Owner's, please weigh in here....
I just listened to Ben Sullins latest YouTube video where he discusses his impression of the Model 3 that Turo lent him (for free) to drive from LA to Las Vegas. While he said he "loved" the car, his other comments were a bit off-putting to me as a prospective Model 3 buyer and I thought I'd share the transcript (if you didn't watch it) to get other owner's opinions....do you agree with him or not....

“I will say it's not nearly as
comfortable and as its kind of luxurious
or sophisticated as the Model S ...the only
thing that really beats it are the S and
the X and and and as Tesla I don't think
they were lying
previously when they said that when when
they talked about it being you know
stepped down it really is a step down
from the s so so that's kind of the
thing that that I would really that's
like where my head is it's it's a step
down from the S for sure
granted the S is a lot more expensive so
that there's there's the big difference
it really is ….I really love the car
but compared to some of the higher-end
tells it it it's hands down not as good
it's just simpler and and and all that
kind of stuff there are some things I
really like but overall hey I think the
s and X are far better cars so there you
go I am excited to get mine though I'm
really thrilled about it”
“I find it funny that so many
people were upset about [the Alcantara] it's not this
car is not a premium Tesla at all
compared to the s it's nowhere near the
quality I would say the S is a
phenomenal vehicle and if you get in a
newer nicer ask me these things they're
like really really nice get into the
three I'm like this is cool I like this
yeah it's a great car but but it just
doesn't even so I'm not worried about I
think if somebody's really bummed about
that they should just consider getting
an S something that's just a far nicer
vehicle in general”
“Mel ask what about the model 3 build
quality lots of them going back for
fixes yeah the only thing it's
definitely not is well done as the S or
the axe I mean you can feel like it's
it's a much lower end car just the
simplicity of it and the materials and
all that stuff”
“Nathan s are you in favor or more tablet
like screen the model 3 or like me so
you'll enjoy the screen in the Model S
and X yeah I definitely like the S and
the X screen more not necessarily
because of the positioning but just
because of the size the model 3 screen
is is quite a bit smaller coming from
the S and so and it also you know I've
everything packed on a 1 instead of 2 so
it definitely I think that's part of why
I feel like when I get into ass this is
like a really advanced luxury car I get
into 3 I'm like this is a really cool
tech car but not nearly as nice or
luxurious as the S”
