What you describe about waiting 1-2 years for the price to drop is EXACTLY what Tesla wants you to do. At the beginning of production they can’t make that many so production costs are high but demand is high so they can charge whatever they want. Eventually, production increases, economy of scale takes over, margins improve, demand slows, so price drops. Moral is if you want to be the first to own a new Tesla model, be prepared to stomach insane depreciation because they price cars based purely on supply and demand.

Now that interest rates have gone up and demand has dropped, Tesla is dropping prices to avoid idling their plants.

Not really. In the US, many buy cars they actually can't afford and take out huge loans on them - to them, having > 30 k $ negative equity in a car can be serious trouble. The problems of accelerated depreciation after the manufacturers cut prices isn't new. It probably goes back to the golden days of the Ford Model T when ole' Henry lowered prices whenever some innovation would reduce production costs by a few bucks. In Europe, FIAT did pretty much the same with most of their mass models in the 2000s and 2010s. Initially, they advertised New models like a must-have fashion article and when demand dwindled, sharply lowered prices to maintain sales - with early buyers ending up holding cars much longer than they would have liked to.

I had the same issue with my MS3. Camber is meant to aid when taking turns at high speed but the sacrifice is high tire wear from everyday driving. Also the stickier the tires the faster they wear. It’s shitty but performance vehicles come with a high level of maintenance.

A lot of “regular” cars had huge markups in 2021. Now, they are discounted below msrp. How is that any different than Tesla? You can’t negotiate Tesla prices, so their online prices have fluctuate with market demand. How is that hard to understand? Everything was inflated in 2021, Tesla vehicles were no different.

The thing with gap insurance is if you wrecked your car your regular insurance would pay for an equivalent replacement car. You could continue to make your payments on $140,000 and have the $62,000 replacement car exactly the same as the one in this video because that is what it is worth.

Out of curiosity - is there a camber fix for the toe-in issue?

@VehicleVirgins : Tesla may have deliberately set the camber to such a high negative angle because it greatly improves handling when cornering. But I can see why the rapid tire wear would be an issue. Basically, you decide whether you want an inexpensive car for transportation, or an expensive toy for fun driving. But most buyers would probably never research this particular point, which is what makes it dangerous.

I have a 2013 S P85+. It comes with 21” staggers. Looks nice but obviously it’s got the same rear tire issue, because you can’t swap them to the front. I ended up buying a used set of classic model S 19”s. No issue since…. Ride much smoother with less road noise.

Tesla was never well known for build quality, handling or vehicle dynamics. Just being electric and going quickly in a straight line. I’m guessing as more people catch on about this, the depreciation will get worse and worse….which we’re starting to see now.

Facts

did you lower your car?

correction...it's price is 62 grand, and you owe 100k + interest. Some of you need to look at an amortization chart sometime and see that you are paying at least double the loan amount when you add in interest. Loans are always a bad idea.

@TronchedeCake-ws7sd

Taking Tesla's loan option seems beneficial to me because in my case I would invest the money that I would be temporarily saving for that purchase. If you take right now the Model X Plaid for example, you have to put down roughly $15k-$20k, and pay ~$1,250 a month over 8 years (so $120,000 over 8 years). The total cost will be about 22% higher than purchasing it in one go (so $33k more, which is not double at all btw, no idea where you got that from), but you can make a hell of a lot more than $33k within 8 years by investing the $120,000 you don't spend immediately. So loans are a blessing if you know how to invest.

Would a good alignment shop not be able to sort the rear TOE (rather than camber) out? As it’s the toe that comes with aggressive camber that kills tires, and not the camber itself. All RWD/AWD cars have adjustability for this, so I’m sure it takes a shop that know what they are doing to adjust correctly and away from the incorrect factory setting.

Tesla model X plaid 2022 owner and like so many others I’ve seen the car depreciate by about 30 grand and in less than two years I’ve owned it. Besides the fact that you don’t get the advertised mileage, I’ve dealt with a plethora of issues with the car breaking down so much to point where I’m returning the car under lemon law. Tesla offered to Repurchase the vehicle. Luckily, I’m receiving all my money back l, minus the PPF install and winter tires that I had to purchase because it just comes with the worst possible tires for winter weather in my opinion… Taking long trips to Vermont and I’m a snowboarder so yes, winter tires is a necessity. I do love the technology of a Tesla. I think they’re amazing cars, but in terms of range, they are just not quite there yet. I’d rather put gas in a car for five minutes than have to wait 20 minutes plus to charge my car each time on long trips… Time is money and there’s been times I probably get about 250 miles if that on an average of a 315 mile range that Tesla claims… That is just not good enough for me I read online somewhere by someone who put it quite well, Tesla is a rich man’s second car.

You can check your own wheel alignment at home with a string or chock line, with your tires on that car you should have about 1/16" gap on front of wheel for tow in. I can tell by your tread you have one side of the tire out of balance and excessive towin. I gotta think if you bought a car for over 100k did you overcharge your customers?

The tire issue is life-threatening, but the depreciation you can get over.

Take out some of the batteries so it weighs less and get a camber kit and tyres Will last longer.

in nz we can go to a tyre shop and they can set up the suspension correctly, i dont know why they dont do that in the us

the inner wall of the tire wearing out used to happen to my old shitbox car that was slammed / too low. This was about 15 years ago. Wouldn't expect this from a modern factory setup for a car that is almost in the realm of supercars. Maybe telsa should investigate a camber kit so the rears can be adjusted to within a reasonable spec.

I can't imagine spending that type of money on a car and then having to worry about a blowout due to a manufacturing issue. Especially since you know you're driving fast in that car that's a huge safety hazard

Idk. I've got a Plaid. I've also got a 2013 p85+. Those of us on the earliest models were well aware of the inside wear, but other than going through tires faster (just the rears and in 10k miles, not 5k), there was never a real concern, and I've never heard of a major incident due to this issue over the last 10 years. I do think the variant of Michelins that are recommended has changed in the play decade, and that's helped. That might also help with the plaid.

He's just a whining little girl who couldn't wait for prices to drop but elected to pay the higher price that's common with new model electronics. It's called recoup cost just like a new brand TV and new medicines. The companies always have to recoup the upfront design and engineering cost. 🤷‍♂️

What is your electric vehicle worth? Went to the local car dealer to trade in my electric vehicle for a gas vehicle. And he gave me some good advice. He said there was a junkyard just right down the road.

Had this happen to my 22 model s on the 21” wheels. Michelin replaced both the back and offered to cover 75% of the tires.

Almost everyone who bought in 2021 paid more - most at dealerships that charged 10k+ called a market adjustment. Definitely more a timing issue than anything else. i agree that 5k on a set of tires is ridiculous though - glad you pointed that out. Hopefully Tesla addresses this issue. On higher speck cars in your price range they would sell for 30k or more over MSRP so your pretty close to everyone else. It was a good time to hold off, but you have also generated revenue through your videos on youtube so hopefully this helped you recoup some of the costs of the depreciation.

Like you say they are burning a lot of customers and only time will tell whether it will affect them in the future.

This should not be something the costumer has to handle. Name another company that has so much negative camber it destroys tires?

What exact wheels are those? They don't look like 21" Arachnid wheels.

I'm pretty sure those rims you are running aren't OEM. You can even see those rims don't fit the car, why would you still run with them? No wonder you'll get tire issues. Also if the camber is an issue, get it aligned properly. About the depreciation, nobody told you the car wasn't gonna depreciate in value so why would you cry about it.

Totally understand your frustration. End of 2021 was a terrible time to buy a car, even though rates were so low. Used car prices were super inflated at the time, as well. On the flip side, there were a number of people who ordered Plaids when the price was $110k, but then got delivered when they were $130k but were locked into their original price, so they probably felt pretty happy then, and now their cars are down a more reasonable percentage from their purchase price. For me, a current model 3 owner, and former S owner, who wants to get back into an S, this drop is a blessing because used S prices are going to drop as well, allowing me to get much more car for my money.
