It’s just stupid good

I bought a model 3 in July. It’s the base model —$40k. It is the future for all the positive review reasons given elsewhere. The simplest I can put it is this. Have you ever bought a car and then longer you own it the better it gets? Me neither. Until now. With the latest software update, I picked up ten more miles of charge and improvements in numerous features from wipers to music streaming. No one is even close to Tesla in driving the future of the automobile and the Model 3 is at the front of that future.

We got this car having never test driven a Tesla as we are environmentally conscious and have solar panels on our house and were looking to go electric. In my opinion it is the only electric car that you can truly road trip with given the 300+ mile range and supercharger network that is unmatched by other auto companies at this time. Hopefully that changes. Considered a plug-in hybrid but this does have the added advantage of lower maintenance and hopefully longevity. We have always driven Accords/Camrys, so this is definitely an upgrade. It is wonderful getting 130 miles to the gallon equivalent, and love the fact that the crash testing results are so high (plus the accident avoidance even though we didn't purchase Autopilot). Didn't expect so many people to ask me about my car but it's nice explaining all the advantages of an electric car to them as most people are really worried about charging issues which I have found to be minimal with this car. I have only supercharged once on a long road trip; otherwise just use a dryer plug at a relatives house or hotel overnight. We have 9,000 miles on the car in 6 months. The driving experience is great and the tech is a nice touch, but these reasons were at the bottom of our list when it came to a purchase decision. I think the Edmunds review about the touchscreen is a bit overblown. After 2 weeks of driving the car, you basically have all your settings saved; Spotify is now available as well. You get used to 1 pedal driving pretty quickly as well and the last update to come will now regenerate the car to a stopping position. I hope the purchase cost continues to come down for electric cars as it seems this is the main downside (long-term cost of ownership is more appealing though).

So much fun to drive. "Fuel" costs me $9.00 to drive 300mi with full "tank" every morning. No maintenance at 28K mi yet. The safest car out there. No keys, can set inside temperature from the app while car is in the garage. No oil stains in garage. Security systems that records video if somebody approaches the car. Autopilot greatly reduces stress especially in traffic, still need to pay attention, but it's getting better. Car updates via wifi, one of the updates made my car faster (top speed and acceleration), another made it charge faster at Supercharger which are plentiful along major highways. So my Model 3 is better then when I got it.

My first electric vehicle, and I LOVE it! Looks great, a blast to drive, one of the safest cars on the road, amazing technology, all for a great price especially after incentives..and bonus that it saves me hundreds of dollars a month cause I’m not buying gas! Mine was built in April of 2019 and the fit and finish is perfect and no problems at all with the car. After over 24k miles, I can’t wait to get in it every day. I’ve owned over a dozen sports cars in my life and this is my favorite by far.

Most Satisfying Purchase

This vehicle will change the way you think about driving. Like switching from your flip phone to your smart phone, this vehicle represents the next leap in technology. The user experience is unique and the car is fun to drive. The technology and software far exceed the competition, and with over the air software updates, your car is always improving and adding new features. I would buy this car all over again given the chance.
