    Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

    Too be honest I have no idea what GPU was in my 2020 Model 3. I never thought to check. Ill just go back under the rock I crawled out from and be happy with my car next week lol

    Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

    I just sold my model 3 to Carvana in November. The "type of GPU" that was installed was not something they requested or even list on their site. I dont know how much that affects resale value too be honest.

    Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

    Tesla did officially state that these changes would not be gradually phased into cars and transitioned by the end of Q2 2022. Until then I think all we have to go on is the word from Service Centers and SA's. It sounds like the only way to guarantee receipt of an AMD chip would be to wait until...

    Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

    Hello all, I just spoke with Tesla Service (not my SA) and they were able to track down my Model Y. They informed me that my car has the intel chip. They also stated that although some of their production lines are using the AMD chips they are not 100% transitioning until end of Q2 2022 and...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Couple of things lol If the SR+ will work for me then what is wrong with that? I, like everyone else on here will agree with you that the LR AWD is better. But everyone has a budget. Tesla wouldn’t make a 42k car with the expectation that “if they don’t want to spend 52k they just shouldn’t...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Thank you! And I 100% agree. I am sure anyone with a SR+ would love a long range but for me, it is either go with the SR+ or sign another civic lease. The LR AWD is just not in the cards right now. there have been whispers of my employer putting in chargers at work as more EVs keep popping up...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    hey there! Yes I do have a garage and the car will be parked in the garage and charged overnight. I am having a 14-50 outlet installed. do you think I am going to have to frequent the supercharger? I was hoping to only have to use in rare instances.

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    oh yeah I couldn’t lease one. I drive too many miles for a lease on a Tesla.

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    I guess that’s not the point of the post. I don’t think anyone is denying the the AWD LR version is better but for some, including myself that extra 11k is just the straw that broke the camels back financially when it comes to a car. The post was more to verify that the range in the SR+ is...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    sounds like you were in a similar situation as me as i am replacing my commuter Civic. I am sure I would love the LR AWD, who wouldn’t? But I have a family I have to put first financially and 10k is a lot of money to spend if the SR+ will do the job.

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    haha I am sure I will regret it when my wife looks at our savings account. The AWD is just outside of our budget to spend on a car.

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    It is closer to 12k when you consider taxes and loan APR. When I got a quote for the AWD version it was $11,876 more than the SR+. Those darn taxes...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    From the looks of it so far, the majority of people on here seem to thing the range wont be an issue. If I have to pull off and charge once and a blue moon I am perfectly fine with that. We have a bigger SUV for longer trips so I am not super worried about it. I just wanted to make sure it was...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Haha ok ok I wont. I didnt / dont know anything about it. I am pretty content with the loan / monthly payments on the SR+ it was right at the cusp of my price range for a car. I certainly dont want to reduce the range lol

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    I honestly didnt know that was an “off the menu” option. Does the SR get the same EPA range as the SR+? (250miles)?

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Haha I think that poll exists. I seem to remember reading something like that. I think its a mix of people. Most wanting the perfor Thank you so much! This made me feel much better!

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Haha but my range anxiety will be replaced with financial anxiety! Good point. The highway speed limit is 65MPH I usually will do around 65 - 70MPH however with autopilot I will probably go a little slower and just relax lol

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    I did, but leasing the car turned out to me a lot more than buying it at that mileage. Trust me, I would love to move out of Ohio. But I have a lot keeping me here lol

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Unfortunately in Ohio and Virgina its not “legal” to use the referral codes. I tried to use a friends when ordering the car. So I am not sure what they are doing lol

    Thank you :) We do have a Honda Pilot we use for longer road trips (gotta save up for that model X haha)

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Thank you everyone. Tesla offered to let me take a test drive car overnight and do my commute to ease my mind. They said they have no concerns about the car making the drive and even offered to thrown in some free supercharging miles for those one off occasions I have to stop off to charge. I...

    Haha I like the move out of Ohio option!

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Haha I appreciate the enthusiasm for the speed but my concern / reason for this post was to see if the range in the SR+ was adequate enough to support my commute. 12k is a lot to pay for fun, I can There is a super charger on my way and another one close to my work. But I would like to not...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Oops I thought I mentioned that! There are two superchargers. There is one exactly half way though my commute right off the highway and another right by my work.

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Thank you! The current lease is up in my car (honda Civic) so I either have to sign a new lease or go with the Tesla. I have been keeping an eye out for used / existing inventory over the last 7 months or so with no luck on the model 3’s. I did however see a good amount of model S’s for sale but...

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Thanks Thank you! To be honest I dont really care about the speed. I am coming from a Honda Civic that goes 0-60 in like 8 seconds lol. It’s all about the range. I would gladly take a slower care if it meant I could get a little more range.

    Tesla Model 3 SR+ with 100 mile round trip commute

    Hi All, So I recently placed an order for a Model 3 SR+ which at the time of ordering has an estimated range of 250 miles. I drive 100 miles a day round trip, 50 miles to work and 50 miles home which is roughly 15 miles back roads and 35 miles highway (65-70mph). My wife and I have a bigger SUV...
