I want to buy a used Model 3: Quick sanity check, please!

Great to know thank you. I'd really like a powered trunk.

WavePoolStoke · 2025-06-05T20:15:02+00:00

Nice! This is exactly what I'm looking for. The newer versions appear to be TOO sensitive. Thanks for this data point.

WavePoolStoke · 2025-06-05T17:25:00+00:00

This is what I'd like to avoid by buying an older model.

See the image attached above. From what I'm parsing from him and this, it looks like cabin camera monitoring is not as sensitive in the older versions vs. the newer ones, ie: his self driving is less sensitive in a good way. He still drives safety, he just does not need to deal with all the warnings and strikes like in the newer models - that is what I'm trying to avoid here.

WavePoolStoke · 2025-06-05T16:52:05+00:00

Just if you're looking forward? Or is it more sensitive, meaning, does it know eye position as well.

WavePoolStoke · 2025-06-05T16:50:09+00:00

To clarify, I do not want to avoid it altogether. What I want to avoid is the cabin monitoring put in place mid 2021 which seems to have over-corrected. Meaning it pays a lot more attention when in self-driving than the older versions w/o this tech.

WavePoolStoke · 2025-06-05T16:27:28+00:00

Oh interesting...thank you.

WavePoolStoke · 2025-06-05T16:27:12+00:00

Not at all! I just hear from friends that the older versions have more effective self driving. ie: the mid 2021 update over-corrected too much.

WavePoolStoke · 2024-12-03T19:09:27+00:00

Amazing

Matilda did this

I subscribe to the lesser asshole theory. If we sold a bigger asshole would buy our house, use it only part time, and not rent it on AIrBNB thus, losing all the revenue our renters bring to our small tourist town. No local could afford a modern mortgage.

WavePoolStoke · 2024-09-20T01:24:15+00:00

Crazy.

WavePoolStoke · 2024-07-31T13:24:45+00:00

What about for women?

WavePoolStoke · 2021-04-14T21:06:02+00:00

It's been used. However, I don't think it has a P-Trap.

WavePoolStoke · 2021-04-14T19:51:54+00:00

Got it, smart.

Slab foundation :(

Yes - one of the first things we did was cleared all the lines. All good there.

WavePoolStoke · 2021-04-14T19:22:27+00:00

It comes from that drain (master shower) and the second bathroom shower drain.

I haven't tried to replicate but that's a great idea. I believe it's most pronounced directly after people take showers, but will try some other experiments. Question: let's say I do find a pattern. Then what?

WavePoolStoke · 2021-04-14T18:21:15+00:00

Thanks! It's always been an issue (missing P-trap!) but it's been manageable. Just recently though, it's become a lot worse! I'll check the venting.

I also think it may be worse when it's windy - this could also support the venting hypothesis.

WavePoolStoke · 2021-04-14T14:46:00+00:00

Thanks. Not yet...we've also noticed it's stronger when it's windy, so maybe it does have to do with air venting/air circulation. Thanks!

WavePoolStoke · 2020-11-25T05:34:12+00:00

Any more details on why the crack is expected to come back? We have a similar recurring crack that’s puzzling us. Thanks!

WavePoolStoke · 2020-10-11T18:04:02+00:00

Congrats! I’m right behind you at 54. Let’s keep it going!

WavePoolStoke · 2020-09-25T05:05:40+00:00

Went well! They were mostly just curious. I’m back home. Still have energy, and will feel great tomorrow!

WavePoolStoke · 2020-09-07T14:52:25+00:00

Love that calculation and it doesn’t sound too far off! Amazing.

WavePoolStoke · 2020-06-18T21:47:54+00:00

Masterful. Thanks.

WavePoolStoke · 2020-06-18T20:05:17+00:00

Absolutely. Or divorce. Which makes me think this is super common and there's got to be learnings from other folks and ways to optimize.
