The many people you mention apparently don't purchase EVs either because the sales numbers shows that not only is the M3 untouchable at $35k, it's untouchable even when it's more expensive. Monthly Plug-In EV Sales Scorecard

Very good point. That's why I hate dealerships.

I'm in the 2nd least screwed group which is the early EAP adopter. I've had my car since June 2018, so I have been able to use the features for about 8 months. Is that 8 month worth of using EAP worth $2k? I'm not sure, but with technology in general, prices fluctuate rapidly. So it's all part...

Also good luck driving that before 2020.

I'm one of those who purchased EAP pre-delivery for $5k. I could have spend an additional $3k for FSD pre-delivery or $4k post-delivery. So I guess Tesla is trying to say that now I only have to pay $2k which is less and a good deal to me. It sort of makes sense. However, I would like Elon Tusk...

So for those of us who paid for EAP we need to pay an additional $2k to keep NoA, summon, and autopark?

Not sure what you mean by "significant population", but the Model 3 has outsold all of the vehicles you mentioned combined and that's before the base model was even released.

I agree that looks matter and is very subjective, but the Model 3 looks way better than anything at its price point.

https://electrek.co/2019/03/01/the-nissan-leaf-plus-starts-at-36550/ The Leaf Plus starts at $36,550 if this article is to be believed.

And they say AP is bad at staying between the lines.

Some people also prefer cars with engines. Different strokes for different folks.

This is a very good point. Chevy has already said they are not profitable selling the Bolt. I wonder if Nissan makes a profit on the Leaf.

I didn't have to pay extra for it. Tesla did that for free.

Can't they just drive the car to my house like Tesla did?

Sounds like a pain. Can't I just order it online?

I'm not great at parking in reverse, so it's actually faster than me. Sometimes I would need to readjust to be in the middle of the spot and that makes me feel like a fool. LOL

I use the auto parking feature all the time. The biggest problem is just getting the car to recognize the spot. I have found success by driving very slow and driving a good distance pass the spot.

I completely agree. As much as I would like the feature, the potential liability for Tesla is so high, I don't see how they could release it.

According to Volvo, the 2020 Polestar 2. LOL

The owner of the car will definitely be liable. Whether or not Tesla is also liable is the real question.

As someone who bought the car sight unseen I would have to disagree.

I want one, but they don't offer it in Metallic Silver. :(

Is that available for purchase now?

I sent in my letter on 1/3, they supposedly processed it on 2/8, but I didn't get the stickers until 2/28. Apparently it took 20 days for the letter to get to me.

I couldn't agree more with you. I hope Elon Tusk agrees.

I'm so glad I purchased mine when the only option was the first production build. With the current options I would have the hardest time deciding what I can and can't live without.

Is there one you could get right now for $35k? I don't believe any of them are even available for purchase in the US .

For the people who purchase the car with free supercharging, it is free for them forever.

Regarding the 325 mile range, is there any difference in the new LR that's being produced or are they just finally using the real numbers of the EPA test results?

You were right.

Okay now that the $35k version of the Model 3 is available. Why would someone wait till 2020 and get the Polestar 2 instead of buying a Model 3 today?

I prefer the landscape orientation of the screen in the Model 3. The gearshift being in the center instead of a stock just takes away storage space. Overall it does look better. But functionally, I prefer the Model 3 interior.

I can see that. I was different though. I only considered Tesla because they are the only company that focuses on EVs.

California is a country now? Lol

That's a fair point, but my question is just comparing car to car and not Volvo to Tesla as companies.

The headrest is a good point. Literally every other non-Tesla car I've been in has an adjustable headrest. I've never known anyone who had a Volvo. I'm not a tall person so the thigh cushion wouldn't do much for me.

I use an android phone. Works great for me. I don't have any phone as a key issue. Assuming the fed doesn't take away the credit that's true. But by 2020, the Model 3 would have been out for almost 3 years. The base model 3 is likely to be available too. I'm not hating on the car, but...

I wonder if information from online chat is reliable.

The interior reminds me a lot of the Model 3. Lack of buttons and a floating tablet are couple of examples.

The Polestar 2 is not a bad car, but why would someone choose that over a Model 3? Especially since it won't be available until 2020? The Polestar 2 is a Google-powered all-electric Tesla competitor - The Verge

Surfboard version 2

Yeah, that would be nice. Hopefully I'll get it by end of this weekend.

Elon will announce that funding is secured.

It's hard being patient when I live in CA and people I know already have sentry mode and I still have to resort to keeping my back seats down so people will be less likely to smash my windows.

I wished the files would be recorded over after a day. With the way it works now, I will need to connect my usb drive to my computer and delete the files on a weekly basis.

Does anyone know how long sentry video files are kept? I know for the dashcam, they are only kept for 1 hour.

I guess there's not much humidity where I am.

I think that's definitely new. So you tap the screen to delay the lane change?

I've never experienced condensation with mine. I've driven through all sorts of weather conditions including snow.

I would take your car to the SC. I don't think the lights are supposed to do that.
