I've been a Tesla fan for a long time. Started with a Prius Plug In, BMW i3 BEV, and Bolt EV. I was always interested in a Tesla, just felt it was more EV than what I needed. I stopped by the Richmond, VA Tesla Store one day to look at the Model 3 and get some basic information. I spoke to a sales advisor and asked a couple of questions. I inquired about the range for the LR, SR+, and SR, not having a clue. They were friendly, but not that helpful. After several questions, I mentioned I'd brush up on my Model 3 101 and return. I spent a week online, YouTube videos, and here. Didn't take long to have a Model 3 working knowledge. One I decided I wanted a Model 3, several week later, I arranged a test drive and was impressed. Once back at the service center, the SA asked me what I wanted to do. I stated I was ready to order a Model 3 Performance and we completed the order. Best part was viewing every YouTube video I could find.
