I have under 3k on car. Purchased car in August of 2022. Just charged to 100% for the first time and the range states 353. Supposed to be 358, I know not much but when you pay this kind of money you want every mile. What do I do?

For your own sanity, you accept that the range is just an estimate - just like every other car regardless of propulsion - and don't worry about it.I have under 3k on car.

Holy carp..... did you notice when your last ICE car had 1.4 percent less range than it was rated for? That's a headwind, a hill, 1mph over the speed at which the rating was defined.....I have under 3k on car. Purchased car in August of 2022.

I often wonder if people who worry a lot about what number the car says at 100% were that vigilant about an ICE car. I know some people had notebooks for number of gallons bought and number of miles driven between fueling stops. Is this concern just a personality type?Holy carp..... did you notice when your last ICE car had 1.4 percent less range than it was rated for?

Just wait another year or two and your range will drop by THIRTY miles, and there STILL won't be anything to do about it.
Rarely does anyone get the listed range at 100%. Mine was M3P was listed at 310, best I ever saw was 306. You probably won't like the average %5 drop in range the first year either. My 18 with 46k lost about %10 range with 274 showing at 100%.I have under 3k on car. Purchased car in August of 2022. Just charged to 100% for the first time and the range states 353.

Or, my post must be different than all of those.When you create a new thread, the site asks "is this already being discussed?" with thread suggestions. Im not sure why people create new ones, other than "I dont have time to read all that, ill just pop on here and create a new thread...." /shrug
Or, my post must be different than all of those.
We see daily posts on our Tesla Group forum as well. I constantly recommend to change it to percentage and forget about it. Their gas car never got what it said it would do either.
Yeah, I also have been watching it for years. Never made sense to me. But, I am very nerdy and love digging into the details of how things work... Five year old me took apart the Nintendo.Yeah I am positive this isnt a "TMC" thing.
I am also sure there will be people who read my last post and think its being too harsh, or unwelcoming, and let me say that is not the intention. I was simply pointing out what I see, and did not have any intention to be rude or anything, although I acknowledge that there will be people who see it as unwelcoming.
I used to put all these posts in one thread, so that:
1. When people ask "does anyone else see this?" they would see that yes, actually a lot of other people see this.
2. It could be searched and read if desired, to get as much information about the subject as one wanted.
3. People who take the time to answer these questions would have one thread to answer in, not several
4. People who were not interested in the topic would not see it overtake the subforum its posted in.
But after a couple of years of moving 4-6 posts a day into that thread (which is likely one reason mods in other subforums dont do it), I decided to let these all stand on their own.
Change the mileage to percentage and just go on with your life.I have under 3k on car. Purchased car in August of 2022. Just charged to 100% for the first time and the range states 353. Supposed to be 358, I know not much but when you pay this kind of money you want every mile. What do I do?
By defaulting to "miles", instead of percentage, Tesla sort of invites the range anxiety that generates these posts.

Do? Swap with me for my 2018 LR-AWD with over 42k miles. It has its original EPA-rated 310 miles. I paid this kind of money and I still get every mile I paid for.I have under 3k on car.
