Until you only use no stalk, going back and forth to cars that have stalk will always create difficulties. I drive both the S and the 3, and I'm always having a hard time every time I switch around what I drive. Meanwhile, my wife only drives the S and mastered the no stalk without any...

I have both, I have the model S LR and Model 3 RWD. If you want ride quality, quietness and comfort, and long drive, model S it is. If it's for daily driving less than 20 miles daily and no need to worry about where to park and way cheaper, model 3 RWD is enough. If you really need the range and...

I actually prefer it that way. I just blend in.

If you’re coming from an S class, you will see the difference in comfort and ride significantly especially you’re looking for the plaid. I came from driving a panamera and I didn’t see much difference and actually preferred the Model S interior. But for you will be different. My tip, go to Tesla...

You're the parent. You need to make a decision which is better for you and your family. No matter what, your son will be mocked no matter what you give.

For mine, driving above 100 degrees doesn’t affect much. But driving 75mph and up plus the cargo affects my range by a lot.

Just 5 years ago, I’m one of the people who was watching on the sideline since we drive a lot and the supercharging station was still limited. Fast forward to today and just got my 3 and S last month, I'm impressed with the current and future supercharging network. I've seen existing stations...

Thanks. Hahaha, it’s 90 degrees here as the hottest and I went to Vegas last weekend and you can feel the heat and I finally wore a cap. Lol. I didn’t do the roof since I don’t really feel the need and I was right. But I felt the need when I went to Vegas. Good thing I don’t live there.

Ngl, these might end up in a possible fistfight. Finger cross🤞

I found a new charging spot near my area inside a covered parkingspace where people detail their cars while charging. So next time I go there, I'll be joining them too. They brought their detailing set. I’ll probably learn a thing or two from them.

Fair enough. It took me 10 years before joining in ngl. It worked for me now since I live in an area that has 12 superchargers now within 15 minutes. That was a no brainer for my part. If you don’t use supercharger, might as well wait for the killer deal, set up your build and how much are you...

What was stopping you from getting it last month? I really think the $7500 discount plus the 3 years free supercharger was a good deal and I didn't blinked.

Turn signal is the hardest to master. On easy cruising days, I was able to master it after 1k miles. But driving on street during rush hour traffic and try to zigzag my way out is quite challenging, I still miss pushing the right button. Sometimes I feel like I’m just doing a Hail Mary while...

Ooops, I forgot to mention mine is FormulaOne Pinnacle for my S. I prefer the color undertone of the FormulaOne with the black exterior. I chose it over the XR prime Plus that’s why I’m familiar with the color and Xpel only offered 20/30. I decided to go 25 instead since 20 for me looks dark and...

Xpel 70 is more on the bluish side and more translucent. The Xpel 50 is more on the black/gray Smokey side. Mine is 25 side 50 front

That’s an expensive tire. I hope someone reviews it.

If you drive more than 4 hours Everytime don’t do Tesla for now. Besides that, what else you can ask for from Tesla over any other vehicle. The bonding with my family and my wife got closer than when we don’t drive Tesla.

Hahaha, ikr. I feel your pain. I'm glad I only picked the MSLR for my first S. I have a chance for an upgrade. Lol

I remember the saying, upgrade no downgrade. lol. Congrats on the new ride and the referral discount!

Hahaha!!

Yea. Make sure to work with Sales Advisor. I did that in the store. He confirmed it to me one step at a time and once I got the delivery I got the 20k credits on the 3 and FSD plus the $1k discount and 3 months FSD on my S. Since both on your name, it’s quite confusing and you need to make sure...

I created another email log-in. You can just put the car on your current account later after delivery as another user. That's what I did. I purchased a model 3 and S this month.

It all depends on the area and affordability. I live in Irvine and it’s common to drive a Tesla. It’s the workhorse vehicle here. That’s the daily driver here especially since we have 11 superchargers with more than 150 stalls now and counting that are within 5 miles. I remember back in high...

I bought 1 year ahead before I let my daughter starts driving. She just got her permit. I prefer buying now than later since M3 still has stalks which is very helpful for new drivers. On top of that the $2500 discount on existing inventory and the federal credit and California rebate. I picked...

Always get different quotes.

Go for that

That happened to me and I just reordered it again and lost my $250 order fee. I tried and there’s no way around it. Just think of it as $750 off loyalty. Do not forget to order through your referral link.

Congrats!

It might take up to 24 hours after delivery.

No discount when ordering from factory

I was referring to people buying the LR, lowest price was $57990 but most will buy it with the upgraded wheels and it easily goes up to $60k. I rarely see SR back then. We’re going off topic here. And it’s not apples to apples. I know some people who bough between July -September 2022 with major...

I will assume you have free supercharger for the next 3 years. If you do, time to test it since it’s free.

I got the 2023 MSLR and the lines are not visible. I assume they changed it like what was mentioned above.

Lol, like back in college, my civic on downnpipe. I thought I was cool. Lol no judgement here, get the car that best represent you and not what others drive and feeling FOMO. Right now as of this moment I’m enjoying my 3 and S. 3 for short drive and going to work. S for family and long drive...

Get a new one, $38k minus fed credit and state rebate and 15 miles or less. New is 44k miles better.

He Ubered it

It’s a matter of choice. Imagine the conversation of horse riders and car riders before. Horse riders will always say, he can go anywhere he wants too. Car owner sir, I don’t smell like a horse )$/!;. Just saying

At the end of the day, most cars have depreciating value. The 2021 era seems like a once in a lifetime event. Buy it when you think it’s a good and don’t look back. Enjoy the car. Just think of the model 3 buyers in 2022 for $60k and you can get it now for $37k minus fed credit.

What’s crazy is the price of LR and M3P are almost the same so tempting to get the M3P existing inventory.

Never go cheap on tires. Pick the most efficient and proven.

Depends on the color combination. Some have lower discounts but the white ext and black int has the biggest discount. For MSP is just the badge that says I own one for bragging rights. If you can afford it go for it. FYI the summer tires it comes with is awesome for looks but man using it on...

Thank you. I try to avoid that place even though it’s the closest to me. Let us know when it opens up.

This one is not showing on the app. TY

That’s better than the current Model S! But hey why not! I’ll be buying another 3 if that’s on the plate. Where will I sign up?

And to top this off, I will be replacing my current 3 to the new anyways. It’s not like I’m keeping this forever. The current government incentives was an easy choice. Meanwhile if you don’t get any incentives on your end and you want to keep your car longer, the refresh might be of a concern...

In hindsight, once the model 3 revamp rolls out, there will be a good amount of existing model 3 owners that will be upgrading to the new one. That’s my opinion not a fact. But I wouldn’t be surprised.

Negative. It’s the angle. Lol

Hahaha. 3.1 sec seems enough for non racers. I worked with a sales advisor and they called me when the color combination we liked arrived. They have the incoming inventory that we can’t see.

Seems like you’re dead set for MSP. We got the white and never regretted it. Two weeks of driving and I’m still figuring how to use the turn signal. Personally picked the steering wheel for preference and test drove the yoke And my wife doesn’t like it at all, me personally I can live with it...
