You've yet to see an X because they aren't out yet. Still technically a prototype. Probably not on sale until 2015. My mom has a deposit down for one and I couldn't be happier. The test drive we did at TMR sold her even though only my dad and I got behind the steering wheel to drive. Since then, she's been on 2-3 test drives in GA and SC.Kali Durga wrote:You should visit DC, there are three dealerships in the area, one of which has a Tesla charging station in the parking garage of the nearby shopping mall, which gave me a chance to peek inside one. I saw a couple of them on a regular basis last year (a green, a black, and a dark blue), then none for months, then in the last week I've seen two (a grey and the red one today). All model S, I've yet to see an X.

I need to pretend I'm rich someday and take one for a test drive. Wanna feel that regenerative breaking system.

Re: Random Third Man Discussions
Its not the regenerative braking you want to feel, it the instant speed. Even if you aren't someone that drives fast, the feeling you get to push the accelerator down is amazing.Kali Durga wrote:I need to pretend I'm rich someday and take one for a test drive.

No need to be rich either. Tesla stores seem to be totally cool with letting people drive it because they are intrigued by it. Helps get the good word out about them and shows people what electric vehicles can do. After the Model X (a few years after) they are planning on making a mass produced, much cheaper electric vehicle.

I would hope they're planning a lower-priced model. Seems like something Tesla would have wanted the masses to have access to.

Ruby from the Peacocks featured on this Ben Folds track that was written for a Community episode the other week. I didn't spot it at the time. It's pretty funny.

Um, is he talking about the Spinerette? Because I have the WS Crosley and it kinda sounds like crap.

Re: Random Third Man Discussions
I don't know what's more frustrating....
That people called this bullying (sounds like every other X factor/ American idol judge).
Or that people don't know there is different celebrities / looks in other countries.

Re: Random Third Man Discussions
Based on what's happening on TMR's Twitter feed this afternoon, either someone at TMR is very, very bored, or Jack's kids got ahold of the account password, or there's some sort of announcement pertaining to Jack Black coming soon. Didn't Swank say in a recent Vault chat that a new Green Series was coming soon?

I think they were just trying to figure out how to loose followers.

Made me really, really glad that I check Twitter on a computer and not on a phone.
