Haha! Well played, Carl. I wonder how much of our dues money is spent grooming that ALPAstache each month.

REALLY?????? $1200/mo for a car???? REALLY? Pick his color???? I'm voting this guy out for this alone. How about the next guy that wants this job say he'll stay in an apt, drive a rental when in town and expense out his reasonable food or give him a perdiem? ***? UNREAL!!!

Tesla Roadster
I can see it now, ALPA needs to present a green front. We need to increase the cost to $1658 per month. Our leader can only drive the latest American made green car:
Tesla announces Roadster leases for $1,658/month, can be delivered "within days"
Instead of paying $109,000+ for a Tesla Roadster, how does $1,658 a month sound?
That's the cost for Tesla's new 36-month leasing option for the Roadster or the Roadster Sport, but the devil is in the details. Without calculating in tax or license or registration or anything like that, those monthly payments mean lessees will pay $58,030 over three years plus $12,453 due at signing (which covers the first month, a $9,900 down payment, and the $895 acquisition fee) for a total of $70,483. After the three years, you can pay a $350 fee plus "any excess wear and use as set forth in the lease agreement and excess mileage charges of $0.25 per mile for miles driven in excess of 30,000 miles over the life of the lease" and walk away (what?!) or chose the purchase option, about which Tesla hasn't given details.
With Roadster production catching up with purchase orders, there is very little wait time for anyone who wants to get behind the wheel of a Roadster today. Tesla says that its stores have "a limited selection of Roadsters available now so you can drive one home after finalizing your lease" and that they can deliver one "within days" even if you don't live close to a store.

He'd have to pry an extra $200/month out of his personal wallet.. Hey.. the man's gotta eat.
