ugg boots (sometimes referred to as uggs or ug boots) are a

style of sheepskin boot, with wool as the inner lining and a tanned outer surface worn by both

men and women.ugg boots uk often have a synthetic sole,

although this is not universal. Uggs have been identified as a fashion trend for men and women

since the early 2000s. In late 2008, classic ugg boots grew

again in popularity with men as male celebrities were seen in them.

And apparently someone already was able to pick one up, these pictures were taken on the street in Santa Monica:

The Telsa won’t need oil changes and tune ups. That would save money. The Telsa won’t be around for long though. The oil industry will kill the Telsa car asap.

Once the price is down to $10K, I’ll be able to get one. Most cars, especially new ones, that come out first are always at the high price mark. But give it awhile, and it will widdle down in price.

I wonder if they have plans for roll out roll in battery packs instead of a 3 1/2 hr wait and does the performance decrease as the batteries run down?

The deal breaks down to be, if you assume you’re driving a 30mpg sedan, at gas being $3.5 a gallon, after 100,000 miles you’ve spent about $12,000 dollars on fuel. (Plus related costs.) For the Tesla you would have spent about $2000 on electricity, it doesn’t break down that cleanly, because batteries don’t just “die” they wear out. After 100000 miles you’ll probably be getting about 1/2 the range (If thats how they estimate the useful life.), if that’s good enough you can keep on using them for longer. Either way, in the time it takes to drive 100,000 miles, you better hope that the replacement battery pack is about 10k to come out even. You can sway this either way by getting to technical, as electrics are cheaper to maintain in other ways etc…

35 mpg @ $4.00 per gallon = $0.11 per mile

From the Tesla Motors website:
——————————
Electrical Cost to Charge the Batteries

With your electrical company’s incentive pricing factored in, it will cost you roughly 1 cent per mile to drive the Tesla Roadster.** But the incentives don’t stop there. Depending on where you live, other bonuses may include:

* Single-occupancy access to all carpool lanes
* Income tax credit (awaiting new legislation)
* A luxury car that’s fully exempt from the luxury car tax
* Free parking at charging stations at LAX
* No parking meter fees in an increasing number of major metropolitan areas

OK, the battery has to be recharged after 225 miles, Cool, but how much does it cost in energy to recharge it, or how does it compare to a car that gets 35 miles per gallon @ $4.00 per gallon? While we’re at it, after a 100,000 miles of battery life, how much does it cost to pop in a new 1,000 pound baby? Can’t afford it anyway, just curious.

Did anyone see the Tesla in Iron Man? It was in Johna Starks garage when he was building the suit. I thought that was cool!

More power to them, but how are they on track to produce 2,000 cars this year?

If they produce 20 cars/wk for the next 6mos, that’s about 520 cars. They would have to have one heck of a December to hit 2,000…
