The Tesla assembly factory for the cars is now on the other side of the bay Nayther, they took the old GM Fremont plant which for about 25 years was the NUMMI plant, a GM Toyota joint venture. I think they used to build Tacoma's there also.

My BIL is doing Thermal Imaging for electrical issues in the plant, they do a huge amount of stuff in house and still are only using about half the floor space.

The cars are really cool up close, all over the place up here.

I'm not real familiar with the bay area, swagged the Palo Alto locale. I did know it was the old Toyota plant though. Yes they are cool cars, great reviews and I guess they really perform well. My contact in Hawthorne got a chance to drive the original roadster and he said its a rocket ship.

We saw these at the Pomona RV show. Very impressive units with all the bells and whistles. Their "regular" 5ers were very posh, even had a dishwasher which go my DW's attention. I believe they also had front living room models.

That "different spelling" is the difference between a lawsuit and Peace on Earth....no such difference here. I s'pose this U.S. made "Tesla" RV is getting away with it because the car is from a different Country.

Better get your facts straight. Tesla Motors headquarters is in Palo Alto, CA and that's where the cars are made. Their R&D dept. is in Hawthorne, CA. All American made. I should know, I air conditioned the old airplane hanger they're now using in Hawthorne. I've seen and stood next to the clay models of the current model S, the future coupe, the future SUV.

Stupid money.

We were looking at a $65K price without a trade (we would sell our current rig ourselves)

I am curious as to the fit, finish,and durability of these rigs.

We have also talked about a used class A and enclosed, so still figuring it out.

We have gone from 6 or 7 people and 6 or 7 quads to 3 or 4 people with quads, so it would be nice to have something that is not so big.

However, our trailer is so roomy, comfortable, and familiar to us that we are not jumping to change - we are taking our time deciding what we really want.

We also like the fact that right now, everything is paid for....

Thank you for the input.

I would agree with you on the Voltage being over $100k. But I believe a majority of the other major brands are priced MSRP below the 100k level.

Most fiver Toy haulers have a MSRP of over $100k, that is the norm nowadays. Mostly be paying between $65k and $80k for those units that have a $100k MSRP.

Eeee--Gads! I just did a quick Internet search on "Tesla 3212". The first hit had that camper at $109,606. The second hit was $91.404. Looks like there are two slightly different models! I say, Eeee-Gads! For that price it better be darn well made! And "no!" This was not the car either!

I noticed the same thing. Even at 30% off I was not overly impressed with the pictures I saw. Perhaps in person its a different story. If you are willing to spend 109K then I think you have quite a few options to look at.

...but you should be able to get 30% off ha ha :B

Maybe there's a real Tesla back there in the "toyhauler" part of the rig! ;)
