Shortly before the M3 came out, my husband told me about this car company called ‘Tesla’. He told me he wanted to put down $1,000 on a car. So, I humored him, went for a test drive in the MS and we put in the reservation for the 3. From that point on, my husband became obsessed, going on all these forums, joining a club and going to events. He was on YouTube, Twitter and any other place he could read about and learn about Tesla. He even bought a book about Elon Musk on my Nook (I’ve never ever seen him read a book!)
When a Tesla store in Miami finally got an actual Model 3 in, we went down and waited in line for an hour and a half just to see it. We left there arguing – I wanted the MS and he wanted the M3. We went back and forth. And back and forth.
Somewhere, my husband got the idea that he wanted to drive the MX. I laughed and basically was like “whatever”. He took my dad, the ultimate Tesla hater, for a drive and they both came home in love. It was roomy, comfortable, easy to get in and out of, had all the bells and whistles, an awesome windshield and last but not least, the falcon doors. My dad was sold and my husband was on a new mission – to get a MX.
Two weeks after that drive, my father passed away suddenly at the age of 63. The week after, my husband took me to drive the MX. I loved it. We then got it for 24 hours and drove the heck out of it all over south Florida. We didn’t want to take it back. We cried getting back in our Nissan, it was horrible!
We crunched the numbers and for us, it might be tight. We may have to dip into savings or lines of credit a couple months. But LIFE IS SHORT! My dad was full of live and lived each day to the fullest. He always said he wanted to spend all my inheritance because you can’t take it with you.
So… we pulled the trigger. We ordered not just the X, but the 100D with the premium package. We figured we might as well do it right. Don’t get me wrong – this wasn’t an impulse buy. We’ve done our research and due diligence. But we were always hesitant to take the leap. So if you’re on the fence, here’s my advice to you – life is short, seize the day, you only live once! Get off the fence and order your Tesla! Enjoy the ride! We can’t wait!
