If Morgan Stanley is right, I won't get my CT until after the patent expires (2036)

Elon is more of a 'spirit of the law' kind of guy. He also doesn't like to wait for stupid approvals. I just hope it doesn't prevent the CT from being sold in Canada!

Obviously a bigger battery takes longer to charge. But I'm talking about super chargers here, not destination charging. Big battery means you are more likely to make your trip WITHOUT using a super charger. If range was 1 mile, you'd need a charger on every corner. If range was 1000 miles...

Good plan. In my area Teslas are still very rare and super chargers are almost always empty.

Wow... Yeah no thanks. Its all fine and good to make a bunch of big promises about delivering fancy new EVs, but Tesla are the only ones who understood the charging problem early on. I think busy chargers is also an indication that batteries need to be bigger. I look forward to the day...

If its totally passive and Tesla has worked out how to use it so that I don't have to think about it much, then I'm on board!

I am not sold on rear steering... Seems like something I would never use except as a party trick. I hope they don't increase the price. A deployable drone would be amazing...

Don't underestimate the need for a mature charging network. Tesla stands alone in this critical feature. Have a look at charger reviews from the competition - they generally suck.

Just go buy a cheap beater to hold you over. Stay focused on what you really want. The Y is a distraction.

*UPDATE* I called my local Tesla shop and spoke with a sales associate. I was told that Tesla does not prevent Canadians from going to the USA to purchase. He insisted it was not a problem, there would be no issues from Tesla if I wanted to do this. He did suggest that after importing I...

610 mile range confirmed because reasons.

400,000 in line! man you're lucky... I waited a whole 4 weeks before pre-ordering, so I'm 546,000! Lol

I don't know why anyone would buy a non-Tesla EV. Nobody else has a track record for battery longevity. When the battery dies the vehicle is trash. Imagine buying a vehicle that is only good for 5 years due to battery degradation/faults. Tasla has a strong track record, but you can still...

I hope the armor glass is more resistant to abrasion and cracks, but even if it isn't I'll be satisfied knowing I have a more robust window to deflect hard objects. Two stories to drive the point home: First story - Several years ago near my home town, a piece of a truck's brake broke off on...

Well that settles it... I'm not leaving the house until my CT arrives.

I'm familiar with construction and fully realize the monumental task of building this factory. I chose to stay positive and believe they will start pumping out a few CTs by October/November.

Its a sad day in CT news when this is what we must resort to talking about...

Lol that is pretty much how I justify it in my mind. I'm actually hoping the trimotor will include a few other luxuries as well, such as rear LCD for the kids.

A big battery is mandatory for towing. Its also madatory for life in Canada where distances are vast, charging network is limited, and cold weather kills range. I wish Tesla would offer the big battery on dual or single motor variants. I don't need a Plaid Mode CT, but I do need a big battery.

So people trade in their Fiat 500e for a gas vehicle. What a shocker!
