    I just found a 2020 Model 3 Long Range with only 22,000 miles and it has lost so much value, together with Labor Day discounts, that it has become a sensible option over a new standard range. Faster and more range, vehicle was cared for and I got a good deal on it for monthly payments. Much of the factory warranty is still there!

      @@Brooklyn727 agreed, but if range is required for commuting it's something to consider. Older Teslas also have less range from the factory, add on 10-15% battery degradation, and charging to only 80-90% capacity daily. It adds up. Not saying old Tesla's aren't worth buying, but it's a math equation for a few like myself with long commutes.

    1) Most people won’t want to buy a 2 owner Tesla.
    2) Most won’t want to buy a high mileage Tesla when you’re done with it.
    3) Battery degradation is real with higher miles.
    I’d personally lease a Tesla and be covered under warranty the entire time I’m using it. Then when the lease is done, id get into another lease. Worry free and hassle free without having to find a 3rd owner/buyer when I’m ready for a new car.

      Most people sell their EVs their batteries are failing, from abuse...Battery degradation,---- if you continue using the supercharger method you will increase speed at which your batteries degrade . You will start losing range at even a faster rate than normal resulting in more frequent charges and even more time lost and finally battery replacement and believe me you don't want that $$$$$. Even I know that !! Read the manual, it's amazing what you'll learn.

    2. Teslas have substandard build quality when they're NEW. A few thousand miles later, they're going to be WORSE. And we won't talk about any aftermarket mods screwing things up.
    3. The price you pay, WILL NOT include features the original owner paid for. You get to pay fill price for those again...OVER AND ABKVE what you pay for the car.

    I feel sorry for electric car drivers and future owners. They will simply have to learn the hard way .. as I did. These things are a huge hassle, all those lost hours sitting in those charging stations, huge anxiety, plus a outrageous expense in the long run. Good luck trying to sell a used Electric car with wore out battery modules. You'll find out nobody wants to pay the ridiculous price of batteries ... Batteries are very ... very expensive to replace ( thousands and thousands of dollars) ... and make no mistake, you will be replacing them. These batteries are highly toxic to our environment, with a high potential for disaster to our surroundings. DON'T FOOL YOURSELF and CERTAINLY, DON'T LISTEN TO A SALESMAN , ... LITHIUM BATTERIES ARE NOT GREEN CLEAN ENERGY BY ANY MEANS! ...
    I wish I knew all this before I bought my car . Do your homework before buying !

Defective Toyota paint job. $11,000 for repairs. Battery cells bad and other weird problems. 2021 Rav4 Hybrid $40,000 destroyed by near headon collision with a 27 yr old man not paying attention. Beer near the accident. The vehicle was 3 months old. Destroyed. We all lived. No lawsuit. He was poor. I know Elon Musk wants to address the battery issues.

    For a smooth ride, I went with wheel spacers, 20mm back , 15mm front. I noticed a big difference on a smoother ride. There is more of a bounce when going over bumps. It must be the wheel width that have it a springy ride.
