This grandmother loves her Model 3!

After owning a Leaf for 8 years, I was ready to move up to an electric car that I could drive for long trips. My Model 3 is fun to drive, even for a grandmother who is mostly interested in its practicality. My 17 month old grandson loves the sunroof over his car seat. He happily watches the view and doesn’t complain, even when we are stuck in traffic. His car seat and both of his parents can be buckled in the back seat when we all need to fit in one car. I hope to never go back to gas stations or oil changes!

Service SUCKS

Car ride is stiff, interior makes a lot of noise. Blinkers on these are wonky and like to shut off prematurely. Cruise control is one of the worst ones ive ever used, self braking constantly. Biggest hang up is service. 1 hour job, tell me to expect to leave it 7 hours come fully charged and they can't let you charge it at the actual tesla center. Well when service is 2 hours away it turns into 11 hours to fix a simple trunk gap. They also take forever to send you registration/title. My temporary tag expired, called the dmv and Tesla hadn't submitted anything to the dmv 45 days in. Car was fully paid off. I traded it in and both me and another car dealer are waiting for tesla to do the registration/title still. They're not ready for the amount of owners they took on.

Value for Performance and Efficiency

2023 Tesla Model 3 Performance 4dr Sedan AWD (electric DD)

This car is pure joy and fun. Hard to match the value and performance of the vehicle with ICE cars. It will just go, and go lightning fast as simple as possible. No need to worry about burning though ga$$ as you step on it. Just plug it in and you get to do it again and again for a fraction of the cost of a performance gas car. Your range will suffer a bit when driving like this, but you have the option to maintain efficiency in chill driving mode. Works well as a commuter car, with a more efficient performance aspect when you want it. Step on the gas pedal and that instant torque is unlike anything i have ever felt. Handling and ride is pretty comparative to some german sports cars in my opinion, even though it may feel a bit on the hefty side because of the battery. But the battery weight placed well in the vehicle allows it to be more nimble than you think. No transmission upshifts or spooling is something you will enjoy if you don't mind the charging.

Car is full of rattle

My car is full of rattles and squeaks. I have been to service center 6 times now and they still are not able to get rid of it. The car does not have a Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert which should be standard for such a luxury tier pricing car. It does not have Apple Carplay or Android Auto either. FSD does not work very well and it is overpriced.
Okay Tech. Garbage car

I'm thoroughly unimpressed by the Model 3. There are 4 things going for the Tesla. The charging network (will not be an issue moving forward with all manufacturers choosing the NACs charger), the OTA firmware updates, the phone key and software and the space utilization in the trunk and frunk. Everything else is just so bad! The ride is harsh. There is a lot of cabin noise. The Tesla is the epitome of distracted driving with non tactile touch input. Two highly overloaded buttons do little while driving. The voice controls are a joke (as in every car I have used). The smart features are technically very impressive but simply not good enough. The auto lock button takes too long, the smart headlights take too long to go back after dipping. Two years in and still get phantom braking in Adaptive cruise control. Takes too long to brake in cruise control. Too long to speed up after stopping at a traffic light. Wipers can never be set on auto because it uses cameras instead of rain sensors so it starts going wild in bright daylight. Too slow changing speed when it rains. When I'm driving on country roads in the night, the right camera never works. Messages flash in small font on the display. No Android Auto. I was hoping when I bought it that I could side trade into a Ioniq 5 or an EV6 in a couple of years, but the value of the Model 3 has plunged and the Korean cars have depreciated much slower. I don't know what my next car will be, but for sure it won't be a Tesla. Update: Sold the Model 3 at a loss. Leased the Ioniq 5 Limited. Complete opposite experience of the Tesla. Absolutely love the car and ride. Tesla is just so much better in the phone software and profiles. Single Pedal driving on Tesla is much better. No OTA firmware updates. That's about it. *Every* other thing is just so much better.
