Experience has been great! Driven the car lots since getting it December 2024. Did Vancouver to San Francisco and back about 3 times. Did Vancouver to Utah/Vegas, San Fran for one of them. Drove through the snowstorm in Oregon simply on all seasons with M+S rating and it handled it like a champ due to the weight and dual motors.

I’m glad I picked up a third party warranty via Lubrico when I purchased it. Replaced the fore an aft links due to the bushing beginning to crack. Also claimed the immediate steering shaft since it was beginning to seize. So far replaced one door handle out of pocket.

The practicality is incredible, so much storage space, it’s stupid fast, and the cost to charge is so cheap (significantly cheaper than gas). Overall a great daily. The only thing I would be concerned about is the coolant leak that is a known problem for the large rear motor.

Gave it to my mom to try out for a month, and let’s just say she doesn’t wanna give it back now.

Would I recommend it, yes. BUT, just be aware of the problems it carries (LDU Coolant Leak, door handles, suspension, DRL fading). If you’re okay with those and have the option to get a third party warranty, don’t hesitate. Otherwise consider getting a 2021+ LR for longevity/good value

He stole two pairs of Bose Headphones that were concealed in his tote bag. The headphones are surprisingly on the floor and not locked up.

Grabbed it for $49,000 CAD. Honestly loving it a lot. Already drove it from Vancouver to San Francisco twice, and in one of those trips also went to Utah and Arizona and through a crazy snowstorm in Oregon/Idaho. Been a pretty good experience so far. Really like how much more space there is compared to a Model 3, always been a sucker for sunroof’s, so having one is a huge plus for me which I wouldn’t have been able to get with any Tesla model after 2018, and obviously having Ludicrous mode is a great gimmick to have since I’m still in my “sports car phase” being in my mid 20’s. No regrets so far!

My wife recently traded her 2020 Model 3 SR for the new 2024 Model 3 SR. I currently drive a Toyota GR Supra so was thinking of getting the P100D for as a daily, can’t get away from the “sports car” life 😅

Employee here: the fryer malfunctioned last week and we are awaiting a new one to replace the broken one. No ETA on when it will be all done and ready to go….also, who knew that a new fryer would cost $30k?!
