Tesla Model Y & 3 (June 2024) | What I Wish I Knew Before Buying

[@bobfox321]

Ryan, bro, you outdid yourself on this video. Everything I wanted to know but was uncertain I could ask anyone! Only CAVEAT I have is BUYER BEWARE on those companies that ask you to allow them to track your driving on an app to SAVE MONEY! YOUR mileage may vary and it could make your new INSURANCE COSTS SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EXPENSIVE! Another is that they may also SELL what they find to other Insurance Companies!

[@Cappysveryown]

I gotta be honest, I have no business buying a car but I want a tesla one day

[@Speedsterawesome]

Just don’t drive one until you’re ready to buy, It really seals the deal. My dad, mom, and sister all have teslas and I drove my sisters after looking at them for years and I pulled the plug 10 months later.

[@pvic6959]

Just get one. Its honestly the last car you will ever buy.

[@txtabby]

Buy a 2023 M3. Best Tesla out there.

[@qwoozy]

​@@SpeedsterawesomeYou're absolutely correct. I was on the fence Even after doing a demo drive last fall. I wasn't sure how they'd be able to handle road tripping and for every one post saying it's doable in an EV, you can find 15 saying it's impossible. What I didn't realize is that Tesla also does extended demos. The week after I took my demo drive, I took a MYLR home for the weekend on an extended demo. I ordered one a few days later.

[@knell7900]

[@KGBos]

I bought mine 3 weeks ago. What are your favorite things about it and what complaints do you have if any? I'll start. My number 1 feature is the way it accelerates and the regenerative breaking which reduces the number of times I have to use the brakes. I also love the walk away lock feature. The things I don't like: The suspension could be softer, and the software has a bit of jank for example, the podcast app often does not resume the episode and restarts or failed to load altogether. and in apple music, the smart playlists fail to populate. Overall, it's a dream car and I love driving it.

Autopark is my favorite feature of FSD - so good it's fun to sit back and enjoy the magic. 'Full Self Driving' on the highway tho becomes 'Robot Driver' - behaving strangely to you and other drivers because it's maintaining the speed / following distance parameters you've set but it doesn't observe how the drivers around you are responding to each other to anticipate what's next, and lane changes are always abrupt. FSD as it is now behaves 'unnaturally' and like a Roomba among cats can make the cats jumpy. Hopefully more & more data will get FSD overall to where Autopark is now.

[@imrollingmyeyes3071]

Just thumb the wheel dial up past the max speed limit 5 or 10mph and it’s a lot less awkward in traffic on the highway. On the highway in busy cities I still just take over, due to all the crazy human drivers.

I’ve got both the 110 charger and the 240 wall charger. I’ve owned my TESLA. Model Y standard range 3 months now and that has been more then adequate for our use. When charging on 110 volts. Last month Tesla offered to increase our max EPA. range to 360 miles for only $1600 ( done over air so no visit to dealership is required) We decided we won’t ever need it. Our current 260 mile range always has met our needs. Even trips up North to visit family to date we haven’t needed to supercharge our car. ( and we only charge to 80% )

If you're in Australia, it's entirely different to this video. We get a State rebate, depending on what State you live, but here in WA, there is a $3500 rebate which I got in my bank account within 3 weeks. We also get a federal rebate of 4.2c per kilometre travelled. My most recent rebate refund was $139, and it cost me a total of $133 to charge my Tesla Model 3 at home (Tesla wall charger on an EV plan through Synergy at 8c per kWh at Super-offpeak) over the first month alone. The government in Australia is paying me to drive an EV. Other than that, it is the best car I have ever driven, or owned. The software alone is at least 5 years ahead of the competition like BYD. Worth every cent.

[@charliequach6399]

The thing that disappoints me about using the Tesla nav system for road trips is when you arrive in the city you are traveling to. At the end of a road trip, Tesla always has you pulling in to the destination city with a very low state of charge. If that city doesn’t have superchargers, you end up with a bit of a problem driving around in the city you just drove to

[@tesladad07]

in the new market for a YLR. Been watching your videos for years now. Thanks for the great advice!

[@mockingbird187]

Honestly, as far as getting into a used Tesla, insurance and tires make me most nervous. I have a strong feeling that my increase in insurance cost is going to outweigh my fuel savings. This is another reason I want Tesla to make that $25k car... they should outfit it with reasonably sized 16" wheels with a very common sized tire with many cheap options. Plus they should be much cheaper to insure.

[@frenchydampier2209]

The best deal on used Tesla’s is Hertz They are currently selling 2 year old cars for as low as $16,000( after the $4000 used EV. Credit) That includes the balance of the 8 year 150,000 warranty.

[@frenchydampier2209]

Some of the newer Tesla superchargers have increased the max charging rate. From 250 to 323 . I believe the intention is to continue that increase. Second. My home charging rate is 14.57 /kwh with no increase for peak use. That’s not the lowest rate . The lowest rate is owning your own solar panels. But to make that viable you’d also need a back up battery. Right now the best bargain in home back up batteries is a TRSLA VERSION 3 with a built in inverter. ( an inverter converts the solar panels DC electric to the A/C your house uses)

[@SCtrojans4413]

My mobile charger with a 120V at home gets 2% of my 2023 M3 RWD battery per hour, which is more like 5 miles of range, compared to the rated 3 per hour. So charging overnight from like 9pm-6am would give me about 45 miles which is fine for even a 40-50 miles daily drive.

[@PayamJianTV]

Thanks for the valuable information. I am buying a Model Y long-range with 19" Wheel, and I drive for 100-120 miles daily. I hope I made the right choice.

It won’t be bad if you have home charging with level 2 charging level 1 will be near impossible.

​@tyyw10 or just charge at stations, which is what I am planning to do. I live in an apartment, but they don't have charging stations, so I'm going to use public stations.

[@rudykates3010]

How do you like it so far, I commute 120 miles round trip a day also

[@anthonyrefour3023]

FSD has been pretty awesome, just does some things that I wouldn't do as a driver. I used it on about a 100 mile road trip. Merged in front of a semi with less than a car length worth of space, little disconcerting. Other than that, on city streets it handled very well. Maintained good distance behind other cars, used turn signals, didn't hit the accelerator too hard to start, and did a fantastic job at maintaining lanes.

[@txtabby]

For charging, if you're able, use your solar panels to off-set the cost and charge only during the day. Charge at 22 amps to save wear on your wires, and you'll save big with the solar panels in conjunction with city power.

[@DavidNewman-k6z]

Thanks for the great presentation. I had my heart set on a Model Y. I live in New York State not too far from NYC. I pay $90 a month for insurance on my relatively new 32k Mazda for perspective. I shopped around for insurance and Erie came in at $380 per month! It may be that once affordable Tesla insurance plans are quickly no longer becoming affordable due to incredibly expensive repair costs and long wait times. I Landed on a KIA EV6 with insurance costs of $105 per month. No brainer for me. Makes me wonder if Tesla hasn't shot itself in the foot with its parts and repair service approach and infrastructure. You'd have to give me a Tesla for free for me to pay that much of a mark up in insurance. Not planning on moving to Texas anytime soon.

[@craiggill416]

Another thing you should mention in the insurance section, Tesla financing does not offer GAP insurance, but you can get GAP insurance through your auto insurance policy with a few vendors

[@jbhorner]

I would add a few to the list of the things: - Substantial depreciation of the vehicle. I've never owned a car that had its value drop as substantially as my Model Y in year 1. (Pandemic rebound, EV sales decline, Tesla price drops) - Generally refined features on other cars are not as refined on Teslas. In particular, rain-sensing windshield wipers, parking assist features, adaptive cruise control (random braking). - With respect to the "savings" comparison on Tesla's site (like you, I do not like that--marketing fluff), you rightfully brought up the tax credit. Another thing Tesla fails to show is the increase in insurance tied directly to their vehicles (and EVs in general). Likewise, there are some states that tax differently for EVs. Between those and other intangibles (cost of energy while traveling versus energy at home), I submit that the cost is higher from that point of view. Maintenance, however, would likely be lower than a traditional engine.

[@Peter-wp5vb]

I wonder if the higher insurance premiums and taxes and other EV-specific charges are offset by the savings in oil changes, brake replacements, spark plug replacements and other common ICE maintenance requirements

[@jbhorner]

@@Peter-wp5vb I think that would largely depend on the distance driven. In my case, no. I've paid $0 out of pocket for oil, brake, spark plugs for many years. Some of this was tied to the fact that I had two cars and would balance mileage across them. The other was that I traveled quite a bit which kept the price down. I also had brands that included maintenance over the first four years. (I don't know that they offer that now.) Insurance (lightly influenced by miles driven) was required throughout...and often with increases.

[@Peter-wp5vb]

@@jbhorner I’m more talking about large scale trends, not personal one-offs. If we include one-offs, I can bring in how many companies offer free EV charging. There are many variables

[@jbhorner]

@@Peter-wp5vb Right. And that is why their "calculator" to show savings is really nothing more than a marketing tool; it cherry-picks information and presents it as empirical. It's good it can be switched off, but when it's switched on it really isn't useful. My original point of insurance was that, like the "fuel savings," it is a monthly (or amortized monthly if premiums are paid every six months) cost. In fact, their estimated fuel savings on a base Model 3 is close to what my monthly amortized insurance increase amounted to over my prior car...which was also a late model electric vehicle.

[@tribalypredisposed]

The "gas savings" was super frustrating for me since I have only owned a car like two years of my life and I am 57, have not had a car since 2008 right now...my bicycles do not have gas engines. Would love it if Tesla let you just uncheck a box so you could see the real price.

[@darthsirrius]

I also found it really annoying, because I'm going from a smaller electric car to a Model Y. So I'm not saving any freaking gas. I ended up just going into that customizer and setting the gas cost to one cent so it put in $0 of gas savings but still included the tax credit.

[@tribalypredisposed]

@@darthsirrius I failed to find that customizer…

[@ChosenMJ]

It’s always been there. It is a slider and by default it’s in “potential savings.” Just slide it over to the other side and it’ll show you the real price.

[@leukion]

I’ve had my model Y for 11 months now. The range promised is not accurate, at all. This was a major blow to my new-car enthusiasm. But the main thing that bothers me about range is that I’m limited to only using 60% of the battery daily. I can only charge up to 80%, and when it goes down to 20%, many features don’t work. On top of that, I have to drive like a grandma, avoid aggressive, acceleration, be conservative with the AC, and anything else that drains the battery quickly.

@@icare7151 While I do not disagree that Tesla is overrated (and I have one), the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I've seen several videos that point out Rivian's flaws.

[@BlackhawkPilot]

Like any car, dive it like you stole it and you get poor mileage. The testing is done closer to 60mph not 70mph or 80mph like so many folks drive them. The largest efficient I see driving my BEV is weather. Above 80F or below 45F and mileage drops at least 10%.

@@RAH_Holdingsyeah you are lucky if you get 200. People focus only on their personal experiences. Mine looses battery just being parked because of the heat and the cabin overheat protection runs most of the day. It did make a little difference once I got my front windows tints to match the back ones. It’s only like $150. I live in Miami and work in Broward if I only had office I would charge at 80% and get back home at like 30% meaning I have to charge because it’s not enough for the next one. Many times I have to charge at 100 if I’m making client stops. The cool-aid sold about the miles didn’t taste very good once I got mine.

That equalled to the Chevy Silverado I had in gas. KZbin channels that sell the Tesla/ EV dream need to disclose all the cons not just the pros because it’s very biased.

The FSD cost being reduced in price and being made flexible is due to the change in business model required my the philosophy change going into FSD 12. Now, with AI, the way to make FSD more efficient and capable is to accumulate as large and broad a dataset/corpus as possible. Although passive gathering is possible, FSD provides intervention data and feedback which can also help training. I expect, especially as Tesla licenses FSD 12+ to other carmakers, that the recurring cost of FSD should go DOWN to encourage further corpus accumulation/enhancement to allow for AI to have more to work with, especially as geometries will be varied due to other vehicle sources.

Until now nobody can answer the question I've had for 5 and a half years. While you're driving in the city you do not want the lane to change. You want to be in control of your lane change not the car do it for you and the car the Tesla Model 3 constantly making a lane change and I have to turn it off in the software it cannot be done because I cannot find it anywhere. I know you are going to tell me you can do it by turning the left signal to the right. But there's only does it for one time and the next 200 ft it goes back to change lane again and you have to do it again and again throughout your travel in the city. It must have a function in the software in the city in the car who you could turn off lane change in the city completely. I don't ever want the car to change lane I wanted to do the change lane when I went to myself so it have to be away.

Why does it keep changing my preferred seat and steering wheel settings. My son-in-law just got a Chevy Bolt, and is basically a car with an electric motor.

That’s been tested and nothing to worry about

[@elishapiedu6215]

I love your videos and how you do your analysis. Fantastic ❤

Im looking to buy a M3 LR but waiting to see if the final rule for tax credits applies once that rule is active on July 5th

[@jasonwill6975]

I don't believe that Tesla builds the car specifically for you, but rather creates the cars based on data and then assigns you a car depending on your configuration.

The problem for me is the replacement cost for a new battery

[@superbigblack]

I'm doing only the mobile charger for now. My wife drives 14 miles a day and can charge the car 14 hours a night or 42 miles. She can charge at work and I can charge at my job for free if she let's me drive it. 😂

I want to buy a model 3 for taxi use . Should i buy the standard or the long range?

[@chunxinchen1938]

will the price drop in 2 months? im gonna buy it for school in august. Or i order right now?

[@B_r_u_c_e]

Excellent thorough advice. Thank you.

[@BigFunAgency]

It isn’t “the EPA’s promised range”. The EPA does NOT test any car. Tesla tests their own cars and reports the data to the EPA, so it’s Tesla’s promised range.

I ordered one during the 0.99% and still no delivery date, it keeps getting pushed 😔

As a former tesla model 3 owner I went back to ICE vehicle for multiple reasons. As much as I liked my tesla for the cool tech, there was a lot of downsides to it as well. One being the range isn’t as advertised at all, and after only 2 years of owning the car I lost over 20 km of range. Made me wonder if I kept the car for a couple of more years how much faster the battery would be degrading. That alone was scary to me. Other thing I didn’t like is that my phone randomly stopped working as a key and I was lucky because I had physical key cards with me, but definitely could of left me stranded if I didn’t have the physical cards. Also the car was a magnet for rock chips sadly, as well as curb rash!! Lastly, I just hated waiting for the car to charge for hours instead of just spending less than 5 min at a gas station… still appreciate this video as it really describes everything very well. Teslas are cool cars for sure, but I don’t think I would ever consider going back to one until the range will be at least 600-700 km which is what my ICE vehicle gives me!

[@ALazyImmigrantInUS]

If that is the case which phone you are using & how are you charging it ?

[@Ladyd860]

@@ALazyImmigrantInUS I have iphone 15 pro max and before that had 14 pro. So definitely wasn’t my phone I would say, just random glitching at times. The wireless chargers worked really well in a Tesla I have to admit.

Considering a used private seller Tesla as in Nevada there’s no sales taxes vs a dealer. I don’t qualify for the $4K tax credit as my income is higher than the threshold but do qualify for the $7500 on a new Tesla. 😊

super helpful video. thank you!!

[@MatthewColaluca]

[@JFJ_]

Best video so far , touching all the hot topics thank you! I’ll get one one day as well!

[@angoramarble4630]

i have a new standard range Tesla Model 3 and I have been getting 284 miles per charge

[@BnSBreaks]

Ryan your videos gave me all the information and confidence to take delivery on a model Y in May, and change to an EV lifestyle. Thank you and keep up the great videos

[@John-Edward]

Great job Ryan!!!

[@MiguePizar]

I hope that on July they have some discount or maybe the new long rage model 3 with tax incentives, I'd rather buy that one instead of the performance depending of it has incentives and is the new model. Thanks for the video.

[@darthsirrius]

I ordered my Model Y on Memorial day, it said June until 2 days ago, now it says July to August. Man do I wish there was an inventory one LOL

[@Warship63]

What if you can’t have home charger? Would you still be ok charging at Super chargers all the time?

[@RyanShawtech]

Yeah depending on your commute. Most people charge once a week and that really isn't that big of an issue. At home charging on a 12v charger will still get you some range durning the week if you need it.

The selfsales/service tools Tesla built needs to marry Salesforce with Xai...

[@maraoz]

[@NLRHog1994]

I really feel like the Rivian R2 and R3 are going to blow away Tesla once launched.

[@WildCat4329]

[@naeso9994]
