I'd consider buying it off him if he wants. Any idea which one he ordered?

How do you check you your spot number?!?

twitchyzero 08-01-2017 09:04 PM

haha what the fuck, using the tablet interface to open the glove compartment?
the Model 3 actually isn't filmed in this video...just dont want to disappoint anyone hoping to see it in the 11 min video (he's sitting in his model S i think)

Why do you like it?

Most people actually hate it. The problem is simply that they don't work that great. Very finnicky stuff that works whenever it wants, and you get shafted if you have to replace the windshield. I'd rather have the manual control ones; I mean, are we really that lazy to manually control a knob?

I can't wait! It's going to be great!

asian_XL 10-30-2017 06:48 PM

the door and trunk hinges scare me.

twitchyzero 10-30-2017 10:23 PM

wonder if traditional mfgr like bmw toyota gm will also make elec vehicles 99% controlled through the console even for basic functions ie. wipers, glove box etc.

Along with that, the more you use the go pedal, the more yoru usage drops. One of my buddies took his Model X to Penticton this weekend and had to stop twice to charge it. Apparently 150kmh, while smooth on the Coq, really drains the batteries.

That said, he hit the charging station in Hope, another in Merritt, and was able to park right in front of his hotel leaving his X plugged in overnight.

It's a pretty amazing vehicle though. I was really impressed with it's tech, fit, and finish.

What is the anticipated insurance rates for the model 3?

UnknownJinX 10-31-2017 07:04 PM

Watched bits of the video.

I still don't like how the front looks.

And is the door popper mechanical or electrical?

Otherwise, looks solid. Can be a pretty good commuter if you have your own garage and charger set up.

asian_XL 10-31-2017 09:52 PM

like it or not, I definitely don't want to see this again

Both. There is a fail safe mechanical mechanism near the drivers door handle if the electrical button fails. Not sure if there is one on every door though.

Just the front two, none for the back two.

It looks like the 3's handles are completely mechanical in the video
