What a beautiful couple. You can instantly tell when two people have found their soulmate. This was a throughly enjoyable video. Keep the videos coming!

[@deanprater12]

@@bobbygilmore2076 Absolutely. But I will say you can tell these two have put a lot of work in their relatiosnhip. They’ve looked past each others flaws and gotten passed the bad days/weeks. Younger couples see relationships like this and think they’re soulmates. I see two people that put in the work and just genuinely enjoy each others time together.

[@bradcooke5383]

Y'all are so funny together. Great chemistry. Thanks for the video and enjoy your Model 3 Dave.

[@tonireed4308]

Cathy is the best...She goes in on everything that really matters...She's a keeper Dave...lol Kyle is so Blessed to have parents like you both...He needs to recognize...lol Safe travesl guys! Keep the videos coming!!! 😇😇😇

[@7eva77]

Great reviews and great family synergy. Very pleasant to watch. Keep going 👍

[@ihearttesla]

Looking forward to seeing Buc-ee the Beaver in the back seat...He's so lucky!!!🥰

[@RaviWimalaratna]

Hi Dave, l drive the same car M3 Highland in Melbourne, Australia. Everything is good about this car except one major issue. There is a blind spot area in front of the car. Camera mounted on top of the windscreen cannot see about 3 feet in front of the front bumper. Therefore, the car cannot park drive nose in, to a desired distance. This issue is very much highlighted by others. I think, the failure to have a front bumper camera has made it difficult for Tesla to address this issue. Please comment on this issue in your next video.

[@sunnysider6350]

Dave, question for you. What is more expensive ? Buying a new Tesla every 3 months or maintaining your wife?

[@mariowolfe_]

Love this video!! 😊 I have the same exact car and I love it! Best decision ever! My first EV too! Great work!!

[@Skittles20Candy-k2h]

I test drove one yesterday, it’s a good car but the regen braking is a bit too sensitive. I’m sure you can adjust the regen level but 20 minutes test drive didn’t give me a whole lot of times to play with everything. I’m currently looking for a good road-tripping EV to replace my Volvo XC60.Tesla Model Y or 3 is definitely under consideration. VW ID Buzz and Mercedes EQE 350 are also on my list.

[@darrenvoyer6711]

I’m putting my money on the new Porsche Macan EV this fall!

[@robert5008]

Been a long time viewer, yup Kathy is getting her Porsche back but she won't get it unless it has the Tesla charger port.

[@darmou]

There is an aftermarket install (i1Tesla did a video about it) that allows you to close the door by pressing the brake.

[@scottbreseke716]

Padington never has a bad word to say about ANY of the cars

[@trinitonv8]

Nice!Im waiting for my Standard range.Same spec!Looking forward to that!

[@RagnarinVa]

I got my Model 3 2024 LR a month ago. Will never go back. It had a better build quality than my old MB E350 -- not a single problem or fit and finish issue. It just works. And the sound system is MUCH better than I was expecting.

[@charliepham-gd5go]

I'm really enjoy this couple together. Dave is very funny guy 👍.

[@nihongobenkyoshimasu3190]

2:25 I like the license plate OOSDAVE (Out Of Spec Dave) !!! I never noticed it before. Is is new or did you tranfered the license plate? 3:10 The Bucky name is quite original, it reminds me of Capitain America.

[@nurseaj1248]

As someone who’s torn between the MY and M3…I really appreciate all the videos and information. I’m very petite and Kathy’s view are amazing. My husband and I are getting close to buying

[@Harrythehun]

I never regret buying the M3 but my MY is so so much more practical and versatile in everyday life. Never regretting the switch either, would not want to go back to M3 again.

[@DouglasJMark]

I echo your other viewers. You are a wonderful couple and enjoy your videos very much.

[@slowercuber7767]

10:59 Getting out of a situation can be more about having no delay (instant torque) than about 0-60 time.

[@cimage1000]

Hi Dave, I am torn between Model 3 and Model Y. Any suggestion?

[@TuneupMagic]

Test drove the 2024 M3 RWD on February 9, 2024 accompanied by a Tesla rep. Thought the POS (Not Point of Sale lol) was going to roll over when I did a quick left/right maneuver (similar to a race car warming up its tires) at only 40-ish MPH on a straight/level roadway. Tesla rep advised the 2024 MYP has similar ride comfort, and a significantly more superior road-holding ability, and the dude told the truth! The stock 2024 MYP has it all. Oh btw, the 2024 MYP costs just $5K more (out-the-door), for a $7,500-tax-credit qualified purchaser as of this writing, comparing to the 2024 M3 RWD in a cash or financing buy!

[@jmp622]

Kyles Mom has it going on 😊.

[@chrisanderson6975]

Going to full send and get myself one thanks to this video!

[@rickypickles5046]

Dave, you’re ok but Kathy is great! She is so real and relatable.

[@CarlitoswayDR]

Hey Dave! Nice videos as always but I would never switch, not even temporarily, a Model X Plain to a small and simple Model 3 unless I’m planning to do Uber with it lol. Even worse when I’m more than 6 feet tall! Hell no, too small and simple of a car for me.

[@logan594]

Cooled seats are awesome don’t have them on our 3 but have in my truck and other cars I past.

[@AlphaOmega333]

[@scottbreseke716]

Kathy! Those bumps. Make Dave get out and repave the road. :-)

[@slowercuber7767]

14:18 Perl (2023 MY LR AWD) sometimes has more wind noise coming from the passenger side than I would expect. Could her doors or windows be out of adjustment? or am I being too picky. Perl is still the quietest car I've ever owned.

[@usamasaid2860]

This woman is Amazing fine talking about the “X” whit no problem at all 😂

[@Yanquetino]

Holy Guacamole. ANOTHER new car? Can't believe it. I'm sorry, but my reaction to Tesla's "improvements" is basically: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

[@theElemDragon]

I have to say, that's the first time i've ever heard someone say that a COOLED seat makes you feel like you peed yourself. Usually that's the heated seats. Who has cold pee? And as for the cabin noise.... I currently drive a 2023 Model Y Long Range. I'm actually trading it in for a 2024 Model 3 Performance. I think what makes the new Model 3 sound so much quieter in the cabin is that, in the Model Y, it seems like you hear a lot more noise just from the suspension travel. Just the improvement in the cabin quietness, the smoothness of the ride over even smaller bumps (and not hearing the tires/suspension/etc... when going over smaller bumps), the ventilated seats (not getting white this time, not great with a leather coat).... I knew I should have waited last year when i bought my Model Y... but I don't know why I didn't.

[@Melissaldickson]

"someone say that a COOLED seat makes you feel like you peed " ~ hahah I felt the same way with cooled seats in my previous car (Lexus). First I've heard someone else having the same thought!!

[@jonrd463]

Calling it now. Dave's getting a Gravity.

[@darmou]

There is a definitely some gravity to the situation :)

The placement of the horn is where it should've always been.

[@xkr510]

This was a good one guys. Thank you.

[@xjdisuehd]

On your european cruise, can you get a starlink and do a video or two about its performance? Can we also get Dave's mom's opinions and review of Bucky?

[@satyakorrapati]

Hi can able to share thoughts of model x trade in to new model 3. How much did u lost in value. Did they give you any transfer insensitive. Is it financial advice to get into trading cars? Gives us an anything that makes us to trade into new car. Thanks

[@echoplexhandlesaredumb]

congrats but I won't buy a new one without stalks, glad I grabbed a new Y performance before the update rumored next year

[@DavidC1]

does this model 3 charge slower than the model y? Why is that?

[@ken-mb5cp]

Have the LR. great car.

[@stanmisiak5634]

Enjoy your vacation Happy Anniversary

[@wranglerlife4ever42]

As far as selecting P-R-N-D in the new Model 3......isnt there overhead push buttons for that near the rear view mirror by the sun visor? Can you confirm that?

[@Uchejnr]

It is there but should only be used as a backup if the screen is not responding and that’s a BIG IF

[@issiewizzie]

Much love from the uk concerned as my mum is 80 - worrying about her knee. is the Tesla too low

[@tonymcflattie2450]

[@hectorrivera66]

[@markmcintosh7095]

You guys are great.

[@johnpoldo8817]

Based on the horrible depreciation of EVs, is’t it better to buy a previously owned model or lease a new one? However, don’t kid yourself on a lease. The anticipated depreciation is factored in residual value.

[@sasanoble]

M3 feels faster because you're sitting lower to the ground compare to the y and x

[@Snichols206969]

Dave, if a Macan EV is in the future asset reallocation plans, may I suggest the honorary name of "Pedro"? A handsome name for what I'm sure will be a handsome car.

[@Harrythehun]

The Macan needs a German name. Heinz? Reinhard? Jochen? Rudiger? Werner?

[@cherryjohnson513]

How about the getting in and out of the Highland Model 3? Still not as convenient as the MY? Thanks!

[@Harrythehun]

Still low and cumbersome for us with stiff backs.

[@andreasmichel8420]

Upcoming re-allocation of assets? Hmm.

[@dumitru_sirbu]

Love you guys!

Be sure to checkout Jim Farley's recent discussion about EVs with CNBC.

[@DefundTheFringes]

What's with people who are constantly buying new cars and can never be happy?

[@ichigo19870]

Hey Dave, can you do a reaction video to a very sick UK singer and spread some love. He’s actually pretty sick. If you wanna listen to a multigenerational masterpiece, check out „Ren- Hi Ren“. He also put his story into the infobox. Would love to see someone like you to react to this kind of stuff ;) I can guarantee you, it’s something you’ve never seen or listened to!

I agree the seat cooling feels like I peed myself.

Do video all cars you owned from 1st car to till today model 3. Small review each car. (No very big video pls)

[@Harrythehun]

Isn't possible with a short video.

[@quickpstuts412]

Finally! Someone else feels the way I do about the cooling seats. I had them in my Lexus and I HATED it. It always felt like I peed my paints as Kathy said. Don't miss it in my model 3 at all.

[@johnpoldo8817]

Kathy said cooled, not heated seats. Remember, by default, they are off. You don’t have to use them. When very hot from a round of golf, I love cooled seats. How many of us can compare something to peed pants when we haven’t done that since a toddler?

You have the best of both worlds in my opinion. The M3 RWD is such a fun happy car and the X Plaid is the king of all Teslas. Way superior! Lovely selection!

[@gregorysims3697]

You are always gushing about the glories of a new car. At first. Then comes a chorus of nitpicking before you buy another new one. You change cars like some people try new restaurants. What does this say to potential EV buyers who can't do that? I'm glad you like your Model 3 now. But I wonder how long that will last?

No, Dave has purchased numerous EVs & hybrids that are not Teslas. I’m certain his short term EV buy list excludes Tesla. My bets are on a Porsche or Lucid Gravity.
