    Do you agree or disagree with these "mistakes"? Which ones did I miss? Let me know!

      The Wall Charger is awesome to have. I don’t regret buying it. Some of us don’t have the option to charge overnight.

      I'll throw in my two cents about waving vs. not waving at other Tests passersby. I live in Austin and my zip code/area has the highest number of Tesla owners in the city. Driving my neighborhood Randall's only a couple miles away, I pass by no less than 10-15 Tesla's in either direction. And no one waves. I think because there are so many of us in the area, that everyone is so desensitized to so many passing Tesla's and don't bother anymore. I do find that when I'm in area in which there's a much smaller ratio of Tesla drivers on the road, people are more likely to wave back at me. But I think it's blasphemy to not wave back, at the very least, at your passing sister (or brother) Tesla in like model and color! Where are my blue model 3s at?! 🤚🏽

    Here is a virtual Tesla wave from Australia. Thanks for the videos, I have been getting a lot out of them.

    Love the waving comment. As a Peloton owner also, I love “waving” at other users. We are a community!

    Realistically if you are trying to save the cost of a wall charger I wonder if you've bought the wrong vehicle.
    In Australia a M3 is around $70k so $500 (plus $500 install) is nothing. The convenience of just being able to plug in with no faffing around far exceeds the cost.

    Keep tires properly inflated.
    I regretted buying FSD a little, but now that I have the beta, I'm loving it more than ever. Living in Denver, it is great having the lane change option.

    Wall connector was my beat decision. 50% faster than the mobil connector. I charge two teslas and wall connector does the job

  • @theleeoverstreet
    @theleeoverstreet 2 роки тому +1

    I agree on all points! Waving still makes a lot of sense here in Tuscaloosa, Alabama because it's still a shock to see another one! LOL
    The only reason we could afford to get the wall connector is that a close friend of mine is an electrician, and we only needed about $200 in hardware. Also, it just looks cool as s#!t in the open carport. Might be showing off a bit. 😄⚡

    Great list. Especially the Tesla wall charger. Every new owner I see believe they absolutely need this to charge at home 😔

    • @Sibs
      @Sibs  2 роки тому +1

      Definitely! I wish Tesla educated new buyers a bit better on that

      A Charging point, whether that be from Tesla or 3rd party although not required would still be highly recommended. You wouldn't find an EV owner in Europe constantly charging their car via a plug socket. The other thing to bare in mind then is the fact that the Tesla charging point is roughly 50% cheaper than other 3rd party ones.

    I live on a dead-end street of 54 homes, and there are 3 Model S's (including mine), 3 Model 3's, 2 Y's, an X, and a Roadster (also mine) ... beyond our street, I can't go more than a 1/4 mile without seeing AT LEAST another Tesla ... I waved 8 years ago when they were rare, but not any more

    👋 lol. Man, I gotta give you some smoother b roll of the plug since I have it. Looking at that shaky b roll is making me cringe lol. I'll email you

    Chapter "Understanding the charging landscape" is incorrectly named.
    It should be " *NOT** understanding the charging landscape". Look:
    Buying FSD, mistake
    Buying the Tesla Wall Connector, mistake
    Trusting Autopilot too much, mistake
    Parking at Superchargers, mistake
    Charging to 100% at SCs, mistake
    Understanding the charging landscape, is the solely not mistake on the list
    Driving too fast, mistake
    Worrying about "Miles Remaining", mistake
    Not waving! mistake

    You have 24,000 subscribers. So you probably wanna speak the best English you can.
    Tip: I don’t say “I myself…”
    Check out the beginning of your video, just say
    “I….”

      I don't always script my videos, and this was one of those cases. I try to keep them more conversational anyway, so I don't always use "proper" grammar. I just talk like I would to a friend.
