    I just got a 2016 S P90D L+, with 120k miles (30 days ago) and it drives like a dream! Only finance 21k, price was 24K. Beside the doors handle malfunction, everything else pretty much perfect! Aligned it myself really quickly with 2 wrenches and a bit of patience. Saved $200 bucks!😂. Last night, I changed the battery setting to "Ideal" come to find out, my range is 296 miles to 100% and I am getting pretty much a mile per mile drive when driving at speed limit! Pretty impressive because I was getting also a mile per mile driven with default setting but my range was only 236 miles!! After 8 years old to be able to say I can almost get 300 miles range, (When driven decently) is more than impressive!! Not to mentioned, 110 degree weather!!

    You are absolutely right! Love to hear someone actually sharing my exact opinion. I test drove the 2023 Model S 5 times and just could not fall in love with them. They are making loud road noise, the horizontal display is showing everything too small and the car is rattling. The LR version has louder motor whining noise than the Plaid. I have that Holy Grail version of 12/2016 Model With everything on it, Recaro seats, Sunroof, FreeSuC, AP3, MCU2 and CCS in solid white. Feels so much more premium, very silent with NO road noise. Still loving it after 170k miles.

And since I have free supercharging, I care less about the reduction of range. I have 95k miles on mine with about 7% degradation. Have sun roof silver. FSD for 5k and ventilated same seats. Leather. MCU2 upgraded. Upgraded cameras. Got it with all the upgrades (except for 3rd row seats). Still get about 140kw. Had it all over the US and Canada. Great road trip car.

    I have watched all your videos with your old model s. I loved that car. Really made me fall in love with Ev / Teslas. I am a frugal person. Always looking for a deal. Never like to pay max pay for anything. I just bought less than a month ago a 12/17 model s 100D. 39,000 miles. Fully upgraded to HW3 and MCU2. New seats premium upgraded. It was a salvaged title out of Texas and bought in Omaha Nebraska. It was brought through high voltage testing at Tesla and passed before I bought it. When I saw it I just thought about would Kyle buy this. Am I crazy buying this salvaged. I got a really good deal on it. Far less anything comparable than I could find. I keep telling my wife that this car is teslas sweet spot. I had to jump on it even though it had a salvaged titles. I researched the wreck and it was really just light front end damage no air bags deployed. Sill has tires and wheels from the wreck with no damage. I just found this video talking about these model s’s. It was 38k out the door no dealer fees. I feel like that is a good deal. Any thoughts @outofspec

    My 2013 S60 with tech package is holding up well mechanically at 157k miles. Hardly any squeaks, no rattles. No sunroof because I didn't want any water leak issues. I bought it from a private owner at 54k miles in 2018 with CPO warranty that transferred over. Battery at full charge shows 173 miles which is about 17% reduction in miles but the car is actually efficient and uses about 282 wh/mi at highway speeds which is 184 miles of range. Of course it's had some issues. Main screen replaced (leaking) - warranty, emmc replaced - warranty, door handle - warranty, rear axle nuts - warranty, 12volt battery x2 -warranty and self replaced, PTC heater replaced diy, door handle harness diy, blend door noise diy, xenon bulb diy, rear gear oil diy. LTE modem Tesla service center. Front stabilizer links diy. Rear drive unit was replaced sometime before I got the car (later revision) and HV battery pack looks original. I've added open pilot comma which is great for lane centering and includes lane changing. No radar cruise but then again I don't have phantom braking issues. Next repair will be lower ball joints.

I did like the swivel screen function. Suggest Chris try the Pirelli PZero All Season Plus Elect tires. Super quiet, and appear to have good tread life so far. The nice thing about the OG S is the 19 inch tires are all the same size, and are more reasonably priced when time to replace.

    This era of Model S was truly the peak in quality. The Ravens might be the absolute best. You can snag a 16-18 refresh Ludicrous S for less than half the price of a new one. A much better value IMO. There are a few common issues like the MCU upgrade and air suspension, but nothing that I would consider a dealbreaker. The max charge speed on the pre-Raven models is around 155kW, so that is the biggest pain point if you're a big road tripper. The 100 pack is still much better than the 85/90 when it comes to degradation.

    I have a 2015 MS70D with the black nose cone and it pretty much drives like new. On my car the Gen 2 seats were an option as was Dual Motor and Autopilot. I kept the MCU1 but Tesla did the chip upgrade for free. My screen is slightly slow but it's not bad. I wanted to keep FM radio and I think MCU2 did not keep that unless you pay for an upgrade. My Autopilot is from MobilEye and as far as I know it still uses the radar, but I haven't had the radar in the bumper clog up with snow or bugs or dirt since late in 2021. I only have one forward camera aside from the radar, so it might be risky to turn it off where the new cars have lot's of cameras. My car came with 230 miles of range and appears to have 212 miles now.

Few 2017/later cars received FUSC, making 100 KWh retro-fits in these earlier 85's (along with MCU2, etc) a consideration that has Tesla offering $5,000 to trade-up. Our 15&16 are still quiet.

Still looking to add Rivian max pack or CyberTruck to use as our tow vehicle for more range. We’ll still keep the X.

    Just bought a mid 2018 100D, looks very similar but has the mcu2, autopilot 2.5 one of the last to still have the sunroof. Price in UK was under £25k. Bargain for such a great vehicle. Unfortunately, it also has the factory 21" turbines, lovely to look at but suffered a blow out on the way home with it! 9hrs in a layby waiting for recovery because Tesla don't do spares 😂.

    My P85D was almost perfect. I loved the Recaro seats, and nappa leather everywhere. Even though my Plaid feels a little cheap in comparison, it's a lot smoother on the freeway and I really like the interior design - I just wish the interior were of better materials and put together better. I do miss the radar cruise control - it was nearly flawless.

    There was a recall on the 1st gen MCU because of their failures. I replaced one in my 2013 MS for which I was later reimbursed. Did the owner of this get the money from the recall? My second one had the yellowing around the edge of the display which Tesla took care of by (I think) hitting it with a UV light for some hours. I replaced my 2013 with a 2020 MS Long Range (Raven). Still very tight with no squeaks/rattles. Could the noises yours is making be because it's a Plaid with different bushings? Also, does this 2017 still have free lifetime Supercharging?

    Even though the car is much larger, the interior is not really that much larger for seating area. Trunk is bigger. The Model 3 is probably quicker, and handles better. The S probably rides better with air suspension. You can get a nice Used Model 3 for the same price, get newer tech in the car.

Ever since I own it which os almost 3 years, had no further degradation and I got the car with 117k. Consumption is around 250-280. Available battery capacity is 60kv. It’s the best car I ever had. It’s all original parts even the carpet. No tittles ccs adapter enabled. I love the car !😎

    The on board chargers are for AC charging. Two ac chargers allow the car to charge at 20kW on a high power wall connector instead of 10kW. New cars only have one. Superchargers are DC charging, the chargers are in the supercharger, last I heard there was 12 (but that was back when they were 120 kW). The newer battery tech is what allows the faster supercharging speed.

    Sooooo I have a 4-5 month old Tesla Model Y Performance, and when going over uneven terrain such as turning into someone’s driveway that’s higher or lower than the road, so the whole car kinda twists like a twizzler, I hear creeks and basically just hear the car flexing, I kinda thought that was normal? That maybe every car did this but you can’t really hear it cause the engine, or maybe cause my car is new and things should get loosened up, then I hear my seat creeking if I move my body around to get comfortable and that was just painful to buy such an expensive car, and to hear that, absolutely crushing, and I not once thought THAT was normal, but I did expect it to either go away as again I loosen up the seat so to speak, or go away as we start to get out of winter, along with the other sounds of the car, things being hot and more easily moving hopefully fixes all my noises, at least the seat please, anyway, what I’m trying to say is, the car flexing sounds aren’t normal? Should be solid as can be with not a single creek? Should I send it in to get fixed or will I be told it’s within speck?
