Lotta Tesla fanbois on these replies, unsurprising given where you are. :-D The car is not really known for its fit & finish. Build quality to comparably priced cars was pretty poor at one time. But that is something you sort of have to assume responsibility for when you get one. Not...

If you have a CarMax near you, you can also go there for the trade-in. They tend to be much higher than most dealerships as they do a far more thorough inspection. I've traded my last 3 cars in at CarMax and come out pretty satisfied. This includes prior to picking up the Tesla.

Yes inquiring minds want to know where you can insure a Tesla for $726 per year!

My understanding is the new cameras see a LOT better than the older ones. I consider this a downgrade. :-) I am not at all into my car monitoring my eyes in real time especially when as you pointed out it can be overly cautious to the point of absurdity at times. Also, I don't think your FSD...

This seems to confirm what I've always highly suspected which is hardware makes a dramatic difference. You are on HW4 on the 2023 and its vastly higher quality/compute power. This is possibly the most annoying part in that HW3 was sold as "good enough" but the reality is, it kinda isn't. HW4...

Frame damage and possibly battery damage given the rear shot. In no universe would I want that car back after being repaired. The damage report alone on the car's history would send your resale value plummeting.

That is so reasonable that if I can match that quote I would switch immediately. My premium with Tesla is all over the map and I utterly -hate- the car "judging" my driving, often poorly, when it does not understand every situation I encounter on a daily basis. I have gotten hard braking...

Quick follow up question. As you know the Battery and Drive Unit have much longer warranties than the rest of the car. Do you all offer something that covers the other things but NOT the Battery and DU? Reason being, if I have let's say a few years left on that warranty it doesn't make a great...

Sorry to resurrect this dated thread but something interests me in this post. In the bolded text above you are describing several items that are NOT part of the drive train or battery system but you are saying X-Care covered these? X-Care does not offer coverage for anything other than the...

For the most part. Only using the app to buy a car was not always ideal and the payment required was not intuitive. It appeared I would have to pay the entire balance before taking delivery which is insane to me. Once I finally got a sales rep on the phone he explained that you just pay the...

Off completely almost always. It is actually fine on highways/freeways but I'm not lazy enough to not be able to hit the turn signal to let the car change lanes with EAP. I did a 3,000 mile road trip across the US this summer and it didn't make the cut, especially in city traffic or urban areas...

It is largely a party trick, and a dangerous one at that. I did a 3,000 mile road trip this summer and "tested" it under all manner of scenarios and conditions. There are many many posts here with extensive and detailed feedback but it can be easily summarized. Under "optimal" conditions it...

Same thing here. I am very sorry I updated. The release notes sounded very promising but the car is straight up dangerous now. Massive phantom breaking on open highway at 65-80 mph is quite frequent now. I am also driving on 3 lane highways that are 60 mph but have traffic lights. It slows down...

Definitely less on newest version, though I do agree that traffic conditions appear to play a factor. I almost thought it wasn't working when I was driving at speed on a 6 lane divided highway in light traffic it was so infrequent. But on the drive back there was more chaos on the road in the...

Don't take this the wrong way, but unless you are going to be using this car on the track or for similar purpose, does shaving that .7 seconds really matter that much, especially when you are talking about a 3 second car already? LOL! In any practical real world setting you are going to smoke...
