    TSLA stock price discussion thread

    I can't afford the car, but I am glad I bought the stock when it first went public. With the additional offering I would reccomend another invest and hold strategy to all interested parties. It may seem high right now, but Apple stock seemed high at one point too. If you have twenty years to...

    low battery warning x3 update 5/21/13

    You should keep your gasoline reciepts, and when you pick up the Leaf, hand copies of them to the dealer. Add a carbon tax if you want to get creative.

    Drive On: Plug-in car sales hit 100,000 ... Say What???

    Add the number of motorcycles that are all electric. MY 2012 Zero is about 200 (Mine is #199). MY 2013 will easily double or triple that. These bikes are fast, fun, and economical. If you ride, take one for a test drive, you will be impressed.

    Charging in Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, CA

    The LaCanada High school now has a Chargepoint station in its parking lot, .25 cents a KWH. This is just off the 210, but there is a gate so it likely is not always available.

    Help...gas compared to electric should I purchase?

    Have you looked at a Zero electric motorcycle? If that is an option, it will be the most fun and least expensive option. I also think that you are one of the many people that bought a Volt, fearing the range issue. After a year you now realize the Leaf has enough range and you can dump the...

    Does the 10th bar range capacity change over time?

    Question: If you charge to 100% and then drive until the 12th and 11th bars are no longer lit, how far can you go on the tenth bar? With 24K miles you are likely seeing some degradation of the battery, and you may also be coming close to losing a capacity bar. Do not be alarmed. I have found...

    2016 Leaf: How many kWh needed, and at what price?

    In three years it may no longer be a question. Tesla may have a way to go 1000 miles (or more) with a disposable/swappable hybrid battery system in an afforcdable sedan by then, and Nissan and the others should be worried. A bigger battery means more weight, and that means most of the time you...

    Not driving Leaf for several months

    Tony, of all the people to start throwing names like nutty around, you should not be one of them. Nutty is owning two leafs and still obsessing about them after getting rid of them. Does that sound normal to you? You attacked me, I did not attack you. You say I am wrong, and continue to do...

    Not driving Leaf for several months

    Do you know what cover your ass is? Still not bad info. In this OP situation we have a heat element, so the CS opted to give a different view.

    Cruise Control under 45mph drain on battery?

    An efficient speed is relative. If you have 3 minutes to get to the hospital, the efficient speed is much higher than if you are heading to the ex wife's step son's 15th birthday party. I am not being stubborn, I am defending my assertion that Nissan made that statement, and I have found it...

    Not driving Leaf for several months

    The CS guy told you what will keep Nissan from being responsible. He warned you that it could brick. He doesn't know if you are going to intentionally brick and then sue, so he can't tell you anything else. It wasn't bad info, it just might not be what you wanted to hear. I would do option...
