I am starting to like that blue camo wrap.
I see they have a steering wheel instead of a yoke.
The side mirrors look like they are turned in like other tesla models.
I am surprised no one mentioned Matt Pocius,
He is a young guy from Vancouver, and has a daily post mostly about tesla investing but he does a good job of surveying the news and X for updates on Tesla.
I stopped watching the tesla economist when he paniced and sold all his stock when tesla...

according to CNBC it is real- what is your source of info?
I own a M3 and was a beta for starlink so I know that spaceX has the technology to build a satellite phone.
I also realize that there was a lot of click-bait about a tesla phone in the past, but with Nio doing it, it could be a large source of income for spaceX so they can go to the moon and...
Yeah I am pretty hesitant to buy an EV from Ford or GM. I put a deposit on the silverado EV because I was getting frustrated with the CT wait. As I am a second day reservation holder, I am hoping to get my CT in the latter part of next year which will probably be about the same time the...
There is a young service tech who has been to my place to service my M3 a couple of times. He was formerly an employee of one of the OEM's and switched to tesla because he didn't see a future with the OEMs.
As a tesla share holder I asked him about his ownership of tesla shares. He told me...
I received this email from Ford suggesting that they have dropped the prices on all Lightning trims.
To be honest, with all the options available it is hard to figure out what the final price will be and when it will be delivered.
As I am a second day reservation holder, I think I will wait a...
My 2018 M3 was sold to me new for 66 K CAD plus 13% GST = 74 K CAD, which I paid for with a certified cheque.
But in 2018, our provincial government in Ontario was offering a $14 K CAD grant which the newly elected conservatives cancelled. It took 6 months but I finally got the grant.
Also, I...
Agreed. When I got my early M3 in 2018 (28 k made), there were no choices - just RWD long range. IMO there will be at most two options 2 motor or 3 motor or more likely just one option.
I had a 2010 golf diesel wagon with the top trim and I really liked that car. I thought it was probably the nicest car I would ever own and bought it for the mileage and because it was a "clean" diesel.
Well they lied about that and subsequently bought it back from me in 2017 with 250 k...
so if the 2nd generation 4680 will be in the CT, that would confirm that the first release CT will probably be the 2-motor version with at most 350 mil range and 10 k towing capacity vs the 500 mi CT which will need G3 4680 or higher.
Although this is a bit disappointing, I will take...
it goes to show that it is not the engineering and design that is going to kill the OEM's but rather the bureaucracy and culture that stifles innovation and change.
glad to see they ditched the hub caps- those things are dangerous. I have two sets (winter and summer) of the standard steel rims on my M3 and use the areo wheel covers in the winter and the hub covers in the summer- it took them a couple of years to come up with them.
Also glad to see that...
I got the 28 K model 3 in June of 2018, was a second day reservation holder on April 1, 2016 and they first started deliveries in July of 2017.
Not too bad considering production hell of the M3, hopefully the CT will be better.
I got the 28 k model 3 in June of 2018 and placed an order on the...
I can see using this in an arid environment like california or arizona, but here were we get lots of rain in the spring and fall (and summer) not to mention all the snow and ice in the winter, this thing makes me nervous.
Another concern is driving over that connecting cord has got to...
