    Seeking Dealers Who Will Purchase Used Tesla For Best Price

    I currently have my 2019 SR+ listed for sale in Southern Ontario as I soon will be taking delivery of a new Tesla. Tesla's Trade In offers are ridiculously low as many are you are aware, so that is not an option. I believe prospective buyers are extremely hesitant to purchase a Tesla from a...

    Should I upgrade my 2019 SR+ with a 2021 SR+?

    My 2022 Model 3 is scheduled for delivery on February 2, 2022. I'm about to list my 2019 Red with Black Interior Standard Range Plus 52k kms, still under warranty for sale privately in Southern Ontario. I'm thinking I'll list it for $53,900 which would make it the cheapest Red 3 for sale in...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I'm expecting delivery sometime in February and have a question. Are these cars being delivered with Floor Mats these days? When I took delivery of my SR+ in March 2019 it did not come with any Floor Mats.

    Should I upgrade my 2019 SR+ with a 2021 SR+?

    The new and used 3 pricing has changed so much since I started this thread it is now a no brainer for me to go ahead and take delivery of a new red SR+ as I reserved at $54,XXX price and now with price increases that cost is about $8000 higher. Also, due to the price increases, new purchasers...

    Should I upgrade my 2019 SR+ with a 2021 SR+?

    It looks like that article is now behind a paywall. Here is its: Consider Jane. She’s an employee who purchases a new zero-emission car in 2019 (after budget day) for a total cost of $55,000. She’s ordinarily required to work away from her employer’s place of business and is entitled to deduct...

    Should I upgrade my 2019 SR+ with a 2021 SR+?

    Thanks djlee. This helps a lot. You can't find hardly any used 3's in Southern Ontario listed for under $50K so it sure seems to me like a sellers market with the wait for new deliveries to April - July 2022. Would appreciate any updates once you finalize the sale.

    Should I upgrade my 2019 SR+ with a 2021 SR+?

    Hi Everyone. In July 2021 I put a deposit down on a new SR+ when I saw the resale value of my existing SR+ on Auto Trader & Kijiji was appearing to be mid to high $40K's. I use my vehicle for business and personal and qualify for a higher Zero Emission Vehicle credit than the standard $5000...

    Used Vehicle Information Package Ontario - 2019 SR+ Avg Wholesale Value Stated

    Let me clarify what I'm getting at. In February when I saw how much used Model 3's were selling for privately on autotrader.ca, I out of curiousity asked Tesla for a Trade In offer on my car. They replied back with a paltry $27,000. Based on my mileage, colour, the wait time for new cars and...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    For all those who are on the fence about Elon's decision to add Bitcoin to Tesla's Balance Sheet. A few Months ago I was mulling over the difficult decision whether to add a small exposure to Bitcoin in my portfolio. What was the biggest influence in my decision to pull the trigger? Mark...

    QBTC and BTCG are both Canadian funds and are eligible to be held in RRSP/TFSA. They are closed funds though so you have to watch the premium to NAV. QBTC is better in that regard and appears to now be adding more shares daily at the discretion of the fund manager in order to keep the premium...

    S&P spike - when to sell and when to re-buy?

    The only reason for selling would be to in an attempt to accumulate more shares on the anticipated dip after inclusion, taking advantage of the fact that my Wife & I are are holding in tax sheltered account. Other than that I have no desire to sell and agree with you the share price will likely...

    S&P spike - when to sell and when to re-buy?

    My Wife are committed to being long time holders of shares. We are fortunate to hold all of our shares in tax sheltered accounts. I agree with the theory that all of this speculation leading up to the S&P inclusion and the subsequent forced buying by the close on Dec 18 is likely going to...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    My biggest concern that arose out of the presentation was Elon's comments during the "powder into film" video on the dry electrode process after Drew was being over the top positive. Elon replied "there's still a lot of work to do, I wouldn't say this is completely in the bag" when referring to...

    Chamath Palihapitiya posted similar thoughts on twitter recently with regards to the historic low interest rate environment which is expected to continue for years versus during the dot com bubble 20 years ago the bond yield was 6% which is what ultimately caused the crash.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I'm a frequent reader, infrequent poster in these forums. My biggest concern as an investor right now is the shutdown of Fremont and dozens, perhaps hundreds of suppliers whose parts are all crucial in the production of cars. So in the worst case scenario, if local and State authorities don't...

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    Same for me too. March 2019 delivery date. My feeling is its minor....range or any of the other features I care about don`t appear to have been affected. I bet it will be corrected in the next update.

    Charging beyond 90% daily

    If it's 19F or colder, you typically get the snowflake if its been parked outside for 8 hours and the battery is cold soaked. Doing a 15 minute preheat, warms the cabin, eliminates the snowflake and restores regen, making the return trip much more efficient. What really drove the importance of...

    Charging beyond 90% daily

    A 4 mile loss is only approximately 1.6% of the battery. Just throwing it out there but every time you connect to the car with the app to check the status of the battery, it wakes the car out of sleep mode and stays awake for a certain period of time before going to sleep again.

    Charging beyond 90% daily

    If her work is in a bad area and you'd prefer to keep Sentry mode on, from what I've read it will use 3 - 4 % of the battery while on for an 8 hour period. Perhaps you can find enough efficiencies elsewhere where the 3 - 4 % won't matter. Pick consecutive commuting days where the temperature...

    I'm in Southern Ontario (similar climate to yours) and got my SR+ late in March 2019 so this is my first real experience with it in Winter. So far it has surpassed my expectations in terms of its range in the Winter. In my opinion, your Wife is experiencing irrational range anxiety. I just...
