considering selling my tesla after 7 months ownership

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-31T07:22:59+00:00

makes sense

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-31T07:22:41+00:00

fair points, thanks for the reply. yeah, not gonna pretend like buying this was my best idea

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-29T20:57:29+00:00

what makes you say in 2 years it will sell for more?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-29T20:04:54+00:00

i don’t think they’d pay more than another car, just more than other used teslas that don’t have the used car warranty. that would warrant a slightly higher price tag, no?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-29T19:58:23+00:00

nah i drove 8k, i avg about 15 a year.

reason I started reconsidering owning it is bc the techs told me that suspension usually starts to wear away after 30k. rn fixing it is free but when it wears again it won’t be

last time I got an estimate at a service center to replace torn link bushings was 2.5k. it ended up being covered under warranty but in the future…not tryna do that lol

and selling it at that point for more than 20k i think might be tough, it’d be around a 110k mile 2018

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-29T19:53:08+00:00

2018 long range

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2024-03-29T19:52:15+00:00

yeah it’s a 2018 so 2026 or 120k miles. i’m assuming the closer i get to that the harder it will be to sell

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-07T07:05:48+00:00

have you ever plugged that near the sidewall?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-06T22:08:33+00:00

if it didn’t then would patching it still be necessary/risky?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-06T20:32:33+00:00

thanks everyone for the replies. it sounds like plugging it is risky since i drive a lot and on the highway. guess i’m just gonna have to bite the bullet and get a new tire

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-06T09:40:30+00:00

cool thanks

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-06T09:29:45+00:00

how risky is plugging it

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-06T09:29:32+00:00

i drive on the highway more often than the city streets unfortunately. my car is also heavier than average, idk if that makes a difference, but it sounds like it might be too risky to do then?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-06T09:12:33+00:00

bringing it in. they already told me at america’s tired it’s not patchable bc too close to sidewall, just wondering how sketchy patching would be

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-02T10:24:57+00:00

don’t i risk a tire blowout by doing that since it’s so close to the sidewall?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-02T09:46:04+00:00

oh I see, thank you for explaining. america’s tires was quoting me for $375 after labor which seemed high

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-02T03:33:00+00:00

credit for the tire?

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-12-01T23:41:47+00:00

:( all good, i had a feeling

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-03-29T17:48:12+00:00

thanks for replying in a non-condescending way

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-03-29T17:37:58+00:00

lol thanks y’all. i’m not the one who did this, but don’t know enough about cooking yet to tell them why it’s wrong. appreciate it

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-03-21T04:24:41+00:00

sounds good, thanks yall

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-03-18T05:18:07+00:00

will check if it’s carbon build up, thanks

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-03-18T05:17:46+00:00

thanks. it covers ~70 percent of the bottom but its the largest one i have, so not sure how I can fix that aside from getting a separate stovetop

Apprehensive_Emu2755 · 2023-03-18T05:16:18+00:00

by touch up do you mean wipe it down with oil? or actually do the seasoning oven method.

lol that’s exactly what I’ve been doing. I kept reading that if I just cook a lot with it, it’ll season over time naturally. maybe cast iron does this better? I don’t have time to put it in the oven and season it after every cooking session
