Tesla only wanted to give me 21,500 on my 2021 MYP with 65,000 miles back in August 2024. I overpaid back in 2021 at 61,990. Elon dropped the price by 8,000 bucks a few months later! I ended up selling to Carvana for 24,300 and walked away with 2,422 bucks. I replaced it with a 2021 model S long range with 30,000 miles from Tesla for 52,000 bucks . It was a leased car and immaculate. I saved 30,000 bucks from when it was new! Moral of the story, buy a used Tesla and let someone else take that depreciation hit! The depreciation hit is brutal with Tesla’s and other EV cars!😮

I bought my 2020 Model Y Performance new, but I'm also hoping to keep it at least 10 years barring an accident that totals it. I already have 102k miles/164.1k km on it due to my daily driving but also numerous long distance road trips, to give you an idea of how much I drive that it, and still enjoy it quite a bit. By that time, the Juniper Model Y should've been out for a few years as well, so hopefully they worked out all the kinks in it by then. But yes, for other folks, I would also recommend getting a used Tesla especially if buying it new is going to stretch your wallet more than you're comfortable with. Model Y's should tank further once the Juniper refresh comes out, so you can save even more money due to the next massive depreciation hit. While the battery degradation could be a concern, I wouldn't worry about a high mileage Tesla the way I would worry about a high mileage gas car, because EVs have less moving parts. All else being equal, less moving parts means less things to break and less wear & tear on said parts.

Good points Chris and I feel for you with the serious deprecation of the X. I was impatiently waiting for the Cybertruck driving a leased 2021 Model Y DM. Just before I got my invitation to order the Cybertruck and at lease end of the Y, I bought a used 2018 Model X from Tesla. The X was a fully loaded 6 seater with EAP which I upgraded to FSD for $2K. That made the total spend under $42K for a vehicle with 49K miles on the ODO and a 1 year warranty from Tesla that sold new for $150K. Everything works and while it isn't as nice as the refreshed Model X, it is a lot of car for that money. It is now my daily driver. When I was young, I never bought a new car and lost very little money when upgrading vehicles. Then as I gained more disposable income I started buying or business leasing new cars. Now that I'm retired, I'm reverting to that early methodology of buying good used cars, in good condition for a significant savings. My wife is still working and loves her new Highland Model 3 but frankly, as nice as that car is, my 6'5" frame fits much better in the Model X and I prefer driving it on road trips. That's my $.02 ... 🙂

[@craigwflys]

Good stuff. I've always sold my car private party because I'm going to get the best price but it's obviously a hassle. They've always been under 10k so it's always been cash but a more expensive car would make me nervous because how am I going to get paid. My vehicles are always in good condition but I've learned all they usually care about is the mileage. Also I remove anything that I added in order to put it back as close to stock as I could. Removing your blue wrap was a good idea. BTW as soon as you sell a vehicle to someone private party (or anyone else) the DMV has a section on their website in which you can report the sale (new owner info, mileage, price, etc) and that instantly removes you from all future liability from the vehicle. Years ago my brother sold a vehicle and never reported it. The new owner never registered/transferred it either. Then a few months later the car was stolen and the police contacted my brother who got the vehicle back.

It’s seems like he bought it at the height of car mania where everything was overpriced. Now EV’s are not selling as we clearly head toward a recession (and hopefully not worst than that). So it’s not surprising to me that it lost close to half of the value.

[@Geckogold]

@@justSTUMBLEDupon Well, that's part of it. But the bigger hit was when Tesla themselves cut the prices on all of their cars back in 2023, even the Model S/X. The Model 3 and Y also qualified for the tax credit on top of that, bringing even more of a hit to current owners, especially those who bought during Covid before January 2023 when the tax credit kicked in again for Tesla. But while that screws over the original owners, and Hertz in the case of car rental businesses, it's great news for used car buyers looking to get an EV. Also, it's interesting how EV sales are down in 2024, and a lot of news reports talk about the "death of EV's". What they neglect to mention is that while Tesla is down, many other automakers are up in terms of how many EVs they've been selling. And they don't report how the car market in general is also slow, as people are largely burnt out from all the ridiculous markups dealers did during Covid. Instead it's mostly "Tesla sales are down this year! OMG, nobody wants electric cars anymore!"

Your tesla is plaid? Or regular?

[@TeslaOutage]

Damn you sold too low. But thanks for showing us the process 😅

[@Gabri3lRocha]

yes but to some people such as myself its worth the peace of mind even if your leaving a lot of money on the table.

[@Alpha_2288]

Sold too low ??? Find me another place that’ll take a 23’ MX long range for more than 60k. Tesla really fucked us MX owners by dropping the MSRP for more than 20K. Never buying a new Tesla again.

[@Gabri3lRocha]

@@Alpha_2288 it’s not Teslas fault. That’s the consequence of being an early adopter. I’m not hating and will gladly admit that I wasn’t wealthy enough to afford to be an early adopter

[@Gabri3lRocha]

@@Alpha_2288 also you could have just kept your Tesla opposed to selling it for nothing

[@mrlogboy]

well there is an exception, i went to Carmax, Carvana, tesla dealership and other place to see my very low milage 2010 Prius to get a Model 3. Carmax was the best .....................2nd higest price and matched another for me selling value. was no way going to go through a private type deal as wanted money to put on the NEW car ASAP if not sooner lol . No i do admit that maybe because i was buying a Tesla a wek before i reach out and said oh i have a trade in and they took the dets and also looked in person a few days after to confirm the office but they were the highest. i got over 60% of the original value and $5000 more than Carmax. liek you i did it there And locked it and as it really help pay for the new car and knocked down the price alone with all the FED/ State, county and power company incentives. Chris you did the right thing Research, you need to research for each car or time as if i did it today maybe Carmax would be best deal , lol keep up the good work

Tesla is to blame for the crazy depreciation. They slash prices on new model years.

[@manuelwilson9214]

Thanks!

[@2049chs]

what do you & spouse do for a living?

[@GregySVK]

That depreciation is insane... I understand these cars are "new" in the market and technologies, prices, everything is getting better so our teslas or other EVs are going down in value quicker. I'm wondering whether it will be a good time to buy new tesla. It's like mobile phones market, everything is going forward really quick. Of course phone is $1k, not $100k... Answer is - buy used. But I hate that tbh 😁 other answer can be - don't sell ever 😁

[@mileslynch]

I know you said you had too many cars but why not sell the Cybertruck?

[@EverydayChris]

I have videos on it!

[@SpottedSharks]

Ah, McLovin. Good times.

[@EverydayChris]

Best times hahaha

[@youngboy4129]

My local dealer gave me $20,000 for my 2023 Model Y with 20000miles on it.

[@bladmoreno]

20k I would never sale it for that low. I would have bought from you

[@chelseaboyuk75]

Loved the Blue pal

[@jianbinchen2881]

why buy just lease.

[@henrycruz45cal]

Never, ever do what he did. I always sell my car as a private sale and it's always 5-7k more than any of those places offer.

[@EverydayChris]

I mention that in the video
