Dude, you better slow down so you have more content! 🤣 I’m really enjoying this series. It’s crazy that an insurance company would write off a car that can literally be fixed in your garage. (I wouldn’t know how to do it, but you’re amazing!) I hope your watch hours are climbing fast man!
Thanks Dave!! Yeah haha, the front end is awesome on these cars! Right??? It’s crazy how insurance companies right cars off. Although, shop rates are crazy expensive. I bet a certified body shop costa $100+ per hour!
Someday this would be a fun project… except it would be impossible to give them to family like you are because my family either would rather have a gas car or just strongly dislikes teslas and all evs. Nice work! I come here from wham baam and I see that they really do total cars for the slightest reason, as @thedrivendave said.
@@WinstonsGarage I am thinking about buying on hail damaged off of coparts. I don't mind driving a hail damaged car but didn't know how to get prices on parts.
Hey Shane! Yes! That’s exactly what I do. I copy down all the parts I need using EPC.tesla.com (don’t quote me on the website but it’s called something like that. Then I show the parts list to my service advisor and they do an over the counter sale for the parts. Keep in mind it varies service center to service center however it is in their policy they have to sell parts to people. (I think)
okay thank you! have they largely had stuff in stock or order them? im about to rebuild a MS and was going to stop by my local SC. Keep up the great vids!@@WinstonsGarage

$207 cad/hour in Montreal, equivalent to $156.51 USD.

Change family 😅. Seriously, totaling cars by insurance means all our premiums go up 😢
Did your dad want blue?
Or was that not a major factor in choosing this car lol.
Nice video!
Hahaha he could care less about the the color or specs haha
How do you feel about hail damaged Teslas? Does the glass cost a lot?
Hey! Yeah, glass is expensive. If you have tesla do it it costs a lot.

Hey man im curious as to how you ordered parts from tesla? did you just drive in to the service center? I thought they dont sell parts to anyone.

@@shanethomas5327 They usually order them, it takes around 2-3 weeks so make sure you make a list of exactly what you need and do a massive order!
