As my car turns 100k miles, I wanted to summarize my experience.
47 states + Canada, 20+ National Parks​

Battery Degradation 90KWH version C has been excellent:
Initial 100% range 2/17 294 miles​
12/18= 285 miles (odometer 36k)​
06/22= 283 miles (odometer 100k)​
Since Oct 2018, data recorded daily by TeslaFi​

Total of 12,195 KWH added​

AC Charging - vast majority at home on a 50 amp 220V circuit, Max typically set at 80%
558 charges at 20 locations​
Total of 12,686 KWH added​

Software – 78 updates

Service –
4/17: Initial issues with 12v battery failure and shut down (x4) in first few months. Required replacement of junction box and rear subframe wiring harness (resolved, warranty).​
5/18 Yellow border on MCU – replaced (recurred in 2019, warranty)​

5/19 Yellow border on MCU again – replaced (resolved, waranty)​
9/19 AC failure (resolved)​
6/20 HW3 retrofit upgrade for FSD​

Tires:
OEM tires lasted 25k mi, replaced with Michelin Primacy (50k) and Michelin snow tires (15k) in season​
Now using Michelin CrossClimate2​
 
My 2017 build Model S is at 97k. It has performed very similar to what you described.
I had an AC fail early on which was resolved quickly.
Driver side door handle issues in 2019.
3 sets of tires.
A chip was replaced under warranty. (this took 3 days. Uber credit for each day was provided)

Now that the 2023 is available with a conventional steering wheel I’m ready to place my order.
