I don’t trust the gov with a single dollar. They have shown us over and over again they are inferior to private enterprise. So clearly public transit is a direct result of that. It will never change.
It will always suck. Doesn’t matter how much you wanna grease your local politician

$299 a month lease bruh. Buying is for suckers at the moment. With 7% interest rates and savings accounts paying $5.5% It's actually $307/month + $5700 down. And that's for 10k/miles a year. Hyundai Ioniq5 & 6 are better deals and better cars. ? https://i.postimg.cc/cthtwzZs/IMG-2733.jpg

You should give a fuck about both OF COURSE. But no lease deal on a Model 3 is going to move me to action, even though it should by pure green visor car hater economics.

Just shows that I don't have enough money to not give a fuck about $140K. But I do have enought money to not give a fuck about $40K.

$299 a month lease bruh. Buying is for suckers at the moment. With 7% interest rates and savings accounts paying $5.5% I'd consider a Prius Crime a long term hold. Also, shelling out $40K for an acceptable appliance that gets 50mpg is fine with me. Paying $140K for a Porsche when that money spins o...

Yep, I'd rather have a Prius, but I think a Model 3 is quite a bit cheaper at this point. Also, I drove a 2014 Prius the other day. Holy shit, biggest POS I've driven in a long time. It feels like a 5K pound boat. Fully loaded Prius Crime is the same price as the starting price for a Model 3, $39K ...

You're not a man who is looking for cheap 0FG transport and has a knack for behemoth SUVs from a bygone era with plenty of brubs. A model 3 fills a different nieche. IMO it is the easiest to use, cheapest to own EV vehicle one can purchase in the USA today. And it CAN be significantly cheaper than ...

I mean I had 2 teslas... and the new model 3 leases at $299... I think if I needed transport today in cali I'd pick the tesla hands down over any other sedan period. The value is hard to beat. But it is clearly not a very "desirable" vehicle in any way shape or form, other than saving money.

How is a Korean EV any better ? :nope: 5N looks good to me. Model 3 is a heinous crime against everything good and holy. Agree to disagree. The Model 3 is a better looking car IMO.

Eh … the new model 3 “plaid” is around the corner. Likely 1000lbs lighter and a far cheaper and easier to own alternative
But then you would have to drive a model 3, which is pure seppuku.

OK i am not alone in this... I always found the claims of "shit just hoses off" exaggerated with both the car and the wheels. Coated or not. I do find that dirt doesn't stick AS much to a coated car but it may be a marginal improvement at best... and it is a bit easier to clean. With whee...

I think the proportions of the C8 are off. So it only looks good if the color and all is just right. Yep. Which is kind of a turnoff if you're shelling out $85K. Gotta double it for a P car with an engine that sounds like a blender and send your salesman to Tahiti for life… and the SA every year
