I understand that it was for profit but they really screw their long time customers just so they could gain new ones. They should've prorated a pay back program for any customers that purchased their Tesla for the last 3 years or so. Like if you had just gotten it before the price drop and lost $13K or so then you should have at least gotten $10K back. Something granular and not just a straight deep drop like that.

Ive only heard of 20k battery replacements though if the battery is damaged from road debris, like the coolant line getting sliced.

You most certainly will not be making $100,000 a year in residency Once you're done with residency, you will make no less than $250,000 a year Even as an outpatient primary care. Maybe pediatric get paid closer to lower $200. My first year out of medical school I made 52,000 then 56 and 57,000 a yr.

Pros: All the tech, autopilot, charging at home (cost me $25/month for unlimited home charging), maintenance, safety Cons: Some things are not that great, handles are hard to open with a baby in hand. Autopilot can be lackluster on certain roads (not highway) in Texas. Bought at 39k a year ago to replace a Mercedes GL, put $10k down, roughly $500 for the monthly payment, should be paid off this year. Software Engineer in a MCOL area.

great car!

i'd like to see the driver seat in the first model Y that was interviewed Mans paying the same amount he weighs in monthly payments

"Rattles a little bit" it would help if the car wasn't sitting on the ground

[@zaynesworlds]

Just got a 21 model 3 rwd plus 30k miles 3k down paying 383 a month

[@someoneelse6934]

2024 MYLR $44k. I was initially going to pay all cash but decided to do half so a monthly payment of $410. I am “investing” that half and bought NVDA stock a couple months ago. I’ll be paying off the loan next month with $33k extra profit above that. I’ve been retired since age 39. My first Tesla but I absolutely love it.

[@moderncontemplative]

The average monthly payment is $550 -1k not including insurance

[@manonamission2000]

Now I understand why most doordashers are driving a Tesla... the crazy monthly payments

[@TheColdestIsh]

Nah uber rents them for the low.

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

I had a uber driver pick me up in a Tesla It felt like it was made cheap inside , made alot of squeaky noise. I test drive a Ford Mach-E and it was fun driving it from Los Angeles to Vegas and back but finding a charger for Ford was horrible. The problem is, I feel like after 5yrs the EV is deferring your fuel cost. Do you replace the Battery for 10k to 20k or trade in your ride and have endless payments for the rest of your life. I like to see my rides last at least 15yrs before buying new, wanna enjoy at least 8yrs no car payments I can't see myself waiting hrs in line for a 80% charge, 1hr charge, freaking out about the miles left. I'm sticking to gas

[@RedEyeC]

$135 to fill up a BMW SUV? I pay $40 to fill up my Kia Forte - does the BMW have a 30+ gallon gas tank?? One thing you don't like about your Tesla Y? The streak of bird poop below the door handle

You should go to a cold climate area and ask the same questions. I would get a tesla today if I didn't live in Michigan. I find it hard to get clear answers on range loss during my states colder months

[@pkerry12]

One year of owning a Tesla model 3 saved 4000 AUD in fuel and 0 dollars in charging cost because free charging in Australia

We would have gotten a better idea if he asked the important questions that makes a monthly payment. Such as, money down, apr percentage, and how many months/years financed. Hopefully on the next video

[@cleopatrajones2024]

That has nothing to do with the car itself, it has something to do with your credit and with the APR is. Apples and oranges.

[@Zackeryeet]

Just bought a 2021 Model 3 Performance with 51k miles for 22K after a 1K Down Payment. Listening to these people's car payments is insane. Im paying 298 a month for 72 months. These people who bought new are nuts.

[@DavidAlan2Win]

Best car ever! 2022 Model Y LR here. My favorite things are Auto Pilot, Regen Braking. I pay $1,045/mo. Got 40K left to payoff. Total cost to finance was 76K @ 2.6% APR. Put 20k down of pure earnings from $TSLA. Biggest things I don’t like: Glass roof, rear-view mirror rattles and I believe Tesla has defrauded the consumers for those who overpaid on FSD and I wish they’d walk it back and issue partial refunds without a class action lawsuit. I make 125K and I’m a safety inspector/technician.

[@keokio7]

wow, I'm looking at a Model Y Performance and its about $45k out the door right now

[@Jayg2420]

Marcel, 600 a month. For no oil changes. You're only going to spend approx. 800 a year in maintenance for a car.

[@SeaJayBelfast]

We have a really nice Honda Civic. Paid £5000 cash. Does everything, super practical, 50 mpg, 400+ miles on a tank. I couldn't imagine burning a 10 grand deposit plus at least 500 a month on a fucking car. There's so many better ways to spend your money than cars.

[@ballooneyjr4294]

50mpg on a honda civic? in the US car prices are inflated, for 5k you would be lucky to find a 2005 honda civic with less than 200k miles on the odometer for 5000. New honda civics are going for $30000 and 4 year old used ones for like $22000, so compared to a tesla its not that much of a difference in price (2k ?) and you're getting a way nicer car plus no gas and less maintenance costs.

[@jeffg4096]

Recently bought a used M3.. researched charging rates.. i only charge at home, but it's my commuter. Cost is only .10 per kwh.. public charging in Arizona ranges from .13 (rare) up to almost .50. imagine for gas, people paying up to 4x. Why are some EV owners willing to pay that premium? If I didn't have cheap home pricing, then I probably wouldn't have bought an EV.

[@mostmost1]

I own a used model 3 also. I haven't noticed the increase in my electric bill. 2 children moved out also so I guess the car males up for that.

Med school with a side gig?, has to be in premed, I assure you I had absolutely no time for a any kind of side job when I was in my residency.

[@cleopatrajones2024]

I kind of thought that. I don't doubt that he is in med school but I doubt he's doing all that side stuff. He's just a Tesla lover or just an electric car vehicle lover. I have an Audi e-tron and I don't pay anything. The first thing I've bought were tires at 30,000 miles. The four tires were $978 at Costco.

[@luckygurl70]

Hearing that these people put $10k down but still have a $400-500 car payment each month would be my “what don’t you like about your Tesla” response.

[@SeaJayBelfast]

100%. It's odd how people who finance cars barely mentions the five figures they spent initially. Madness

[@t33sher]

$279 / month, i put 3k down. I had several BMW's before my model 3, including a BMW i4. Model 3 is the best car I've ever had, hands down. Especially value-wise. Also, FSD is the real deal and life changing.

I love tesla, but it does have some issues, eventually a bunch of stuff are going to stop working properly specially annoying noises on the driver side wheel while turning, sensors that will stop working, do not sit on your tesla with weat clothing (after the beach) you will damage the sit sensor, tires don't last for too long, if you get a model x same issues and also truck door not closing and opening by itself, windows not closing, some of this issues you can resolve it with the help of youtube. Something I really don't like about tesla is windshield washer will go inside your car if you are driving and your driver window is open.

No maintenance…. Wait until the battery flunks

I hate that ppl talk down on ppl that have a Tesla if you can’t afford it that’s your fault. Let ppl be teslas really save on money plus they give you warranty 100k and you can extend it for almost another 100k miles for the battery so it’s really a good investment. Gas will soon go away so gotta catch on early before everyone else has to make the change completely.
