    8 Years with a Tesla Model 3 (at 15k/yr, at least)

    I have a 2018 mid-range at 20k miles. What are you seeing for degradation / full charge capacity?

    What is your MID-RANGE charging to at 90% and 100%

    Dec 2018 build date. Just charged to 100% for a road trip and got to 257 miles. Daily driving protocol is charging to 70% every evening (after midnight to take advantage of cheap utility electricity rates) and generally use down to 40% ... and repeat... and enjoy the car.

    Model 3 Motors on the Tesla Parts Catalog

    Haha I have been happy to see the same part No. on my LEMR and performance edition cars. My LEMR feels quick and faster than the published 0-60. I was thinking, I hope Tesla doesn’t dumb down my LEMR if they do end up giving MR cars different parts in the future..... who knows?!

    200 Wh/mile to use heater?

    I too am in San Diego and just got the mid-range version. Question. Did you have to “limp” back home because you were driving aggressively? I live in Bonita (Chula Vista) and was wondering if I could take a leisurely drive up to Palomar and back on a single charger. Thanks!

    Are all rear motors the same?

    I’m taking delivery of a mid-range Model 3 tomorrow and I was wondering if all the rear motors across the different models (LR, LR AWD, performance) are the same? Some informantion when the mid range was announced guessed that the mid range might get a different cheaper rear motor to save costs.
