I gotta stop procrastinating and put a deposit down as the wait list is just growing. I love my model 3 but its absurd resale value(way higher than I paid) and the opportunity to get another iZEV grant is too much to resist. I chatted with an i5 driver, who claimed to be a former Model 3P owner, at a parking lot a few months ago. He said there was basically no comparison where the model 3 fell short with the exception of off the line speed and the supercharger network. Just a matter of time before there’s third party charging at superchargers and I’m not that concerned about the marginal acceleration difference—still super fast. I’ll definitely get at least another ev before the cyber truck comes along and I hope this might be one of them.
Yeah they are rare. For a 580 km journey you’d definitely need to fast charge once and then again on the way back—the 110 volt takes a few days from empty to full. Even if you have a few days to charge, it’s worth It to buy a high voltage portable charger—$300 to $700. Doesn’t need special wiring just a stove, dryer, welder or RV plug. Cold does affect range but it’s mostly exaggerated.
Here you go:Sorry I waiting for the supercharging solar cells for the top of the vehicle....
Pretty sure you need to have a driver's side mirror on the outside, and a rear view mirror in Canada. Camera systems will not probably be viable, because of video/camera failure/electrical failure. So laws have to be changed.Here you go:
Wow that's crazy long wait these days.Just an update, I got to test drive one, and have placed my order. Should get it around spring or summer 2024.
Definitely not the vehicle to get if you need something right away.

They told you 2024? That’s awesome! If you’re in the lower mainland, would you care to share what dealership? I saw one that only did paid test drives through the Turo peer car sharing app. If I’m not mistaken even a fully equipped i5 qualifies for the $5k federal grant.Just an update, I got to test drive one, and have placed my order.

2024, depending on the month, could still be 23 months awayThey told you 2024? That’s awesome! If you’re in the lower mainland, would you care to share what dealership?
