      Absolutely. I think Tesla's biggest problem for the past 6 years is so many people simply have no clue. This is on Musk and Tesla. (My neighbors are still waiting for my Tesla to need a new battery or catch fire, but they know all about the E Hummer. I thought maybe they were big GM fans. Nope. TV commercials during Dodgers baseball games.)
      I also drive in Los Angeles. Trip out to LAX in heavy traffic? With FSD? No problem.
      I've been driving FSD for four years and knew very little about the standard features on every Tesla. FSD has really arrived. I use it every day. It's brilliant. You do have to pay attention. What can happen is you could just be watching and trust it a bit too much. My Model Y drove right over a huge rock, cost me $1200 for a new wheel and tire. I watched it do it. Early in the morning, but obvious. But this is rare. It is very calming to drive a Tesla long distances. I've gone coast to coast twice. A couple I met yesterday went though Canada with theirs.
      If you're a nerd? Absolutely spend the extra $8k. If you mostly just drive to work and places you're familiar with, and feel like you don't want it... then don't get it. However, when they give you a free month, do some driving, go someplace that will take at least an hour. Experience it. Soon this is going to be standard.
      Me? I'm a nerd but I can also get distracted and miss my exit, so I enjoy it keeping me from making those mistakes. The Robotaxi event I found slightly curious. That week I drove about 300 miles all FSD, including right past the Warner Brothers Studio Lot where the event was held.
      I paid $70k for my Model Y. I knew it was a the peak. No problem. I wanted to be part of the experiment. Do pay attention to the referral information. I took my friend into to the Tesla store in a mall. The clerk asked why he wanted to buy a Tesla. He pointed at me and said, "Because my neighbor won't stop talking about it!" The clerk didn't say, "Oh then he's your referral."
      And talk to Tesla owners. Almost everyone of them will say it's like driving a brand new car every day. For me this is four years.

    I've never gotten anything close to 276 miles of range at 70 mph in my 2020 Model Y Long Range (dual motor). 3.85 mi/kWh? I get more like 2.4. Not complaining. What I have done when I wanted to drive routes where there are no Superchargers, is I slow down to about 50, pull out of everyone else's way, and turn off the AC (this was in the Navajo/Hopi Nation on a 100°F(38C) day.) Instead of arriving (or not) at Holbrook, AZ with -15 miles of range, I got there with +15 mile of range. I charged up, then unplugged and crawled in the back for a very comfortable night. Better than any hotel or motel, unless you want a shower. No one gives a Tesla parked near a Supercharger a second look.
    The other thing to consider is ideally you only charge up to 80% and don't go below 20%, but I regularly go to 15%. So right there you're only using 60% of the potential battery charge. For my desert run I did charge in Blandings, Utah to 99 or 100%.
    What's really neat is that by the second year the battery will have lost about 2% of it's capacity. This will be the biggest drop over the lifetime of your Tesla. I didn't and you won't even notice. After that it's pretty consistent. There are 2012 Model Ss with 300,000 miles on them, original battery. And Supercharger stops are a chance to relax. I'll sometimes go for a 150kW charging location instead of the faster 250kW so I can take a nap, or go to a store.
    For my 2020 Model Y LR that I paid $70k for I paid this year for registration $650. (I guess I'm paying more because of my orginal purchase price.) These fees should be included in range cost calculations because gas prices including road taxes include them. It wouldn't matter to me if they came out close or my Tesla cost me more, it's such an amazing car that it'd be worth it.

    I live in a condo and it will be a couple of years before they can install EV charging. Since March I supercharge. I live in Phoenix and now that it is cooler I’m able to charge once a week and in summer I need to twice a week still cheaper than my Corolla. I supercharge in the early morning where it is only .23 / kWh. In winter I charge from 30 - 85 percent costs about 9.30 and in summer usually between 10 & 20 percent to 85. No big deal for me. I’m used to it now.

We pay A$0.69/kWh (US$0.40/kWh) for Supercharging and we pay A$1.55/L (so about US$4/Gal) on a cheap day (our fuel prices fluctuate weekly in cycles) so, even on the cheapest of fuel days the most expensive supercharging smashes the cost of petrol. It's a no-brainer.

    Good recap Ryan. For a simplified comparison to gas, for an efficient EV like a Model 3, I take the all in $/kW (total electric bill $ with taxes, fuel and transmission surcharges, etc.) and take that x10 to compare to local gas $. For example we are around 11 cents/kWh all in rn in KS (allot of wind power). That compares roughly to $1.10/gal gas.

    • @chrisbrzon3917
      @chrisbrzon3917 2 місяці тому +1

      The math is ~335 Wh/mi , so 1 kWh lasts ~ 3 miles. A comparable gas car runs 30 mpg. 30/3 ~ 10 x factor electricity $/kWh to $/gal. equivalent.

      In Calif , Home charging is 25c a KWH off peak . ( some places 36c a KWH at home )
      Thus energy cost of EV is 8.3 Cents a mile...to 12c a mile.
      Calif gas is $3.75 a gallon.
      30 mpg Corolla equals 12.5 cents a mile....
      Downtown SanFrancisco ..15 cents a mile at $4.50 a gallon.

      Just a friendly advice. The Tesla has a lot of distractions and the software is very buggy. It frequently makes violent manoeuvres and demands your attention. I don’t know how experienced your daughter is, but it can be ha handful even for a very experienced driver when it starts acting up. It may work ok in a warm climate with little rain, but if you live in a place where the roads are slippery and the cameras get constantly fouled by whet roads, snow etc. I would consider a car that is easier to drive.

    Tesla cars are not made to order. They keep the costs down by only having a few options on the cars. Once you order you are then allocated a car matching your required specs, which has already been manufactured. If you order a spec and there is no more cars to be allocated you then join the que for that spec, so as they roll of the production line they are allocated in order of the que.

    Slower charging above 80% is NOT designed to preserve long-term battery health. That's just your guess, and it's wrong. That is true of NMC batteries (they recommend charging to only 80% for local driving to preserve the battery) but not lithium batteries. In all batteries, electrons have a molecular parking space--a physical location where they are kept. Compare this to a giant empty parking lot. The first cars in can park anywhere. The last 10% to 20% of cars (electrons) have to drive around for a while to find a space. That's it. No other reason.

    The cost of both electricity and gas in your area makes moving make sense. Less than $3 per gallon here, and regular electricity is .12 cents kwh. Off peak EV charging rate for home is .03 cents kwh.
    Also the 80% suoercharging rule is plenty in California. California has 3 times the land area as Georgia, but about 15 times the supercharger stations. We have large swaths of land with no superchargers, especially in the southern portion of the state.
    It's all getting there though.

    I'm paying 11 cents per kilowatt hour and I don't even notice a difference in my electric bill even with two EVs. By contrast in the summer when my home AC is on my electric bill will double compared to winter. But even better is no oil changes and all the stuff they talk you into when you get your oil changed. That's the big savings for me. We got a Tesla Model 3 in Jan. of 2022 and still have had no repairs or what could be considered maintenance. Washer fluid is the only consumable other than electricity. Even the tires lasted longer than the same tire did on my old Cadillac ATS, about a third longer. So the stories I hear about EV tire wear seem like a myth to me. I got myself a Model Y in 2023 so we are all electric now.

    If you live in a state where Tesla can't have dealerships like Texas remember you will have to pay tax when you register the car. That was about $3,500 for me so plan ahead so you have the money available. When I got my loan that amount was not included like it would have been at a dealership. However, Tesla did send me all the paperwork mostly already filled out so the process was quick and easy and I walked out of the county tax office with my license plates in hand. Took about 15 minutes with an appointment in Denton county.

    Did he mention the very low second hand car value and the replacement of new battery cost $18k-$20k (when going into 9th year owning the car) really suck big time.
    The small plus side-No doubt with an EV, you save time and money compared to gas car in terms of car services, also the lower cost for the energy. But still, if you go on a super long trip, for gas car you only need to stop once and 7-8 minutes to refill the gas tank, whereas the EV it would be 2 stops and each time 15 minutes? Some EV owners said so. Anyhow, with all the Tesla hype or commotion, I kinda feel the urge to get one myself.

    I charge it at home using the official L2 Tesla charger connected directly to the breaker, generally i start charging it at around 20%. The tesla app estimates 4hrs for 100%
    In reality, it gets to 90% within 2.5hrs, then takes another 1.5hrs to get to 99%, then another 45m/1.5hrs to get that final 1% for a full 100%

    They want $707 for 2nd year, not $400. Also, Tesla Insurance was $153 per month for six months, then jumped to $216 for reasons unknown to me. 20,000 trouble free miles. Very happy.

      The problem with that math is that your are charging beyond 80% and draining the battery below 20%. This is expressly against the owners manual instructions. If you read your OM, you can only use 60% of the battery for driving. Charging over 80% shortens the battery life. Draining the battery beyond 20% shortens the battery life. So in reality you can only drive about 180 miles of average driving before you need to recharge. I see video after video of folks overcharging and over discharging the battery. Claiming long ranges without a clue that they are wearing the battery out. Considering the cost of a battery replacement, you'd think common sense would apply but sadly most are clueless or don't care.

I can buy a piece of bread for $5 today and next week it's gonna be $2. But it's still bread the value doesn't change what it is. If you do plan on selling the car after 5 years it's not going to make that much of a difference between an undervalued tesla vs regular used value anyways, difference is just a few thousand dollars off

      @@Shmack_ What state of charge was your pack in at the time? If you're only getting 70kW it's most likely because you're likely at a high state of charge (i'm guessing at around 50-70% or so by the looks of things)
      250kW is the maximum discharge rate for Long Range cars. Standard Range cars top out at 175kW. Both will generally hold that for about the first 7-10% of the charge. They'll gradually ramp down when the pack gets fuller. 70kW at say, 50-70% is about right for the charging curve.
      The other cause could be because you arrived at a supercharger without navigating to it. I know, sounds weird, but navigating to a supercharger on the MCU (the screen in front of you) causes the car to enter a pre-conditioning mode, where it gets the battery to the temperature it likes to be in to charge. If you forget to do this, especially on a cold day, the car will siphon off some the power from the charger to heat the pack up to the right temperature. The battery usually likes to sit at between 40-45Deg C (about 80-100 Deg F or so) when DC fast charging, so if the pack is too cold, it'll heat it up at the charger. If you're going to a Supercharger, even if you know where the charger is, it's always a good idea to navigate to it to get the battery ready to go.

      Alan, nothing like this is never perfect. One can have a so-called ideal definition of a “perfect” system, but more often than not that exists in one’s mind but not in reality. Every mechanical and electrical device will eventually fail, and one modeled after human behaviors can eventually encounter some random variation or circumstance that is not well modeled or never been seen,(like being hit by a meteorite.) So, the real question to ask is what is the probability of FSD crashing and you dying or being injured or just damaging the car compared to the average person. If it is better, (fewer of those outcomes) then you’re better off with FSD. Then you might factor in the convenience or value of being driven by someone or something, which is a separate personal choice.😢
