    Thanks again Ryan for the airtime on the channel, it's great to share the ownership experience with your subscribers. Feel free to ask me any questions about the Model Y, Ranger etc. Thanks Everyone.

    Best of both worlds I have a lifted jeep wrangler. Its noisy, feel all the bumps drinks fuel like its going out of fashion.

    Appreciate your assessments Mike! Completely understand that you need the 4WD for multiple use cases. It’s so obvious now that Australia needs options for folk like u (and so many others) in terms of rugged 4WD EV pickups/utes. Thanks for sharing your experiences with your Ranger and also your Tesla Mike!

    Great real world discussion Ryan and Mike 👍. Hilux and Ranger remain Australia's most popular new vehicle and family car. It will be interesting to see if the popularity of these Utes continues now that the ATO instant-asset write-off has ended and years long wait-list catches up with demand. Ryan appeared to be enjoying himself in the passenger seat of the Ranger as they rolled-coal through the Aussie bush at 8x the price of the Tesla 😅

    Thanks Ryan , great video. Really interesting for me as i am about to be in the same boat. Will have a Tesla as our main daily and shorter trips, but our other car is a diesel SUV (Jeep GC) which we will use for longer trips as we often tow a small caravan. This seems like a good balance for us at the moment until something more capable comes along on the EV front.

    As a Tesla and Ranger owner, I can relate. Except the Tesla now does nearly 25000km a year and the Ranger lucky to do 7000km. Both very good cars in their classes. We have the 2l Biturbo engine which gets low 7s on the highway. Nothing on the Model 3 for performance, technology and running costs.
    Can relate to the indictors!

    • @mikeboudrie6585
      @mikeboudrie6585 6 місяців тому

      Yep... I have to do a mental reset each time I jump between cars. 7L is not too bad for the size. The 3.2 eats it up.

  • @Buzzinga248
    @Buzzinga248 6 місяців тому

    The only problem is that Tesla has gone too minimalistic in its one screen and no buttons,and it is sooo ugly. I really do want to go electric but unless the ranges go up more and the prices go down it is difficult for a large number of people to even consider an EV. I think Tesla has the best computer systems for their cars, but they don’t cater for loads of people with poor towing capacity, and as I said the huge lack of buttons and a driver or heads up screen. I think everything in one screen is dangerous.

    • @mikeboudrie6585
      @mikeboudrie6585 6 місяців тому

      There's quite a few people with this view and I completely understand it as it was something I had a level of concern about also when we got the Model Y, however it's just a learning curve getting used to the interface. Once you're familiar it's actually completely fine. And as for looks I suppose that's completely subjective, my bet is that they will still look good in 10 years and most other cars will look dated.
