I'm just shy of 65k miles on that "old grille"

This car is holding up really well. It has 3-4 minor dings (2 are my own damn fault, including one on the interior aluminum trim around the screen -- which is real metal, not metalicized plastic…)

In the comments:

"Still drives better than my wife"


EDIT: Side note: I requested a refund on my Model 3 deposit. If the car is great I'll get one when they catch up with demand. If between now and then something goes horribly wrong, I want the $1000 in my pocket.

If MD didn't take away my assault rifle, I could have protected myself while walking on the sidewalk.
