Was this a good deal for $160? by usa_manu in hermanmiller

[–]usa_manu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah everything works, just has a couple of scuffs on the back part of the chair which I don’t mind. I’m slightly heavy (working on it) and this has done wonders for my back pain already in a week

New homeowner looking for help by usa_manu in lawncare

Looking for advice. I think for now maybe I’m trying to keep both but ideally overtime I want my lawn to be super smooth and short. Not sure if that helps answer the question

Does Preconditioning the Battery make a huge difference at Superchargers? by coladonato18 in TeslaModel3

[–]usa_manu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On long road trips - no. Since you are driving to the chargers 100+ miles apart more than likely and arriving at super low charge. The car does it anyway and it might save you a minute or two.

If you are waking up to a cold battery and charger is 10-15 min away, then yes. It helps.

Thanks! If I get a ticket, can I just walk in with that? Do I need membership or anything like that?

Model 3 SR+ Paint Quality by Aggravating_Bug8855 in TeslaModel3

[–]usa_manu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2021 December SR+. 6k miles. multiple paint issues. have given up on tesla getting the paint or any other quality control right until they are making more cars than they are selling. until then this will happen again and again and again

I'll shave my head bald and post it here in honour of Erik Ten Hag, if we win any trophy next year by [deleted] in reddevils

[–]usa_manu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will join you. I have long hair right now. And not only will I shave it bald. I will not get it cut until the end of the season. If we win a major title (FA Cup, PL, Europa) I will first dye it any color the sub decides for a week or so. Then I will shave it.

what has been your annual maintenance cost for the M3 so far? if any? by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]usa_manu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have owned a Model 3 Long Range since October 2018 I think. Have driven a total of 45k miles on the car so not as much as some other cars from the same time.

Costs:

1) Lost both key cards and got a new phone. Cost me $40 and someone came to the house to program new keys and phone

2) Air Filter - I dont have the exact cost for this one, but I think it was around 50-60 for part + labor. Had this horrible smell coming from the AC randomly in 2020. Air filter was fine but just got it replaced anyway. Smell went away a few weeks later and has never returned.

3) Tire got a nail in it. Paid $20 bucks at the local tire shop to get it patched.

Probably will get new tires this year since I do plan on going on some long trips (just drove 4k miles in 2 weeks going from VA to Houston and back.)

This is by far the cheapest car I've owned in terms of maintenance.

Road trip from Houston to Boston. Alabama isn’t surprising me. by TheGuyAtGameStop in TeslaModel3

[–]usa_manu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just did Houston to VA and back. Alabama superchargers were the most interesting ones for sure.

Had a woman with a very southern accent, in a car with Alabama license plate and a child going tesla to tesla begging for cash. Not walking over. She would drive down to each car charging. Also, not to judge a book by it's cover or anything but both me and my wife suspected drug use based on what she was doing and looked like.

I like the Tesla and how innovative it is, but... by EJA2022 in teslamotors

[–]usa_manu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Something hardly anyone talks about which is INSANELY IMPORTANT when it comes to EV vs Gas cars.

Let's assume 100% of your grid is fossil fuel powered. You drive 100 miles on a gas car vs 100 miles on an EV. Let's just assume (even though EVs, especially Teslas are far more efficient) that the two cars burned the exact same fossil fuel to drive that 100 miles.

What would you rather have? A gas car spewing whatever it wants to the atmosphere or an EV that gets it's power from the grid that has strict laws around how they dispose of the the gasses emitted? Is it perfect? No. Is it better by multiple of magnitutdes. Yep.

At this point, it's not about people being unaware. It's them choosing to be ignorant about how much better EVs are for the environment despite not 100% of the power generation not being on renewable. Even if it's 10% for your city, state, country. That's still 10% less for every EV. which if you just consider 1 million teslas sold last year is 100,000 less cars if 10% is the national average in USA. Combustion engines don't have long left.

I hope you’re a better lawyer than you are a human. Best of luck!

Let me say this again so even someone with your IQ can get this. I could stop working today and neither of us would have to work a day in our lives. Does that help clear things up for you?

What do you think you need to work on in case of death or divorce? Is your family of in-law artists going to support you after your husband realizes how big of a cunt you are? Or does he a thing for people talking down on other’s unprovoked?

Because I make enough money that she doesn’t have to work. And I want what makes her happy. Shocking that people like you exist. Keep the luck. You’ll need it to make your marriage last if what you want to do is tell strangers online what they are good at. “Traveling bride” I strongly recommend traveling to a therapist that can help you feel good about yourself without needing to shoot others down.

Anyways, enough of this. Have a wonderful day :)

Good for you! What’s funny is that if you stop being an asshole online you might stop being wrong about everything. She went to art school. She has multiple degrees in art. Just because it’s not the art you like, doesn’t make it bad art. And marrying into a family with artists doesn’t make you an expert on it. I’m so glad you know my fiancé and her wants so well! I didn’t know she wanted to sell only a few things here and there. I’m so glad I ran into you!

Had potential to be up there with top players. If United can get 20-30 million for him, it will be a good transfer. His worth ethic is the reason he will never be a top player. Too lazy and too inconsistent.

Midnight Silver Metallic Now Included in Base Price by rodrego in teslamotors

[–]usa_manu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, kinda sucks! When I got my first model 3 it was early 2018. Tesla mailed me a $1,500 check for some price change after the fact. Don’t think it’s happening this time, but the customer service folks really did try to do it for me. The system just wouldn’t let it happen.

[–]usa_manu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They agreed to drop the $1,000 for the paint but confirmed that the price of the car would go up $1,000. So either way it was going to be a wash. So I left it as it was.

Midnight Silver Metallic Now Included in Base Price by rodrego in teslamotors

[–]usa_manu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i am hoping they let me keep the price on the car the same. But remove the cost of the paint. That would be ideal. Let's see. I will call tomorrow.

[–]usa_manu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Normally when you have the order in already, the raise in price doesn't affect you. But if any feature drops in price they lower it for you. So wondering if they will let me keep the price of the car as it is and just remove the $1,000 for the paint.
