Tesla Model S priced just under $50K, rest of car still shrouded in mystery {Engadget}
Mar 24th 2009 1:30PM As an owner of a Tesla Roadster I've seen the Model S and purchased two of them already! One is for my wife and the other I'm going to give away on Mahalo.com (no idea how yet).
This is the most beautiful sedan ever made I think.... plus it runs on frickin' batteries people... come on! :-)

Feb 25th 2009 1:23PM Exactly. It's over designed and not within reach of normal folks. 40-50k Tesla Model S is going to be the big win IMO. I bought two, one for my wife and one to give away on Mahalo Answers (yes, that's a plug!).

Feb 25th 2009 1:22PM I'm going to wait before buying one of these. I'd like to see Fisker produces a couple of dozen prototypes and crash them into some walls first. I like being the first person to buy a new car, but I don't like the idea of being a crash-test dummy.
Also, why are they building this as a hybrid? Hybrids burn oil and it becomes very clear when you own a Tesla Roadster for a couple of months that you don't need a gas burning car for 99.99% of your trips. I've had exactly one trip in six months that required burning oil (the ten hour trip from Los Agneles to park City Utah). For that I took my truck (which I needed to do anyway because I had two dogs and my wife's 18 bags... RIM SHOT!).
I'm not sure I like the design so much.
All the being said, I hope they make it because producing a 100mpg car is second only to producing a pure electric vehicle in demonstrating how horribly incompetent American car makers are.
VIDEO: Jezza and the Stig take on the Tesla Roadster, for 55 miles! {Autoblog}
Dec 15th 2008 8:56PM I get 120-180 miles driving aggressive--but not absurd like they did. That's on an 80% charge, so add 20% to that.
Clearly batteries are not going to work right now if you want to drive at 120 MPH for a sustained period of time. If you want top speed for a sustained period buy a Corvette/Ferrari/Lambo.
Google will have 90% search market share in the US one year from now {The Jason Calacanis Weblog}
Mar 6th 2008 12:09PM Michael: If Mahalo has 10M unique visitors by the end of the year I would be very, very, very, very, very happy. 7m would be good, 10m would be amazing. however, it's a looooong slow road we're on, and I don't see us as displacing google at all.
If we can take a fraction of point from Ask, AOL, Yahoo, MSN, and Google and have 1% marketshare in the next two years that would an amazing business given our controlled costs.

Putting Netscape out of its misery {The Brian Alvey Weblog}
Dec 30th 2007 10:09PM hey, I fought the good fight for a long time... if they had kept the strategy going they would own a thriving social news site challenged only by digg. With digg going for $200-300M possibly that would be a fairly cool thing to own.
Ahh.... well. Time to move on.
RCRDLBL, Mahalo, and CrowdFusion FTW!!!
