My experience with the Tesla Model 3

[jhurkot]

Test drive?

Yeah. Nice regen and one pedal driving. Fit and finish looked good. Tried out the blue cruise and it seemed alright. Overall a pretty nice EV.

Haven't been following this for awhile. How does it compare to the tesla?

$72k for 300km range on the ford
$76k for 500km range on tesla model y
Tesla has better charging infrastructure imo.
If you’re a ford person you might like the mustang more than the tesla.
Frunk is cool, it has a drain so you can fill it with ice and non alcoholic beverages.

Any idea how charging compares to an m3?

Didn’t have it long enough to check it out for myself. Looks like 47minutes from 0-80%.
Model 3 on a supercharger is 30min 0-80%.

What would be the best way to teach people not to drive drunk or text? Or do things like this....

Flat, dry, two lane straight highway. What could go wrong?

Can you pay extra to fill with alcoholic beverages?

Finnish man blows up his Tesla in protest at battery replacement cost

Finnish motorist Tuomas Katainen blew up his Tesla S Model 2012 with 66lbs of dynamite after its battery failed and he was faced with the whopping £17,000 repair bill.

2 years ago Christmas 2019 TESLA stock was $85, lets say a nice Model 3 cost $50,000
50k / 85 per share = 588 shares.

Christmas 2021 TESLA stock $1000 per share, 588 shares....FML

Have you had any battery issues with this cold snap?

 

[Flapjack]

Have you had any battery issues with this cold snap?

Is that a rhetorical question?

Funny I haven't seen a single telsa out in awhile...... It's nice!

 

[mclean]

No, but it uses more energy at -34.

I honestly just started to notice the cars, I'm seeing chargers in the south, not so much up in John.

No, I’m actually curious

I would like to know how they handle the really slippery stuff, I'm not going to trust or even relax with AI able to apply brakes at "it's" discresion. Maybe in the "city" so us small town visitors don't rear end anybody.

All that rollover protection anti this that is probably a really good thing for 98% of drivers. Driving is a funny thing, everbody thinks they're good yet there are crashes, steady, non stop
