that ran the fan for a few minutes after parking. I guess that didn t actually solve the issue? I find it annoying as I frequently use the highway and I often don t realize recirculation is off until noxious odors begin creeping into the cabin. Anybody else notice this have insight as to the change (ie - when why it is deciding to turn on or off)? I thought maybe it would auto turn on at highway speeds but that doesn t seem to be the case... & #x200B Edit: I think NoVA\_traveler is probably right about this one. The change actually has nothing to do with v10 and more to do with the change in weather. If the temperature is cold it will default to turn off recirculation as pulling in fresh air by default is better in the winter. | ibelieve2020 | 2019-11-01 18:14:41 | 21 | f616fao | It has always done this.

2gkzqh | we need 130 gigafactories to equal the amount of 65 million car production per year | if we plan to replace all cars today with electric cars. we would need 130 gigafactories. 65 million cars produced in 2013 divide that with 500 thousand cars a gigafactory can produce per year = 130 - http: www.oica.net category production-statistics - http: www.statisticbrain.com cars-produced-in-the-world if we assume we build 1 gigafactory per year and since it would be in full production by 2020. 2020 + 130 years = 2150. now that s only for cars. if we assume a 20 year lifespan for each car. by 2150 there will be 1.14 billion electric cars on the road. which is almost equal to the number of cars on the roads today.

There is no Limit in size to such a factory The only reason for the limited size of the first Gigafactory is the market risk. Tesla has to show that they will have a sustainable demand for 500k per year + the potential for many more cars to build a second one. E.g. markte analysis shows that Tesla can Sell 3m Cars year world wide. That could mean that the second gigafactory that will be build in China along with a second production plant will have a potential output of 2-2.5m cars. So if the second Gigafactory is 5x bigger then the first. that would only require 26 factories in the world and nobody limits those factories to 1 per year. | PutinHuilo | 2014-09-16 18:42:08 | 8 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

As is making any kind of claims about what we ll be driving in 2150 .. other than it probably won t be powered by dino oil. Conventional closed-loop hybrids have been on available for about 15 years now. Approximately 3% of vehicles sold in the US today are closed-loop hybrids. Add another 1% for plug-in cars of every description. For vehicles where a hybrid option is available at relatively low cost instead of being a top-level trim-line the take rate is somewhat higher. Toyota Camry sold 44k hybrids out of 408k total sales in the US in 2013 or about 11%. Ford Fusion sold 37k hybrids and 6k plug-in hybrids out of 295k total sales in the US in 2013 or about 14% (12% conventional hybrid 2% plug-in hybrid). Keep in mind this is after about 15 years since hybrids were introduced in the US by 2025 plug-in hybrids will have been available for about the same period of time. Assume by 2025 we have the following mix of vehicle produced world-wide: * 65% conventional gas diesel vehicles * 20% closed-loop hybrids (no plug option) @ 1 kWh average * 10% plug-in hybrids @ 15 kWh average * 5% plug-ins @ 60 kWh average (some at 30-35 kWh some at 80-120 kWh) 100M vehicles year in this composition would require 470 GWh year in total packs or ~10 gigafactories. That s a LOT of batteries but there s time to ramp up to that level of output. And I think the mix above is still pretty aggressive. | protomech | 2014-09-16 22:41:04 | 8 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |
35e2me | what does it take to charge the powerwall | how many solar panels would you need to charge a powerwall? looking at panels they are rated at 100watts 200watts and alike. so lets say i have one 10kwh powerwall box and want solarpanels that are capable of charging that. how many panels would one need to effectively store enough power for one powerwall | XplodingLarsen | 2015-05-09 13:00:48 | 11 | cr3jj06 | It depends on how quickly you want to charge it. At 100W it would take more than 100 sunny hours to charge a 10kWh Powerwall but it would work as long as you never used the battery. Most home solar setups have at least a couple kW of panels. This would allow you to charge the battery pack in a single sunny afternoon. | jonjiv | 2015-05-09 13:22:08 | 6 | Tesla Solar Panel Decision |

I ve only got an S85 but it has the raw put-you-in-your-seat power at *any* speed.

ed5q07 | whine from front end ever since full charge | hey y all I took receipt of a 2015 S85D over Thanksgiving I haven t gotten 240v done in my garage yet. I ve been able to get a full charge in 120v in the meantime. 2-3 days ago as it approached 100% charge I noticed a soft but obvious high pitched tone coming from the front end of the vehicle. it is garaged in Atlanta temps have gotten down to low 30s but the garage is probably in the high 40s to 50s. the tone is present at all times: on off driving parked just used not used in ten hours etc. it started to occur about two days ago. it may have turned off once. I can hear it subtly from within the vehicle but better from outside-maybe it s coming from passenger side front? it is most noticeable when I get my ear down to the ground just behind the front wheels. today I set a limit to the charge (daily not up to trip) and it is probably 98% full still on trickle. curious if anyone has experienced this. I have checked the noise website and listenes d to everything none apply to this. it s not the milling sound. in a way it could sound like your neighbor a house away is vacuuming though I m not sure that this is a mechanical tone it could be electronic especially because it is unwavering and for so long. could it be that it is trying to discharge itself? UPDATE: I lowered the battery charge to the top end of daily and this morning I no longer hear the tone. I think that it could be related to the battery management system as some have stated. though we don t know the origin of this information it could be the case. I appreciate everyone s help as i glide hroigh this journey with yall | wbrettm | 2019-12-20 05:33:30 | 11 | fbfxzfu | It s the regen breaking adjusting for the limits of cold temps and a full charge (over 90%). | Tikistand | 2019-12-20 07:00:09 | 5 | Tesla Model 3 Audio Experience |
3heh6i | will car ownership decline significantly once cars have full autonomy? | tesla is probably working on their own version of uber which would be a a lot cheaper with a driverless car. do you think using this kind of service will eventually become cheaper than owning a car? | elaminthrow | 2015-08-18 03:31:12 | 16 | cu6tt47 | This is an interesting question and one that I ve spent a lot of time thinking about. I m not at all sure I m right about it but here s what I think: - Self-driving cars will lead to significantly decreased personal ownership of cars especially in cities. - Self-driving cars will not however lead to a decrease in the total number of miles driven by cars. If anything it will increase the total number of vehicle miles traveled because ordering a self-driving taxi will be very cheap. - Electric cars will be able to last much longer than traditional cars will have significantly lower fuel costs and will have noticeably lower maintenance costs. Those factors combined with the significantly decreased cost of a taxi that drives itself will combine to make travelling by self-driving electric cars extremely affordable. - This low cost per mile will create a huge surge in the total number of miles driven by cars. Many people who used to ride public transit will switch to self-driving electric taxis. Others who already are accustomed to using a car will use them slightly more because it will be cheaper. - Because self-driving cars can follow closer can communicate with one another don t get distracted don t crash as often and don t rubberneck road traffic will decrease significantly despite having more cars on the road. - The number of miles traveled by cars every year will be higher but the rate at which automobiles are sold will probably remain the same because electric cars last much longer. - Human driven vehicles will eventually be banned everywhere except the race track. | Quality_Bullshit | 2015-08-18 07:30:08 | 10 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

How would this effect the range on a Tesla? This is something that EVs and Hybrids are much better at than gas cars because they use regenerative braking to recharge the battery in stop-and-go conditions. It s why Priuses are rated for higher City MPG than Highway MPG. Now Teslas are still heavy cars so your usage especially with hills may still give a lower range than going 50mph steady on the highway but it shouldn t be nearly as much of a negative impact as with a gas car. | StetsonG | 2016-03-24 22:24:56 | 5 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |
