zacpizzy : Well when you get it, send us some pictures! LOL.....I know you will.

@cbear : I definitely will. I'm paying off my 2020 Corolla 3x faster to trade its value toward the Tesla, and the price won't be as much âœ¨

zacpizzy : It may not be "at ease" as much as you think. You will have to plan your trip around the location(s) of the charging stations and those get pretty few and far between in some of the Western states away from the West Coast. The electricity is not free and some of the super charging stations have a per Kwh fee that approaches the cost of gasoline

@Gabbypop : I seen some videos saying the average charge is about double what it is charging at home, but still 2-3x less than gas. Also Tesla has a goal to have a supercharger every 100 miles in the next couple years. I won't mind waiting on charging & can do other things.

@zacpizzy : Wow. I wish I could afford a Tesla. Ds's ex-wife bought one. That's typical of how she spends her alimony.

@CaffeineFree : I calculated if I make $300 daily for the next 4 months, I can buy one this Fall & still be able to invest in crypto too âœ¨ It'll be really hard but will make life so much better & efficient. I'm actually almost there and make $80K & just $30K more; then next year I can buy a house too, since the Tesla will cut lots of costs like gas & rent. I do lots of overnights with pets to save rent, and I no longer need to pay for days in between ðŸ’š

@Rocklady2020 : Yes they do & the steering wheel as well ðŸ˜ I'm most excited I can keep this car 15-20 years after getting it, 3-4x as long as a normal car, based on my driving patterns now.

I want one, but the one I want is the Model S Plaid, black with self-driving capability. Only problem, it is $155,000.

zacpizzy: no sir the steering wheel heats up that's crazy . Well I know you will have it by next year

@Rocklady2020 : There's a control for that setting; knowing me I'll never use it or heated seats lol ðŸ˜‚

@enzo : It must be because it can travel at ludicrous speed âœ¨âœ¨ I love your username â¤ï¸âœ¨

Jonn : Thank you for the tips, and me too! I do look up to him, and we think alike âœ¨âœ¨âœ¨ This car will be a lot better with my lifestyle. I often sit in the car and work on things with my phone in peace & quiet, and Teslas will allow you to use climate control without running the engine; you can even sleep in one when traveling. I love the car is made to last 1 million miles, which is 4x longer than my Toyota ðŸ–¤â¤ï¸

@zacpizzy : I know almost nothing about Teslas. If you run the heat or A/C how quickly would it drain the battery?
