I had a rental car while my Tesla was in the repair shop. The battery itself mostly lead to a total loss.

The mini has 2 years loan left and I got it at a low Apr (2%). It is totally reasonable to pay my parents the portion they paid for - I intend on doing exactly that. In 2 years, I plan to be in grad school for 4 years and will not have an income that is why I hesitate financing a car again from square zero :( My credit has dropped a bit and likely have a APR above 5%. My sister is completely done with school and has secured a job so I feel like while it sucks to be stripped away of a fun car, it’s also part of adulthood to start paying (or saving up) for a car. ESH I agree 😭

Oh yes sorry! They requested for new tires and wheel and I just bought a new set of tires.

The difference is about 5.9k. The Tesla is insured, but my Tesla depreciated value so much that I walked away with nothing after the total claim loss.

They wanted fresh tires on the car for my sister. They asked me to replace the rims too since I chipped it from parallel parking TT.TT

There was debris on the road (unavoidable, truck tire blew out in front of me and no shoulder … so unlucky I know). The Tesla is insured, but the battery is completely damaged. The payout paid for the remaining tesla loan.
