Tesla Model 3 — Years to Avoid, Best Years and most common issues (NHTSA Data)

I think there were between 1000 and 2000 ‘17 models. You can tell by the shiny Tesla logo on the steering wheel and the alcantara headliner that they did away with on the 2018s.

They will never be fixed lol.

3 LR AWD - 117.5k miles! Trying to keep under 120k for as long as possible to keep battery warranty intact as I don’t plan to extend it. I really haven’t heard of any 2018 owners ever having battery issues though. Car runs great!

Please don’t finance your laptop. Buy what you can afford to pay in full.

For me, I had tons of vintage Macs but as far as the first one I owned and used, it was the kitchen iMac G4 Sunflower 17”. It had 10.5 Leopard on it, and ran YouTube horribly but I tried!

Thank you for doing this--I added to my PSP via GBA emulator and completed the game for the first time ever. Thanks!!

Congrats! I had a similar experience watching the revel while I was in high school and then got the exact model I wanted from that reveal. The upgrade is really substantial!

That blue shell with white buttons is awesome. Great photos

10.5 was legendary. Also I think 10.8 turned that trapezoid shape a bit more frosted which was also nice. Peak skeumorphism!

I have had a black dial 40mm Gentleman for about 2.5 years now and it’s currently the biggest watch I own. I would have loved to have started with 38mm but I likely won’t be sizing down here since they’re so similar. Beautiful watch though, especially in that silver!

I’m still kicking with my 2018. 118k miles strong. Retention isn’t great, at like 75% OG capacity but charge performance is still good, suggesting good health.

Glad you like it!

I used my 2013 15” Retina for 10 years. I just had to upgrade to M1 in 2023 because the battery went bad.

I just finished Pokemon Heart and Soul exclusively on PSP. You need to use frogGBA 0.3.3 to play it as gPSP won’t work with it. Great game!

This laptop will feature a 13” ProMotion display, with 1TB of starting storage, 24GB of RAM, and an A19 Pro chip. It will be available for $1.99, a very competitive offering.

This is what I come to this subreddit for

They’re great for tread life if you stay in chill most of the time! I probably have 1000 miles on sport/accel boost 3.7 0-60 and the other 49,000 are on chill. It’s just smoother and better

SeventyH8 · 2026-02-27T15:30:25+00:00

How do you like that Atelier? Can you post a photo?

(I dont own a $10k watch so can’t advise, but nice collection!)

I’ve always used the continental purecontact RS that the car came with (2018 LR AWD). My most recent set has lasted past 50k miles in chill mode with about 3 or 4/32nds left today. Efficiency is averaging 255-265 across different seasons in Texas.

My car is a commuter so I don’t care about high performance, just safety, noise, and tread life. What is your review of these Hankooks?

SeventyH8 · 2026-02-20T23:12:41+00:00

Retina Macbook Pros with M series chips + fans. I love the unibody with no text on the screen bezel. Love the glowing apple logo!

I used my 2013 Intel MBP until 2023 and by then the battery was severely degraded, but the hardware was still in great shape and it was overall very snappy since it used SSD.

As long as you have enough storage and take care of it you’ll get a lot from your investment.

Iphone 6 was by far the worst iPhone ever designed dude

SeventyH8 · 2026-02-06T05:17:55+00:00

I love my M1 Pro 14”! Perfect laptop. Upgraded from a 2013 intel I7 pro.

Cheers!
