Here’s the news of the day:
“Working with some of the largest and most respected banks in the country, Tesla has been able to create a financing product that combines the surety and comfort of ownership with all the advantages of a traditional lease.
US Bank and Wells Fargo will provide 10% down financing assuming a good credit rating, and the down payment is covered or more than covered by US Federal and state tax credits ranging from $7,500 to $15,000. New Jersey, Washington and DC also have no sales tax for electric vehicles. These advantages are not available when leasing.
After 36 months, you have the right, but not the obligation to sell your Model S to Tesla for the same residual value percentage as the iconic Mercedes S Class, one of the finest premium sedans in the world, made by Daimler (also a Tesla partner and investor).
Not only is Tesla guaranteeing that resale value, but Tesla CEO Elon Musk is personally standing behind that guarantee to give customers absolute peace of mind about the value of the asset they are purchasing.
We also encourage you to think about Model S ownership in terms of true out of pocket cost. When considering the savings from using electricity instead of gasoline, depreciation benefits, and other factors, buyers will save hundreds of dollars per month compared to owning a gasoline powered car.”
The problem with this, or rather, one of the problems with this, is that Mercedes Benz S-Class cars have horrible resale value.
Just horrible!
Check it.
So if Elon Musk really wants to put his money where his mouth is, why doesn’t he use cars more desirable and practical for the residual value percentage guarantee?
How about the Nissan Versa or Honda Fit?
Just askin’.

This (about 20 sellers all in a row) is the most I’ve seen all in one place at one time.
The SFPD knows all about this – sometimes they care, but most of the time they don’t.
And best of all, after you purchase a bunch of food, you can go across the street to buy a stolen iPhone.
Remember, “Mayor Ed Lee Get’s It Done!”
“Run Ed Run!”

But there are no complaints, unlike the recent situation in Virginia at the Fed Bank there.

Here’s the scene from yesterday AM at the corner of McAllister and Market and Jones in the Tenderloinish Civic Center Twitterloin area.
The woman involved were trying to sell the stuff they had gotten from a program what just gives it away with just one condition, can you guess? The condition is that you DON”T GO TO MID-MARKET AND SELL THIS FOOD ON THE SIDEWALK RIGHT NEXT TO THE THUGS SELLING STOLEN iPHONES.
Anyway, this one was a little different. Instead of just kicking the women off the corner, our SFPD (you see them all – there’s a bunch in there) actually took their stuff. And word on the street is that the cops didn’t want to bust them, in part, over “immigration issues.”

That’s all I know.

Coincidentally, 7th and Market is the best place in the western United States to buy a stolen Apple iPhone.
Anyway, a few days ago, this crew was selling their black market goods on the north side of Market Street. But the SFPD took care of that, so now you need to travel to the south side of the intersection to obtain your Corn Flakes and Crispy Hexagons.
Enjoy.
Reverse Angle:
On it goes in Mayor Ed Lee’s new and improved Mid Market Twitterloin.

Here are about ten sellers in a row this morning on the corner of 7th and Market in the heart of the corrupt Twitterloin.
Cream cheese was the order of the day:

Appears as if San Francisco’s seniors have more than enough food, but not enough cold hard cash.
I inquired about Crispy Hexagons, but there was no reply.
No reply at all.

[UPDATE: Andrea Koskey has more deets on this collision, as does RedditSF - it has a shot from just afterwards. ]
The driver of this car was taking Oak to get back to the Peninsula this afternoon but she ended up flipping her Honda Civic just before Divisadero.
See?

So as traffic backed up for miles along Oak, the SFPD began its investigation:
The Honda Shadow:
San Francisco’s “Comeback Neighborhood of the Year” is the host of this scene, betwixt abandoned sidewalk sofas and the LaunderLand:
Now I’ll tell you, we were supposed to get a freeway to link up the terminuseses of 101 and 280 with the Golden Gate Bridge, but what we got instead was Fell and Oak with three or four one-way lanes each way timed for 35 MPH. But these days, for various reasons, the Fell/Oak twins don’t play the substitute freeway role as well.
Recently, this intersection at Divis. has become a bottleneck owing to the inefficient* left arrow phase for southbound traffic on Divisadero to allow drivers to get on eastbound Oak. I’m not sure, but this configuration might have confused or upset the Civic driver, who was driving “all squirrelly” near Broderick shortly before this accident.
LBCOT
*Hey, how about a big fat “NO LEFT TURN” sign for southbound drivers on Divisadero? This intersection wasn’t made “for the neighbors,” so there’s no reason for the people who live in this area to have more of a say than those poor, wretched souls who live way out there in the West Bay, you know, the Sunset and the Richmond. This new left turn phase, like the one at Octavia for inbound Market Street drivers, appears to be a sop for DivCo / NoPA / EaPA locals…
