Disappointed with Tire Wear & Roof Issues

The Model S has great performance, but the tires wear out too quickly—I have to change them almost every year. Also, my roof cracked unexpectedly, which was a big disappointment for such an expensive car. Maintenance is more than I bargained for.

Best car I have ever owned

Got car in Dec 2021. Build quality was great. some squeeking from back seats fixed with gaffers tape. Driver car handle broke and was fixed with a few visits to Tesla. Had car xpel wrapped in front and ceramic coated. One nit pick.. rims scrape easily if you brush a curb since the rim and tire are at the same depth (Pirelli tires) $150 dollars to repair each time. . Full self driving is fantastic.. the car takes me anywhere with very little oversite. I have solar panels and a charger at home, free costs to charge the car thanks to the solar panel. I added an ecohitch and can take my bike (or e-bikes) with a Thule bike rack. Car looks fantastic. Full AI driving is coming which will make the already good driving system better human like driving.

This car is anything but a "one-trick-pony"...

2023 Tesla Model S Plaid 4dr Sedan AWD (electric DD)

The speed is what gets all the headlines, but just as important, the Plaid is an amazingly comfortable, quiet, practical cruiser/daily driver, with an astoundingly good audio system and some of the best in-cabin technology on the market. It's difficult to imagine what anyone could need in a daily driver that this car cannot deliver (except of course V-8 "vroom-vroom" sounds, but I don't miss that at all). The fact that it's roughly half the price of comparable performance sedans, EV or otherwise, is the icing on the cake!

Well its quiet, easy to go warpspeed fast and and worth every bit. A built monster GP superbike got left in the rear view mirror at a stoplight while steering with one hand while the stereo played Pancini. What can I say? Elon Musk is mental.
