My thoughts are similar. Any power-train issues should be corrected within the warranty period and hopefully it can make it another 7 years after that! I am a 15 year car person apparently! I think in the coming years there should be no shortage of salvage parts with the number of cars planned...

Does anyone have an opinion about how long term maintenance could be after the warranties expire?

Found this post when searching for information on one pedal driving. It IS difficult to find relevant information from old threads. Maybe I am bad at using "search"? Can anyone point me to some good threads about one pedal driving for the Model 3? Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your experience. I've only heard good things about one pedal driving but it's not a feature I've given much thought. It seems too different from my other cars. Is it really that much better? How long do you think it takes to adapt?

I thought Gavyne was exaggerating! Seems not... :)

Thanks again everyone for sharing your experiences.

That's a good suggestion. I don't expect special accommodations though, as they don't have a demand problem!

Yes. I think I actually first read about that from a previous post you made! I anticipate 7500+2500+1000 which is 11000 in total tax credits. There's also the 500 for a charger installation (local credit for REU only), I haven't factored that into the lifetime cost yet. Thanks for making...

Total cost for me after all credits will be about $50,000. My assumption is that in 15 years it will be worth $10,000. So $40,000 spread over 15 years, or $2667 a year and $2839.5 with electricity added. I expect at least $980 a year in fuel savings. My guess is something equivalent to my...

I requested a test drive on the website, the automated response said that test rides were not yet available for my area and that they would update me when they are. Haven't been contacted yet. I didn't call and talk to anyone, not sure who I would call!

Thanks Derek. Did you do a total cost of ownership comparison between the Civic and Model 3? I am not sure how to think about the maintenance on the 3. I am assuming that any issues should be under warranty in the beginning and it should be pretty solid after that. At fault repairs should be...

Hi Az_Rael. I was doing a forum search for "Honda Accord" and saw your old post. I will be coming from a 2003 Accord, and I have been a 5000 miles a year driver so... I think I am around 75k miles now. Has your Model 3 met your reliability expectations? ;)

Good to know. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! How does it compare for night driving? I think the headlights on my Accord are terrible, and there are reflections from other lights off the interior windshield and cabin.

What was the biggest change for you?
