Tesla is scoring too many blowout sales milestones. It needs to cool it.

Before jumping into the latest number-crunching fun, heres a quick recap of some notable sales milestones Tesla just achieved in case you missed them:

The Tesla Model 3 is now the 4th best selling car in the USA.
Tesla is now the #1 top selling luxury vehicle brand in the USA.
Tesla has had 25,913% sales growth in 6 years, from 321 sales in Q3 2012 to 83,500 sales in Q3 2018.
Tesla more than doubled its previous quarterly delivery record in Q3.
The Tesla Model 3 is the #1 highest grossing car (in terms of monthly revenue) in the USA.
The Tesla Model 3 is the #1 top selling American car in the USA.
Phew.

But thats just the beginning.

I reported at the end of July that Tesla production seemed to be passing Jaguar production (worldwide), and I reported earlier in July that Tesla may overtake Porsche (worldwide).

I just calculated the 3rd quarter totals for these companies* and Tesla beat both Jaguar and Porsche. In fact, despite the other brands seeing modest growth, Tesla crushed them.

Naturally, the most important thing is that every single Tesla sale is an electric car sale, which means less pollution, less global warming, and less noise.

Teslas sales growth is driven by the Model 3, which is somehow competing with cars half or a third of its price for the top selling car title in the United States. It seems that Tesla just produced the 100,000th Model 3 in the past week or so. Both Bloombergs production tracker and Teslikes production tracker went passed the 100,000 car milestone this week. How long till the next 100,000 Model 3s are out the door and in customers hands?

I'm strongly considering dropping $5,000 as a down payment on a Model 3 this weekend before the $7,500 rebate goes away.

We have Tesla cars in Australia, and yes, they are super expensive, and yes, we do have to wait up to a year for delivery.

Time is a funny thing. There is always too much of it, except when you need it the most. Then there is never enough.

Saw a Tesla in a car park a few weeks back. It was muddy as hell. If you go out of your way to buy that kind of car, wouldn't you keep it clean?
