    FINALLY got my hands on my first tesla model 3 awd with 0 APR on Saturday and i’m very impressed! Now I can watch your videos and actually apply them to real life 😅🎉

    I took advantage of the 0% APR 2 weeks ago and went with the Model Y, as I wanted something a little bigger than the Model 3. Currently, it's in the shop, as I have ceramic coating applied to the entire car for $1300. I also took advantage of an email Tesla sent me about window tinting with a partnership with Xpel. I'm having my driver and passenger side window tinted 20% using Xpels best product for $250. I also have a few accessories from Tesstuf waiting to be installed, like the screen protector and tilting mount, cup holder, etc. I've already driven it close to 1500 miles, and I've been enjoying it the entire time. The car is actually very fun to drive.

      That's awesome. When I get mine in Februrary, I'm going to have PPF installed on the whole car. I'm already thinking about tinted windows and screen protectors for the touch screens.

    Just got a M3P about a week ago, white on white, paid for the FSD to get 0% apr. I really like it coming from a old prius is a crazy nice upgrade. I am having an issue where half the time I get in the screen won't turn on and takes like 10 to 15 minutes to work. I have it scheduled for service but they can't look at it for over a month. Thankfully they have the buttons on the head liner to put it in gear or i wouldn't even be able to drive it. Sure hope they can take care of it.

    WIth the previous generation Model 3 you could hear peoples phone conversations clearly from outside the car, even with windows up. This was due to the speakers not being insulated in the doors and echo'ing through the sheet metal. Has this been rectified on the Highland? This is not normal for all cars. For example the speaker backs are insulated in a Macan are insulated and the cabin is soundproof to people standing outside the car. Thank you for checking on this.

    I just recently received my new Tesla Model 3 AWD last week. Thanks to your checklist PDF I bought, I was able to find several stuck dust points, a couple paint chips, and a wheel dent on the metal... it's also a downside, as I now have to wait several weeks until I will drive my car, as I have to wait for the service appointment before getting my car front PPF'ed/silicon coated.
    I was thankful to get free FSD as an employee, 0% APR, and a 3-month-logged inventory vehicle with the same specs for several thousand dollars less. Even so, as I do state incentive research, I am realizing that I could have very easily saved $7,500 more, but that I had to apply for a program BEFORE I received the vehicle. Very sad... So make sure to CHECK STATE INCENTIVES BEFORE BUYING!!!
    Also, I know you keep mentioning PPF'ing your whole car was cheaper than an official front PPF. For me, the front PPF's over here cost $1800, but I have not checked yet what DIY full cost would be. I'm just super nervous to screw up if I do that option... I'm literally ALWAYS the dude that puts a phone screen protector on and can't remove several air bubbles ._.

      This is definitely me. I know it's going to cost me a bunch of money, but I'm going to have a professional install the PPF on my new M3. I just don't think I can do it. I'm also not a patient person when it comes to that kind of stuff.

    Just ordered a Model 3 last week actually! The deals they got going here in Australia are pretty solid atm. Most of us down here use Novated leasing to buy our cars as we pay for the costs and payments of the vehicle before tax, and Tesla just announced a pretty killer cashback offer for those who get their cars by 20th Dec.
    Fingers crossed mine arrives in time. Ordered a Quicksilver SR, super keen!

    • @JoseMartinez-vw1zd
      @JoseMartinez-vw1zd 2 місяці тому +1

      Basically, choosing the white paint ($1k) pushed the price of the car over $55k thus losing the $7500 ev tax credit. $7500 + $1000 = $8500. Assuming you qualify for the tax credit.

    • @pucie_boi
      @pucie_boi 2 місяці тому

      @JoseMartinez-vw1zd oh... nah you both are wrong, tesla made the deal that the paint job is free if you take fsd. (Fsd also being tacked on outside of the price of the vehicle). you can still qualify if you make less than $150k single or $300k married. At least when I signed the paperwork

    It's a Model Y with the 0% APR agreement.
    I'm still very sceptical for this, but my friends got the Model 3 2019 and 2022, and i just love them.

      When I financed I didn’t pay until I was there on delivery day. Also (don’t quote me) if you find issues within like 50 miles or like 3 days (something like that) you can take it back to get fixed. You can also decline delivery.

    • @liam1902
      @liam1902 Місяць тому

      If you typically switch cars pretty frequently and are worried about the depreciation with owning a Tesla, then that's a reason people lease a Tesla. However with Tesla, you cannot buy out your lease or extend the lease with the same car. I would finance a Tesla if you get an extremely good financing deal on it while also getting other great discounts, incentives, and all (tax credit, discounts, etc). Tesla just increased their Rewards Program to give US buyers $1000 USD off a 3/Y and $2000 USD off a S/X/CT. Similarly for Canadian buyers, they can get $2600 CAD discount when purchasing a Y/S/X.

    I actually got my Tesla Y 24 yesterday and it’s such an amazing vehicle. I love the car so much and it’s been amazing for my first car.
    However….
    I had the WORST Experience EVER! You had mentioned how getting a Tesla is easy and a great experience but it wasn’t for me… My tesla advisor was the WORST. He wasn’t helping me with the troubles I was having at all. He would only answer 1 questions a day and he kept ignoring me. It took 7 days for anyone from tesla to actually help me with everything. I had to miss 2 delivery days because of their inability to help me. I requested nonstop calls and requests for help and they didn’t call me once at all.
    It honestly is pretty sad that I spent $50,000+ on a vehicle and in return I get trash customer support. It was my first vehicle too so I was super hyped and excited but that whole experience ruined everything and had me so stressed out.
    Other than that I do wish ppf was less expensive. I know you said DIY KITS are less expensive but they still are pretty expensive. At least for me. I kinda wish I was able to get a roll of PPF and do it myself. I’d rather pay for a roll and have extra for cheaper
