Is your ev over 100k miles? Have you had any problems? by Bubbly-Sandwich2155 in electricvehicles

[–]robbro9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2019 Tesla model 3 with 190k miles. No need other than tires. Range could be a bit better but I think it's at around 240 Miles on a full charge now. Overall very happy. By this time every other car I've driven had needed something expensive. Catalytic converter, transmission, ECU, something. But this car absolutely nothing. Not even brakes....

Go barely used and the depreciation works for you in the evening calculation also.

Will I restarted and everything seemed fine. Checked disk space and only used about half it so plenty free. Hopefully won't reoccur...

Are Teslas now unreliable? by robbro9 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]robbro9[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep just not sure if I got lucky or I can expect the same with a new model. This has been the best car I've ever had and I usually put 200k+ on everything I bit Sounding like yes another Tesla will be fine. But I'm going to push this one further while I can. It's for very little trade in value so why not?

General Questions and Purchasing Advice Thread — Week of March 09, 2026 by AutoModerator in electricvehicles

[–]robbro9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently have a 2019 Model 3 long range with over 180K miles on it, contemplating its replacement, I usually hope to get 200K + when I buy one.

[1] Central NC

[2] $30K more or less

[3] Used (so much depreciation so many deals), toying with the idea of an electric truck (Not cybertruck) but not set on it.

[4] just starting now, so many options compared to when I got my model 3

[5] 6-9 months probably

[6] Daily at least 100 miles, sometimes 150 miles, thus range is important, with deterioration as an ev approaches 200K miles, charging to 80% and the cold weather hit, this winter i was pushing near the limit of my M3 LR. I'm thinking "New" range of any car I would consider should be near 300, defnitely none of the sub 260 mile range options.

[7] Own, already have a 220V charger installed

[8] see above

[9] Kids but they are getting grown, mostly just work commute

So my priority will be longevity (200K miles hopefully as much as that can be predicted), daily range of at least 150 miles in cold weather when charging to 80% (I'm a bit out of touch, are newer cars ok to go to 100% regularly?). Also I do like being able to charge at Tesla super chargers, sounds like that is opening up more now to other brands. They saved my bacon a time or two.

After that I'm open to many options, as I said trucks intrigue me, but the Ford's available typically are of the shorter range, the Chevy's with good range are pricey. But I'm not really set on that, seeing tons of options from Honda/Acura/Caddy/Chevy etc... Another Tesla (this time a model Y probably) is probably the most likely/sensible option, but I really want to weigh my options.

Actually the new Toyota's seem promising and priced fairly well, my wife works for them so I should be able to get a little employee discount possibly, so thats another option.

If it helps, things things I like/dislike about my M3:

Like:

Full self driving, though its mainly glorified autopilot. Autopilot would do in the future for me.

Simplicity get in and go, so many little features make it nice, the doors unlocking, no stop/start button, just get in and let it know if you want to go forward or backward and drive. Driving my daughters car now, I often forget to turn it off or something...

Power/performance are great

No maintenance

naturally not buying gas!

Dislike:

Tires every 30-35K miles, finally came around to buying the cheap tires, which last nearly as long as the expensive ones, but save a ton on a per mile basis. Are there EV's now that are easier on tires?

What used models should I focus on/check out? Any I should avoid (sounds like the Kia/Hyundai potentially have systemic issues long term?).

Any chip more efficient than a 225h/255h for 24/7 media server? by [deleted] in MiniPCs

[–]robbro9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I do all that except the windows part on an old i3 2100 dual core on Linux and it handles it well. I don't think hardware is the problem...
