What Kind of Car Did The Model 3 Replace?

[redscott]

2015 Golf TDI. It was part of Diesel gate, they bought it back and I got a Model 3

Replacing my feet / the bus. Moved to Calgary (a car-centric city) from Montreal, but refuse to increase my carbon footprint.

Hate to burst your bubble... Moving to Alberta increased your carbon foot print by you typing the above sentence. Most of Alberta's electricity comes from burning carbon fuels

NEB - Provincial and Territorial Energy Profiles - Alberta

"... more than necessary". Solar panels are step #2. Not sure what to do about the furnace yet

I would recommend not using country column. It doesn't achieve anything in terms of promoting the brand, if anything it can potentially dissuade someone in Japan, Germany to buy Tesla.
Tesla movement is beyond any country, race, religion.

It is the country of origin for the vehicle traded, not the country of the owner.

Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring AWD => Model 3 LR AWD.

Loved the Mazda. Was one of my favorite cars. But the Model 3 is so much better than ANY car I've owned I couldn't even imagine going back to ICE.

2010 Prius -> Model 3 LR AWD.

The front end no longer sounds like dying hamsters when I floor it...

Nothing. Added it to the stable with a Leaf and Rogue Sport.

I know ICE is on the decline when on my commute to work via train, every stop on the train had one or more visible EV (usually a Tesla) in the commuter parking lot. This wasn't the case a year ago.

Here in the city, I used to see 1-2 Tesla’s. Per week.

Now, it’s more like 10-15. Per day. I commute back and forth from Williamsburg to Midtown. I notice a new Tesla around my neighborhood every week or two. Mostly Model 3s, but the X is very popular as well.

At least 4 people in the vicinity charge on 110 from their apt, running the cord across the public sidewalk with an orange cone alerting pedestrians. Never thought I’d see that in NYC.

The electrician that installed my NEMA 14-50 source told me that it has reached a point here (Twin Cities) where EV installs are pretty much the only thing he does now. He even told me that in the last week he did 3 installs for an I-Pace which he had never done before.

LOL, you are off by 10 years, as they didn't start producing cars until 1980!

They did have a 1986 Yugo!

I remember the ad campaign on the radio for the Yugo, "Buy two of them, one to drive and one for spare parts"

 

[bradpdx]

So true on the Honda, if maintained they run forever. My adult son say's I am Fred Flintstone morphing into George Jetson.

My kids know I'm really Ralph Kramden at heart anyway!

2010 Subaru WRX. Replaced with 2019 Model 3 SR+

 

[Sky-Pilot]

Replaces my old daily beater, a 2003 Saturn with 188k on the ODO...

 

[oberwerk]

2014 BMW i3 replaced with 2019 M3 LR AWD.

 

[Dan84]

Alfa Romeo Giulia. Absolutely fantastic car but had to switch due to new job (lease car). The M3P provides more bang for my buck (in silence of course).

 

[PURE NRG]

2019 Model 3 Performance replaces my 2013 Subaru BRZ Limited with significant performance mods (including a supercharger). I'm going from a car that I wrenched on for countless hours with no part untouched by me, to a car that I'm just going to enjoy owning and driving. My desire to wrench will be covered by my Jeep and Motorcycles.

 

[Bmortonco]

A 2019 Tesla Model 3 LR AWD replaced a 2006 BMW Z4. My oh my have vehicles changed in 13 years!
