Nope.

It would do about as well here as the Smart car did. Or the iQ. Or the Think. Or the....

So glad the wife and I never had kids. What have you done to make the world a better place?

Davey was my best and only friend from k-6th grade and really gave credence to the final words in the movie Stand By Me, “I never had any friends later on like I had when I was 12.” Rather, I am 43 now and I still have never found a friend quite like him later in life. Sadly I will never get to tell him face to face

That’s not really true.  I live in red NC and the charging infrastructure supports my Model 3 just fine as a primary, family of four vehicle.  We take it to the beach, Norfolk, Asheville, Waynesville.  I’d drive to DC the next time we plan a trip, or to see friends in Atlanta.  It’s only real limitation is they chose

It’s fixed right now. On currently deployed Supercharging, a Model 3 LR adds about 10-15% to a well-planned trip. Give me a few examples relevant to yourself and I can make a few test plans.  I’m always curious what people’s limiting use cases are.

My son came up with a theory that the person calling himself Mysterio from another universe is actually Loki from the split-off Endgame timeline with the tesseract he stole. He went on a long rant explaining how he reached this conclusion, and ... I really couldn’t refute it.

E. Honda approves

Probably using a snake for an arrow like Thulsa Doom.

I used to be an instagramer like you,

Yes, but no heat. Air cooled is what they used last time and we saw how that worked out. 

North Carolina owner here.  I installed 3M Crystalline 70.  Also, I started using the phone app to pre-cool my car (obviously if you make plans spur of the moment it’s not always applicable) and between the two I haven’t had a hot car - it’s always a pleasant temp when I use it, compared to my old non-precooling

You cool your car down from your phone before you get it. And the dual motor is a game changer. Imagine a bmw M3 with two v8’s (one front one rear) that literally operate at the speed of light. That’s a Tesla. 

Your math is way off. Actually your entire post is way off. A basic Civic with the 1.5L Turbo 4cyl and CVT (most common drivetrain) gets a combined 35mpg. The avg driver in the US drives around 12,000 miles a year. 12,000/35 = 343 gallons of gas per year.. at $2.50/gal.. thats $857 in gas per year. How in the hell did

You can set maximum interior temperature before the climate control kicks on while it’s parked. Of course this consumes some battery, though not as much as I’d have thought, maybe 10 miles of range over the course of a work day. I had a model 3 through a few hot days late last summer and it was never unpleasant

I will cool itself easily to keep the car always under 105 in the summer and of course you can cool it further before you get in remotely. 

Because you can actually purchase this vehicle as opposed to waiting until “early 2020.” And you can get this in every state as opposed to just a few launch states for the Volvo. And the Tesla has a supercharger network. And it’s an American car (if that’s your sort of thing).

Cool, right after the end of the $7,500 Tesla tax credit. Still, in Colorado you’d get the $3,750 fed tax credit, $5,000 state tax credit, so the car would be $26,250. Not bad.

Looks like they all have the glass roof.
