He did, it still has to be charged you retard. I'm going out on a limb here and saying 99.999% of the 'Fire doesn't work in Silicon Valley, don't drive battery powered cars and don't have plugins at work for said battery powered cars that they don't own. Reads like a green article for metrosexuals living in a 500sq ft apartment that only eat tofu.

You just don't get it. I take five gallons of gasoline from my employer every day. I use that gasoline to run my generator. Lower energy bill for me = saving energy. It's simple. Gibson gets it. You don't. Travis

Part of Tesla's problem is that they can't sell in every state. They sell direct, without dealers. You order the car direct from the factory. Many states kiss the backsides of the dealers and have passed laws prevent direct sales of cars, only allowing them to be sold through dealers. I really don't think that's legal because it interferes with interstate commerce but at this time that's the case. Here's a map of where they can be sold: ![[Linked Image]](http://imgick.mlive.com/home/mlive-media/width620/img/auto_impact/photo/16180722-mmmain.png)

If people start charging batteries at night the night demand will go up and those rates will increase. These things would help make solar work better. If solar gets too big, the power companies overhead will go up as their volume goes down, rates will either go up or you will see a minimum monthly bill. The only real change this could cause would be to close some power plants

What if I forgo free power from my employee and opt for 5 pounds of peperoni sticks and a case of Bud a week?

The Map you posted is already out of date. I live in Alabama and there is a new Tesla free charging station at the mall 2 miles from my house. Their cars can do 140 mph and drive for about 3 hours 34 minutes at 70 mph. The fast charging stations can completely charge your car in 70 minutes (time to eat a meal between charges). By the end of this year one could travel nationwide with his free charging stations scattered along the interstate system.
If you bought one of his cars and kept it for 10 years, it would be slightly cheaper than buying a 40mpg car and paying for gasoline for 10 years.

This certainly bears watching.
For a hunting camp, alone, this concept is a game-changer.
Different 'camp' from what I've been in!

With that kind of battery, you can charge the battery with solar, or use grid power in the middle of the night when electricity prices are lowest. This could massively reduce everyone's electricity bills. It also means we're not far off of everyone actually being off the grid if they so desire.

You haven't the first clue.
Solar ain't much to brag about everywhere. So we are going to have solar farms/electric plugs in EVERYWHERE for these [bleep] things?
Following Dixie's math, a person will be having 7 meals a day whilst the car is charging in pickle park.
Here's another hint, if everyone has the George Jetson plugged in at night, you figure power will then be cheaper at night?
Also, power companies are gonna get their money. Congrats, the guy that doesn't want to buy your F A G car has to pay $232 a KW because of you.

Which is exactly what 1minute said. It still needs to be charged. I know, I know. I'm a mental midget. Laughin'... Travis
