Another thing worth mentioning if you are going to buy a used Tesla Model Y/3; They are coming out with a big UI update and you need to have a car equipped with the RYZN chip in it. They made the switch to this chip in December of 2021. All 2022 and newer models should have this chip but this can be confirmed in the cars infotainment system before you make your purchase got to "software" and the click "additional vehicle information" to see which processor it has. This will essentially future proof your vehicle more then cars without it.

I like that you mentioned “don’t rush”. Like you said, if the price goes up $1000 next month, it’s not the end of the world. I’m waiting 3 more months to place an order because it will be financially smarter for me to wait a little longer.

FSD has also been marked down to 8k however EAP is gone so curious how all that works and if there will be further price adjustments on that

Thank you for the helpful information, thumbs up :)

We took the plunge in 2021 with a Model 3 SR+. Missed the discounts and tax credits. It was stated a 3 month wait (at that time). We got it in one week. Still love driving it, although my wife uses it mostly 😂. We got a 2023 Y LR too (got the $14k discount + 7.5k tax credit). It’s been such a joy and so much fun to drive. We laugh at all the people paying $5 + for gas and waiting in line for 30 mins at Costco gas.

Excellent!!! Very informative 😊

Nice video. I have a 2019 LR Model 3. I bought mine for one simple reason, the cost of gasoline was closing in on $500 per month for commuting. Since I bought my car, I've spent $2500 for electricity (California) through a mix of off peak PG&E, low cost charging at work, free charging programs, and solar (since Aug '23) on 75,000 miles. My maintenance costs are $300 for a set of wipers, 12v battery replacement and cabin filters and $900 for a new set of tires at 45K. I plan to change vehicles at 100K and never plan to buy another ICE vehicle. Don't understand the push back on EV's. ICE vehicles aren't going away despite the political push for EVs because they just don't make sense for the entire population, but they do make sense for a major segment of the population, primarily homeowners who have access to low cost overnight charging and don't drive more than 200 miles a day. If you have range anxiety and have two or more vehicles an EV still makes sense for commuting and local driving and you can use the second vehicle (ICE or hybrid) for travel.

If you buy used, I would go for a 2022, you get the Ryzen chip and 16v li-ion battery instead of the lead-acid most of the new stuff without losing any of the perks like sensors and stalks.

Thanks for the video.

Should we wait for teh refresh later next year?

Y order price is lower, but discounts on inventory aren't nearly what they were just a few weeks ago, so inventory - Y's are $2-3K higher now......but at this point, waiting on that new Y anyways

Should I buy used 2022 under 25k? I'm planning to purchase around September or October 2024, I'm eligible for the 4000 used EV tax Ans saved enough to pay cash. What do you recommend? I also live in a condo, but there are tons of superchargers and EV chargers around me

I have a 2022 Outback that I bought new and I already have 94k+ miles I had a Tesla that I sold three years ago and I want another one, but I know that the warranty will be over for me in probably 2 1/2 years. I sure wish the warranty was more like 300,000 miles 120,000. I would knock out quickly. And by the way, I love your videos !👍👍

is the $120/month insurance premiums noted in this talk considered high or low or same compared to similarly priced ice and hev/phev vehicles? i'm paying $93/month for my lexus rx350 ice setup which i expect is lower due to age differences of vehicles and drivers.

@joewiley6927

Ай бұрын

The cost/benefit vs what? It comes down to cost of electricity. Most people with access to power at home will benefit from the absolute convenience of charging while asleep. Supercharging can be fairly inexpensive, if utilized at the cheap hours of the day, which are usually the lowest use hours, aka the least convenient for most people. You must also be doing something during these supercharger visits-which can include sleeping. But at a convenience cost. Now for the costs of actually setting up home charging: can be as little as the cost of the mobile charger. Depends largely on what type of outlets you will have access to. If you need to install an outlet, or install a permanent wall charger, the costs go up of course. Even if you can do the work yourself, but most will be paying an electrician. For the most part, these installs are quite straightforward, and should stay below $1,000 dollars. All in all, home charging is all about convenience, and can certainly save money too. I can, however, supercharge 60kw for less than $12 in Sacramento, Ca-if I go at the appropriate time. In some places home charging can be less than half this. Depends on your personal electric rates.

The one during winter we came back with like 10% battery. The MYLR has 310 miles EPA. Could be cutting it close esp when driving high speeds in bad winter weather while also facing some traffic or whatever. It also depends how efficient your car is while driving. Sometimes you could get more range on winter drives and sometimes a bit less.
