Why are you already committed to buying a used Tesla, years before your current one dies? Why make this comment at all?
Because I've test driven what's out there right now. Nothing comes close to my old Tesla and I'm not going to buy a new car from a different brand when used model 3 of the current models will be better value.
People genuinely are ignorant to how advanced the Tesla system is vs the competition. I'm very fortunate to live in dealership hotspot and I've driven plenty. Be it byd, kia, Hyundai, Volvo, polestar, mg etc. (Fun thing to do over weekend to kill an hour).
Tesla's from 2018 are genuinely better than competitors coming out right now. You add the better battery and heat pump from 2021 and your efficiency is basically as good as it gets. I've driven enough in my car to understand what makes for a good "range". It's all about that efficiency. The latest model 3 is a minor improvement, but still one I'll happily upgrade to in 5 years time or so when I get close to 170k miles.
But hey, that cybertruck! Or earlier models panel gaps! It's such useless noise bashing what is the best car anywhere near that price.
Maybe Merc's, lucid and Rivian have it beat, but they aren't available here or more than double the cost...
I hope it makes sense. I get outrage at Musk coming from valid places, but I'm not letting a twat ruin something for me. He has more money that god, me buying used car has next to no impact. So why bother?
