    I'm not about all the tech, I can drive my own car and put a Bluetooth head unit in and save myself 35k..

    Def makes sense to get as a throw away commuter for some, but I can see why not being able to charge at home kinda ruins it all...

    My neighbor bought a model 3 in 2020 and now has a little one on the way, so he inquired about trading his 3 in for Y and Tesla offered 15k for a car with 35k on the clock LOL

    They sell for WAY more than that on the used market, but I think it's hilarious that Tesla lowballed that hard.

    Honestly, if you want a commuter to save money with.. Get a 2003 camry... Park it on the street, go to walmart and get super tech gallons of oil for 4 dollars and put 500k miles on it.

    I'm not about all the tech, I can drive my own car and put a Bluetooth head unit in and save myself 35k..

    Honestly, buying anything new for a commuter IMO is just stupid.. Spend money on something you'll actually enjoy.

    Honestly, I like the idea of EVs. I've driven several Tesla Model 3 and Polestar 2 rentals. I've also driven the rest of the standard rental fleet (Turbo4 Mustang and Camaro, C300, various Volvos, Toyota, Chevy, Kia, Honda, Subaru). The EVs were on par with the rest, maybe even had some better tech for long highway drives. My only gripe is with the charging network. I really like Tesla fast chargers, I get really annoyed at slow non-tesla Level 3 chargers. It's also annoying that I'm limited to Tesla or Everything Else for charging.

    I don't drive that often, but I could see getting an EV for daily driving or road trips so the e30 is saved for fun stuff. The only issue for me is that I live in a city and my single car garage is reserved for the e30 or car work, so I wouldn't be able to charge at home and I don't like the idea of having to take the car to get charged (even though its about the same time as stopping for gas).
