Hey Alan, I don't know if you still think you have a home charging issue. I have talked a few times to a guy who owns two Tesla's here in Anderson SC (trying to buy a Tesla in SC needs its own thread )
He had issue with a home connection too, but He runs a German owned plastics firm and installed a charging station in his company parking lot. Is this do able at your office? Google even has a picture of his Model S parked poorly in front of his building https://www.google.com/maps/place/FR...4d-82.6045758#

Yeah, I never asked him, but I bet he took the pictures.
I see his wife in the S most of the time lately. He now has an X https://www.google.com/maps/place/FR...4d-82.6045758#

I really need to drive a model 3 (or, you know, not). Having driven multiple Model S's, I'm a "nah" on that.
I'm told that the 3 is much more playful with vastly improved chassis tuning. I think a RWD version with the "track mode" stability control programming would be pretty perfecto. ... aside from the cost. |

I seem to be the only one who has driven a model 3 and was not that excited about it.

I really kind of hate the interior, but that kind of thing I typically get used to (I hated the interior in the Mazdaspeed as well, but 204,000 miles later it doesn't bother me ). Oddly the exterior styling of the 3 has grown on me.
At this point I think the only reason I don't own one is cost. I love having no car payments and a big deposit into the investment account every week. |
