Thank you for this very interesting article! It's very interesting for us and our customers, accustomed as we are to consumer auto loans in the $10-$25K range, to think about "car loans" of $1.84 billion!

What surprises me though is that there isn't as much popular support/buzz around this (as you seem to indicate at the end of the post). I can corroborate that two of my colleagues who have been big fans of Tesla from day one did not even know about the program.

In any case, thanks for getting the news out there on this!
